You know that sinking feeling, when everything seems to spin just a little bit and all externalities are totally pushed out of your consciousness?

      Spot on... not good at all. However, hoepfully he'll be back by the first few weeks of the season.

      Still, a massive interuption to preparations.

      Meanwhile, your Cavs are looking good!

    mookie, can't say I'm too happy about this either. I just hope he comes back better than before.  I can't wait to see him and Oden on the floor at the same time.
