This sounds like another surgery.

Sounds to me he's shocked and disappointed that he has further healing to do.

Roy won't be at the game. Same reason--needs time to recover from the news of his retirement. Other interviewers used the word "setback" to Aldridge while interviewing him and I almost barfed. He was only out about 10 days. No comparison to Oden. Aldridge said it's not his heart keeping him out for 10 days, it's the healing of where they cut. (I hope it wasn't where I think it was.)

Elliot is a hardcore video gamer and says Aldridge can't figure out some game Elliot was talking about. Casey asked Craig whether he now hates the Lakers, now that the L.A. native has moved from the Clippers to here, and he surprisingly said "I hate the Lakers" even though he grew up idolizing Magic Johnson. Says Magic and his mother are his biggest heroes.

These guys must practice their smiles in front of mirrors because they all have smooth ones.

So far, when asked which player has most surprised during camp...ALL 5 (Gerald,Nic,CJ,Camby,Thomas) chose @ewill901 Elliot Williams

He's gonna be a stud!

 

[THE HCP]

LA said they went up through his groin! DAMN!

 

[jlprk]

This sounds like another surgery.

I meant that the "setback" was Oden being told by a doctor that he couldn't play yet, as if Oden expected otherwise. I didn't mean that Oden was told this today. He was told this the other day and that was the famous "setback" No new news here, just an extra detail about what the "setback" was. It was the doctor deciding he shouldn't play. It was certainly no surprising setback to me, and I doubt to Oden either.

LMA said the same

Did you hear that yourself, or are you using me as your source, because all I heard was him say something about his groin in the context of his procedure, and I'm only guessing they went up through it.

 

[Blazinaway]

It'll be interesting how they figure out his playing time.

SG: Matthews | Crawford | Williams

I agree but then I think about the grueling schedule, injuries and all that, he should get some burn.

Most heart procedures use the femoral artery (thigh/groin area) to insert catheters. There are wide arteries which go directly from the thigh region to the heart without much resistance.

LaMonster needs tweaks every now and then.

a "Frankenstinian" electric jolt....

He said that today when he met the press for the first time.

 

[RR7]

When was the last time(first time?) a white guy was described as well spoken?

 

[THE HCP]

Def not when they talk about Babbitt!

 

[PtldPlatypus]

When was the last time(first time?) a white guy was described as well spoken?

And when was the last time a black guy was described as a "gym rat" or having a "high motor"? We all know the racial code words.

 

[THE HCP]

Welcome FAMS!

 

[Eastoff]

Welcome FAMS!

I need to learn all these new faces (that's jamal for those uneducated like myself)

 

[THE HCP]

Correct!

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Want to get really confused?

Go look at the media day portraits of the Nets and Hornets team.

I feel like I have a good grasp of prospects and current players and I was stumped looking at these rosters.

 

[THE HCP]

Armon and Crawford look like they could be twins!

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Want to get really confused?

Always.

Could you give those of us too lazy to find them the link?

The Blazer site said in writing that the FanFest stream would start at 6:30, so I reported it here. It started at 7:00, and a couple of people were asking at 6:40 in the other thread, where is it? Sorry, I had just repeated a few hours before that what the site was saying.

 

[Mediocre Man]

I watched it.
