and certainly won't motivate him to try to get back faster and play through pain for people that don't support him. Not saying it's an excuse to wait longer to play games, but it certainly could be a reason.
So you saying that if he's not rushing back from injury because people are booing him for not playing through an injury and him doing that would be cool with you?

I dislike him too, because he's an emotional, sensitive pansy. But I disagree that he has secrete, evil motives. I think he's just too emotional and scared.

He got a knee bruise. 1 year ago. He should be good to go.
Knee bruises don't typically require surgery... Also, I'm willing to bet you've never sustained a bone bruise. The word "bruise" definitely understates it. A "deep bone contusion" sucks bad.

He specifically said it wasn't an excuse.

Watch the video and listen to how he is talking. Guy seems genuinely disappointed.
Also, his "sorta" response to the question about the re-aggravation was in response to Jimmy Smith's question.
Let's see how this plays out.

It was a bone bruise of the knee, not a soft tissue contusion.
I talked to a doctor yesterday. This is all speculation, but damange from any loose bits of bone from the shattering (if any) of that outer layer of bone should have been seen and removed in the arthroscope procedure. Also, any residual damage should have been noted.
This is based on no specific knowledge that isn't in the public domain. Whether it's true or not, who knows.
So if it's something new... what incident? Which condition? Necrosis like Bo Jackson?
His injury is his business, up to NBA, team, and NBPA rules, but I'd like a diagnosis.

I expect more, too. I have already said plenty of times that I am upset that he isn't ready to play right now, but for frick's sake booing him and telling him how much you hate him does not help anything at all. Express your frustrations on here and do the rest of the cheering and support for everyone else on the team at the games.

Personally, I dislike Gordon a great deal. I would never boo him and understand that he is our best chance to win. But I still dislike him. A lot.
my thoughts as well. Guy has not shown leadership or the enthusiasm as some of the newer players. Anyone follow Ryan Anderson on twitter, dude is loving it here or so he says. Even if he's lying it's the perception of wanting to be here and wanting to fit in and belong. Gordon hasn't done it and so group that with the injury and you have what we have now.

I actually have had one, and yes they hurt. But if cared, it wouldn't stop me. It's not like his knees are torn, he is just uncomfortable.

There are plenty of people in here that I disagree with. You are the only douche. I am calling you a douche. Just you. Not those I disagree with. Just you.

you don't need to be a doctor to look at similar injuries and recover times. That, and the fact that our medical staff says THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH HIM.
Okay, show me where the medical staff says "there is nothing wrong with him."

Monty basically said it yesterday.
Monty dropped a bit of a bomb on this whole thing. Maybe Monty needs to learn to hide his frustration and keep his mouth shut.

Here's the video again. Everyone really needs to watch it and tell me if they don't think he seems sincere about being hurt and really wanting to play.

Why can't people have gray area. I neither love him nor despise him. I'm pretty pissed off at him and wish he weren't such a bitch. But since I think he's being sincere (though a total pussy) I'm not hating him. Just freaking angry.

He said there was no structural damage in the PC today
