Also, kudos to the mods for nuking the Basketball Gods curse thread.

All glory be to the mighty basketball gods for sparing our superstar at this time from great injury and we remain humble in hopes that you keep our roster injury free in the future. The universal scales tip toward balance because of your wisdom and mercy.
 
Gods, schmods. What could go wrong now? Things are as bad as they could possibly be for the Blazers. I defy any "god" to find a way things could get any worse.

Breaking News: Jody Allen names Neil Olshey and Terry Stotts as lifetime GM and coach of the Blazers
 
If he cant extend his leg, I think its worse then they’re telling us, but Im not a doctor so could be wrong.

That the first test was inconclusive gave me hope that it isn't major. Hopefully it really is minor and just needs rest and isn't something small they can't see that could grow into something worse like Collin's foot.

However, if he can't extend his leg, it's natural to consider it might be something a little worse.
 
....so if we win three in a row and advance, does Dame return for the quarter finals?
 
Assuming it's a grade 1 MCL injury, the usual treatment is 1-3 weeks of resting it. As a pro athlete, it's possible Lillard could try to return earlier. The main risk is that he can't run and jump naturally and, in compensating for it, suffers a more serious tear.

Makes me kinda hope the lakers just end it tonight...

You ever sprained anything playing sports? Shit, I’ve done my ankle so bad it looked like a softball for weeks. I’m quite sure there is some major swelling going on.

I have definitely had tons of sports injuries, sprains, torn muscles, knee's, bones...
It could just be swelling keeping him from straightening out his knee. I hope it is, and I really hope that we don't see him play again until next season.
 
They did say the MRI machine was kinda trash in Orlando, may as well come home to a real hospital to get it done. He probably sees the writing on the wall anyway, if LeBron strikes, the league will follow.
