I don't see a thread about Budinger's injury. I love this guy (no homo), but anyone have a diagnosis of his injury?
the only news they have released is that the x-rays were negative for a break... so it's an ankle sprain... but no details since then.
Things got real. People were throwing bows. He felt the heat coming around the corner and he peaced out. That's about it. He let the men handle bidness and went to the locker room to start washing Shane's game socks.
His shooting has gone from: "Hey Bud, let's party!" to "Hey Bud....he missed again!" Seriously, Bill Worrell was hoping to say Let's Party several times this past game, but he is really garbage from the 3 point line. What happend to him having such perfect form, such high percentage makes from 3, such cold blooded daggeristic shots from the 3 pt. land?
LOL! (I added this parenthetical portion because "LOL!" was too short, but I still felt it needed to be said.)
Brooks has a sprained ankle, Yao has a sprained ankle, Martin had a sprainked ankle, and not Budinger has a sprained ankle?!
He is still not clutch--he needs to hit them in key momentum-changing situations and all I see (when it counts) is miss after miss and no consistency.
So, first you argue that he sucks at threes. Then when it is pointed out to you he had a good game shooting last night, your response is he needs to shoot threes in the clutch (I'm not sure why we would have Budinger taking those shots, as opposed to Martin or Scola). Moving the goalposts, anyone?
