		<description>Alaskan Fire Dragon you wylin&#039;, hahaha, I can hear Breen right now, &quot;Mbenga...for the game!&quot;

They need to cut the BS though &amp; get it MRI&#039;d at least so they know what they&#039;re dealing with. Maybe they scared to find something they wouldnt want him to play on? But isnt that what he&#039;s going to do anyway? Get him to the MGH and get it looked at!</description>

		<description>I think it was a natural, albeit a little “over-the-top” reaction, but only because dude was probably scared/pissed &amp; IN PAIN…

the return to the game was dramatic but why not? if it pumps up the crowd &amp; gets youre teamates hype (Cassell was downright giddy!) than why the hell not! If its gonna help the team, I’m doing cartwheels out the tunnel!

he was hurt &amp; then realized, “hey it aint so bad, so let me get back out there &amp; bring Banner 17 to the Bean…”..would you rather he stay in the locker room so that dudes like Plaschke dont accuse him of faking?</description>

		<description>PP just said he doesn&#039;t want to get an MRI after the finals
wtf?
if it were serious wouldn&#039;t the celtics organization want his knee to be diagnosed to prevent career-threatening injury (i.e. shaun livingston) 
when kobe tore his pinky up he still got it diagnosed
im not sold on whether it was fake or not
but we&#039;ll have a better idea come game 2
can anyone tell me how pierces defense was in crunch time?
did he guard kobe?
or roaming with radmanovic?

WHY DID PJ TAKE ODOM OUT AND PUT IN V-RAD WHO HAD BEEN COLD SITTING ON THE BENCH FOR 4793824823 hours?

lakers in 7...in a game that goes to 5OT
where all the starters are fouled out
and the game will be decided on a jumper by none other than...DJ MBENGA</description>

		<description>I was surprised he didnt leave on a wheelchair when he got scratched on the chest. The expression on his face looked like he needed surgery for that cut.</description>

		<description>all I’m gonna say about the Pierce injury is that 1. Perk hit him in the back of the knee (a teammate, so it’s not like he was trying to sell a foul call and Perk CLEARLY did hit him in the back of the knee) 2. He’s never been soft, injury prone, or a flopper (dude got stabbed and almost died one September and didn’t miss a game!) and 3. Why is it so hard to believe that that hurt like hell for a second then didn’t hurt as much. Anyone that’s played ball has rolled an ankle or something that hurts like hell, has to get off the court for a few, then, when the initial shock and pain wears off, they’re fine, limping a bit, but still able to play. Why’s it so hard to believe that he got hit in the back of the knee, it hurt like hell (he said he thought he felt it pop too afterwards,) but then it stopped hurting as much and he got a cortizone shot or something in the 10-15 minutes between him doing it and him coming back? 

IT&#039;S THE FINALS, HE WAS GONNA COME BACK UNLESS HE COULDN&#039;T WALK.</description>
