    Zero pain??? I don't know about you, but when my shoulder was injected with the dye they used for the image, it hurt like a mother*****er.

    My insurance company did pay for it after the orthopedic surgeon convinced them it was necessary. But it took him and not my primary care physician to finally get it done.

    An mri with contrast is usually not ordered except under specific circumstances, perhaps 20% of the time or less. A calf strain is not going to require an injection with dye.

    I don't think asik has to worry about paying for the mri, either.

    Hell, asik's probably running suicide sprints RIGHT FRIGGIN' NOW.

    I won't lie; at first, I thought you were just misreading his sarcasm since it is the interwebz, so I went back to read the exchange...and nope, you're right haha. I don't think he knows what the word 'sarcasm' actually means :p

    Have you had an MRI? Oh, and do you actually know crap about what's going on with Omer? Hey, I know the answer to that. The answer is yes... you know crap.

    As usual, the GARM loves to dramatize non-issues.

    Guess who was back at practice yesterday?

    McHale/players also discuss team chemistry and leadership.

    Good news. If Harden commits himself to defense, I believe he will be our main leader.

    you have no idea what you're talking about.
    asik's play will speak for him. not you.
    so stop your sewing circle speculations.

    Odd that his English sounds scripted in response to the questions about this... usually it's unprepared. Perhaps planned more than we think?
