CJ breaks foot in practice

[Natebishop3]

Would it be better to just sit the year out, make sure the foot is healed, and do the rookie season next year?

Mike Rice ‏@mikerice6 Really sorry the injury to c.j.McCollum. he was my big surprise of pre camp. He was really opening eyes. I thought he was special

So 8-10 weeks huh? So possible back in late December? I'd bring him back in January just to be safe.

He's not dead...

This has to be the most fucking idiotic post of the decade!

 

[Boise Blazer]

With the depth at that position there is absolutely no reason to rush him back at all

Casey Holdahl ‏@CHold McCollum broke his left fifth metatarsal the first time on Jan. 5, 2013 in a game against VCU.

That never worked for the last injury prone lottery pick.

Wow we were talking about having too much talent at guard. Glad olshey loaded it up.

LOL! I tweeted Rice back giving him a bad time about that.

Yeah, but in this case he broke the exact same bone in his foot that he broke last time. So obviously something wasn't healed properly.

Wtf?! He's broken the same part of his foot?

Hey sly.... Was I overreacting?

Well as much as I hate to say it, we ARE the Blazers.

Fuck me! I sure hope this season isn't riddled with injuries again. I don't know if I can take it anymore

Where have you been? This has only been mentioned three or four times in this thread.

Too busy telling people how idiotic their posts are!

At the time yes you were. I was reading the same twitter feeds you were. It was being reported as only a sprain when you started trolling. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Well if anyone is gonna know a post is idiotic; it's the guy that is an idiot!

Seems every year I find myself wondering if we can finally catch a break (no pun intended) and then I wonder if we used up all of or most of our luck on Lillard

I would stay away from gloating Mixum. You're only here because we haven't decided to re-ban you.

We've had this kinda fun since the 2007 season.

Fun as "it's really fun to see my dick fall off from herpes?"

Dwight Jaynes ‏@dwightjaynes I am told that in fifth metatarsal fractures, screws are often used to hold the bones, which would mean 7-12 weeks of recovery time

That's what I figured.

 

[KingSpeed]

Here's a thought - just a thought. Maybe we shouldn't keep drafting players who've had their college careers seriously impacted with injury?

Lillard had a previous injury

 

[KingSpeed]

The good news is we have the depth to deal with this. Barton and Crabbe are not needed. Lillard/Matthews/Williams is a fine rotation. I'm not worried about the team. I feel bad for CJ.

Exactly. It's just a bummer. I'm not worried because I think we have the depth to make it a non-factor, but it still sucks for the kid. I was excited to see how he'd do.

Blake Griffin was great after a year off.
