Blazers Lose Pryzbilla Indefinitely

Portland loses another big man to a patella injury. Pryzbilla will probably be out for a while. The Blazers just can't catch a break this year - so many injuries this year.

Its amazing how much bad luck has befallen them this season

Someone somewhere must have asserted that they were 100% sure the Blazers would win it all this year.

Or that they were 100% sure to escape this season injury-free.

What. the. FUCK. Now I have to redo the preview again. They’re dropping like flies, unfortunately.

The Spurs - now playing like sh*t again!

Poor poor Brace-ers.

HEY! That's not funny.

This is a terrible time for the team and the fan base… and myself. Man, this sucks!

We feel for you. I don’t know the last time I saw a team have this many significant injuries in season. At least Houston found out in the offseason that Yao wasn’t going to play this year.

Not funny? I knew I should’ve gone with my original choice:
The PoorLand’s TailBreakers.

Ehh… that one’s not that good either. Sorry man, I know this must suck for you right now, but I wouldn’t worry about people making crappy puns about the Blazers right now. Idiots will be idiots.

On a more serious note, it’s got to be frustrating that Portland signed Miller instead of another big right now don’t you think? Millsap or Lee would’ve been good to have. But enough about the past, do you think you’ll trade Andre for a semi-decent big and sort of rescue the season? I’d say wait things out. Even if you get a big, chances look slim of winning a chip this season. Another lottery pick might be nice, but if the Rockets seem like they’ll make the post-season, I’m sure Portland could too. Any word on when the Vanilla Gorilla (I’m allowed to call him that without you getting mad right?) will be back?

TLO, Przybilla’s injury is actually going to have a longer recovery time than Oden’s. Word is he might even be out part of next season… yikes.

Wow. Has anyone put the entirety of Blazers Edge on suicide watch?

wow, didn’t know that. I thought he was just going to be out a month or two a la rouge. This is terrible, terrible news. Joel is one of my favorite Blazers too. This blows.

Im sure Millsap and Lee are grateful they did not sign with Portland now… they would probably be done for the season by now.

Unbeleivably, it gets worse for the Blazers. Linky

In the postgame locker room, Roy could not lift his left arm over his shoulder after dinging it in the fourth quarter. After missing a layup, he got tangled with a Dallas player while wrestling for the ball and “tweaked” it. Roy said he was told it was “loose,” and he was in noticeable pain down the stretch and after the game, but said he would try to play versus the Spurs.

He planned to take some anti-inflammatory medication to help his shoulder in the short-term and expects to undergo a magnetic resonance imagining when the team returns to Portland on Thursday.

“It hurts,” he said, “But we have to wait and see. I’ll know more in the morning.”

Let’s go bench vs bench?
