I'm wondering about one thing
- Thread starter funsc
- Start date
wehn he missed 1 game, I thought possibly. But:
1) I rather doubt the best way to encourage a trade to happen is to start holding a player out and claiming he's hurt.
2) and if there was one brewing they might hold Peja out for one, but not a whole week of them unless you have the world's longest closing period going on.

I heared that he will be on Injured List for next 2 years until his contract runs out and then Kings will let him go as a free agent. Don't ask where I heared this,my source is close to the organization but doesn't want their identity revealed. Ok, fine, Rick A. told me yesterday, but don't tell anyone.
I did think it was wierd that Rick just called me up like that for no reason. My phone is not listed and I think he is stalking me.

Becasue Webb's "injury" is a lot different than any other. Probably for the rest of his life, he is going to wake up in the morning and have "good" or "bad" days. I am no doctor, but maybe when the cartilage in his knee fully develops that will be the case, but I don't expect that is going to happen anytime this season.

I injured my knee last march (no where near as bad as Webb), but even now I play indoor soccer on Friday evenings and some imes my knee feels really thight for next 2-3 days and sometimes I feels just fine next day.
Ofcourse, that they have to trust the player if they are complaining about discomfort, but I'm sure there are also medical proofs too.
I think people are reading too much into Peja and Webb's absences. Why can't we just accept that they are hurting and let them get better. (It would suck now fi some kind of trade happens and I have to eat my words )

funsc - Whatever you heard, you obviously misheard.
First, Pedja has been having back spasms since he hurt his back on New Year's Eve against Utah. It had gotten progressively worse until he actually had to have help getting out of his seat on the flight to San Antonio. They did an MRI, saw nothing major wrong. He was in pain, and he was not able to even sit on the bench because of it. He was actually more comfortable stretched out on a table than he was sitting.
Tonight, in an interview shown during the game, he said the rest has been very beneficial. He fully expects to play this week. Most likely Friday or even Saturday. There were some rumors a while back, UNSUBSTANTIATED RUMORS, that said he had been held out of a game because a trade was going to be announced the next day. NOTHING further came of that. It was a rumor. We hear tons of them...
As far as Webber goes, if there is any pain or swelling at all in his knee, they are not going to let him play. The procedure he had is very serious. Players like Allan Houston and Eduardo Najera, who had the same procedure, haven't been as serious about rehab and knowing when not to force the knee. Because of that, they are not able to play with anything close to how they used to be. In fact, I believe Najera is back on the injured list AGAIN.
Webber will most likely sit out a game here or there the rest of his career. It's a small price to pay considering the alternative.
Hope that clears up your confusion.
