    Didn't jamaal mashburn have this problem and retire shortly after developing it due to the pain?

    That's really a shame because Roy was a fun player to watch but I said this earlier - this is nothing Portland or the rest of the NBA should be surprised about. His medical history has been well documented and the reason he slipped in the draft was for this very reason. He just happened to be the best player on talent in an otherwise weak draft.

    Ah, so it was the Roy contract negotiations that really turned the guys at Vulcan against Pritchard.

    Still surprised that medical science and technology hasn't been able to replace cartilage yet.

    It can....you can grow it in a pitri dish and reinsert it into the knee, but I am not sure that the repair allows someone to play basketball.

    Give it 10-15 years. Just think how arthroscopic surgery would seem to people in the 70s.
