CJ breaks foot in practice

[SlyPokerDog]

Casey Holdahl ‏@CHold McCollum said he did have a screw inserted to repair his previous fifth metatarsal break

Wow, if that broken around the screw that's going to be a difficult repair.

Joe Freeman ‏@BlazerFreeman McCollum said he and #Blazers will seek advice of 2 independent doctors - one in California, one in Charlotte - to decide course of action.

Smart! Very smart!

Joe Freeman ‏@BlazerFreeman McCollum said this L foot injury & previous L foot injury feel much different. First time, he cried. This time, he thought he sprained ankle

Joe Freeman ‏@BlazerFreeman #Blazers do daily testing on feet & McCollum said: "I was one of the more even guys in terms of strength & distribution between both feet."

Maybe Oden can teach him how to rehab.

Don't like the sounds of that. Sounds like season ending surgery. Fuck, maybe he should just go ahead and retire right now....get it over with.

Note to Blazers: Starting now, NEVER NEVER NEVER draft a player with any kind of injury history. Period.

Thank you.

We wanted a PG last year, we totally should have drafted Kendall Marshall instead of that stupid Lillard injury man.

Glad we drafted Lillard in spite of his injuries.

Two words: Talus. Bone.

How about Oden or Bowie? If we'd avoided those injury-prone players we would have gotten Jordan and Durant. This franchise has been cursed by injuries, and it's time we learned our lesson.

Damn! Was looking forward to seeing what he could add to the Blazers. Reading between the lines, sounds like he will be out for the year. Hope I'm wrong.

Going to re-evaluate this tanking theory . . .

Losing CJ sucks, but I don't think he impacts our wins drastically. It was going to be a challenge to find minutes for all our guards with CJ healthy, now it just opens up minutes for Mo Williams, Wes, and possibly Barton or Crabbe. I think we'll be fine.

agreed, as long as we don't lose LMA, RoLo, or Lillard for extended games I think we're deep enough to be resilient. Though, in retrospect it's pretty lucky we signed Mo Williams with the vet. min. (or whatever) with our last roster spot instead of say a center as I was hoping.

Huge signing. Mo will be crucial to our success. His ability to play with Lillard will be significant, as well as provide scoring with the second unit.

This is just a fucking joke!
