Re: NBA Off Topic

The stories keep coming lol

A former employee of the Warriors is suing both the franchise and Monta Ellis for sexual harassment.

According to an email from the Law Offices of Burton F. Boltuch, the plaintiff will file the suit Wednesday morning in Oakland at the Superior Court of Alameda County.

The plaintiff is accusing Ellis of sexually harassing her from November of 2010 until January of 2011.

Boltuch claims his client has photo evidence of the harassment.

The identify of the accuser and the photos will be identified on Wednesday.

“You will be shocked when you see it,” Boltuch said. “It’s pretty disgusting and graphic.”

The Warriors are being accused of covering for Ellis.

Estimated headband angle, relative to eyebrows: 34 degrees (in honor of Paul Pierce)

Hahaha!

I know his hairline is receding, but damn those last few picks his headband is way back there, looks ridiculous.

I honestly don't know how that thing stays on with the way he wears it now. Seems like it should pop off like a rubber band whenever he moves.

And just cause we're on the topic, time to bring back the classic one more time.

Everything You Wanted to Know About Chris Paul's Knee
by John Raffo on Dec 21, 2011 8:09 AM PST

I'm not an orthopedist. I'm not a doctor. I don't know much about the human knee at all. But, since the Clippers first showed interest in Chris Paul the question of his injury history, particularly the condition of his right knee keeps coming up. There's been a lot of rumor and innuendo that hinted that Paul's knees were progressively degrading, similar to what happened to Brandon Roy. Could this be true? Did the Clippers just trade the house for a player who might be forced into retirement in just a few short years?

Good read.

Sounds eerily familiar to what a certain somebody on here has been saying for the last year or so.

Hell of a good read, a lot of interesting information. Thanks for sharing the link, a lot of that stuff was explained in a way that is definitely more understandable.

This was interesting since I wondered why Kobe had gone to Germany for his procedure...

What about miracle German knee technology, the thing Kobe Bryant had done this summer? This is interesting stuff, but it's very new and there's varying opinions about its effectiveness. The idea is that you draw a bunch of blood from the body, centrifuge out the platelets and concoct an oxygen-rich concentrate and inject it back into the area you want to help, in this case the knee. The concentrate is supposed to reinvigorate and strengthen the joint. Does it work? People disagree as to its effectiveness... common sense would indicate that it wouldn't encourage a missing meniscus into healing. But parts of the knee are blood starved and it might encourage regrowth.

It seems like the common thought is that Paul is in the same situation as Roy, but that's not entirely true. There are two menisci in each knee. Roy have both removed from both knees, meaning there was complete bone-on-bone grinding in both knees. Paul only had one of them removed from one knee.

I'm guessing this means Paul still will be quick as of now (He looked fine, even quicker, against the Lakers), but it could still affect him down the line on a much lesser note than Roy's injury. I'd say by the time he hits 30, he'll start feeling the effect, but he'll still maintain quickness provided he doesn't have the other meniscus removed in his knee.
