Yeah my dad texted me the news. I can't wait to go to some basketball games next year as a senior.

One opinion that differs doesn't..what is one thing that you agreed with majority on.

Yeah I'm sure Monty is as frustrated as we are that the guy still can't play. It's a good thing he doesn't go up to Eric and tell him he's a pussy and boo, though.

I've always been curious, why do you always have random periods inserted in your posts?

I agree that the offseason drama was unnecessary and that Gordon went about it the completely wrong way. I also agree that it's upsetting to see that the guy has had all this time to rest and still can't play. I'm ready for him to get checked out by other doctors since our guys can't find something wrong with him even though he is in pain.

Yes, and actions speak louder than words. If he's got something more serious then we need a second opinion. If he's got something less serious, like the tendonitis Jester suggested, then we need a diagnosis. Tendonitis took Jordan down, if that's what he's got people would understand. Gordon lost the benefit of the doubt with fans this summer so people will fill an information vacuum with the worst assumptions possible.

Completely agreed. I've never seen our medical staff do anything with an injury to suggest that they are competent enough to help Gordon. He needs to see someone like Andrews.

Me too. And I would probably take back some of my comments. But until then...

How long does it take a franchise player to have an MRI taken and read by an expert? Shouldn't he be on a private plane to see one right now? Why waste more time?

Being the best in the world keeps a doctor busy, or at least I would assume.

This is part of the frustration. Usually, these things are diagnosed right away. And then they go see a specialist. Right away, especially when a season is starting.

Last year he went weeks and there was no diagnosis.

Now, all over again. Very frustrating.

On a personal note, it’s clear this is tough for him, so perhaps we should try to be a bit more understanding about an injury that none of us have the training and access to properly diagnose.

Pretty much sums it up well right here. None of us should be jumping to any conclusion about his injury until we get facts from medical professionals, hopefully more than just the guys on our staff.
