Woj: Robert Williams needs knee surgery

[BlazerBeav]

Cursed franchise:

 

[Strenuus]

Back to square one.

Again.

 

[Mediocre Man]

There we go

 

[B-Roy]

Jesus....for him to require surgery on a nothing burger of a play is just disheartening.

 

[Phatguysrule]

Totally expected. 100% knew this would be coming at some time. Pretty much everybody did.
I hope they can get it figured out and get him to have as much time on the court as he enjoys.

 

[Shaboid]

CLASSIC!

 

[e_blazer]

Next victim, er...man, up.

 

[TheGoldRanger]

Damn. He’s been one of my favorites so far this season. I knew it was gonna happen eventually due to his injury history. Jabari and Moses time…. Let’s go!

 

[blazerkor]

Wow! To need surgery from a play where there was very little if any shift from that knee, he didn't twist it, he didn't hyper extend it... if it buckled a little to the inside it was barely noticeable, that's rough for him and we likely won't get any value from him in the trade market during this season. Hopefully he can make it back towards the end of the season, show he can play meaningful minutes and then we can get something for him from a team in need of an impact big that probably only has a couple more seasons left in him. That's if he can even get healthy after this.

I really wish him the best. He seems so nice and is just a beast when he's able to play.

 

[LayneStaley]

This helps the top 3 pick situation

 

[SlyPokerDog]

He'll be back in time for the playoffs!

 

[LayneStaley]

Why don’t we know the injury?

 

[B-Roy]

Why don’t we know the injury?

There are probably multiple treatments they can do. A more comprehensive surgery that has him out longer or a less invasive one that could get him back sooner.

Sure, but the Blazers' next playoffs are likely 3-4 years away. Oh, yeah, that works.

 

[inconceivable]

Why don’t we know the injury?

What's playoffs?

 

[andalusian]

What's playoffs?

It's the time of the year the other teams, like idiots, continue to make their players run and jump and expose them to additional injuries.

 

[Bingo Bango]

Yep. That’s the Blazers’ story. Time after time.

 

[BlazerWookee]

This helps the top 3 pick situation

Fuck the draft.

Aaah, thanks. I remember now. I knew it sounded familiar

Is this speculation or mentioned somewhere? We don't even know what he injured from this Woj tweet, and what you're saying makes it seem like his meniscus.

 

[AldoTrapani]

We knew this was coming. Why does he even continue to play? He should retire

I think he is speculating.

My own speculation is, this will be a career ending injury. My reasoning is based on how the injury happened and his injury history.

I like Timelord's game and he seems like.a.good dude as well, so I sure hope I'm wrong.

Like I said he needs to retire. There’s no point of a career from him. Boston fans told us already

 

[PDXFonz]

Yep. That’s the Blazers’ story. Time after time.

When you play you will fall and you’ll hurt your knee

Time after time

 

[Cugel]

Time to call up some g leaguers

 

[Freshtown]

Dang, shoulda traded him when he was healthy. Wonder if a first round pick was ever on the table for him at any point after the trade.

 

[Strenuus]

Yep. That’s the Blazers’ story. Time after time.

If you're lost you can look and you will find me.

Duop Reath

hate to say it, but same here. People getting all excited about this acquisition didn’t look at his games played per season and connect that he now plays for the Blazers. Put two and two together.
