He has a partially torn meniscus, I have inside scoop..I'm an old member who loves and appreciates this site who (luckily) now has access to some inside scoop..Look forward to participating more and passing along inside scoop to my fellow clutchfans members!!
It kind of feels like the Rockets were worried about his health for a while. Making Harden the PG, adding Pablo, adding Ennis, contract for GP2, Taylor.
Ah man that sucks. I guess that means Harden plays a ton of minutes again this year. Could have really used Sergio Llul .
We can't count on this guy, time for Morey to do some PG shopping and keep GPll around for defense and potential.
It's just for precautionary measures. He'll be fine. Same ppl writing Bev off are the same ones who want to sign DMo with all his back problems. Should we write off DMo?
Looks like it depends on if they repair it or cut off the damaged portion. Ron Artest was back in 12 days after they cut off the torn portion. If they repair, could be months. This is a decent explanation.
I don't know if it has been said here already, but this is soreness in his LEFT knee. March of 2014 Beverley tore the meniscus in his RIGHT knee. So whatever it is, it's not an occurrence on the right knee that gave him trouble 2 years ago. Take that as good news or as bad news. Because if these 'insider scoop' rumors are true, then he will have had torn meniscuses (menisci) in both knees in the last 2 1/2 years....
Sometimes when you have problem with one knee you overcompensate and create problem in the other leg. From what I have observed as a fan it's better for a player to just cut it off instead of repair it. I think it was two seasons ago that both McRoberts and Rose tore their meniscus. McRoberts' was repaired and he missed the full season and wasn't that impressive when he came back while with Rose they decided to cut it and he came back fairly soon and in good condition.
