    McHale is doing his job. He's trying to cover up the locker room issue and wants it to not go public. Plain and simple.

    Wow, really. If there's a problem, it should be dealt with between the players. Why are they spouting off to the media? Stupid. Makes Lee look like a whiner.

    I'd put my money on Namby Camby he ain't no pansy. Trying to toughen up his team mates. Nothing wrong with that. (as long as they can still play in the games).

    This...i can't believe how so many rushed to other conclusions. Just reading it sounded like a joke.


    the title scared me though, i though it was going to be a case where Mchale accused Lee of faking an injury...

    completely over analyzing this....how about he was elbowed by accident and neither he or the other person noticed? Unless you're looking at your elbow, you can't really tell the difference between hitting an eye or a lot of other parts of the body. These guys get along too well to start b****ing to each other about an accident in practice.

    Things happen. Maybe Lee was half joking around. Basketball is a physical sport and people get knocked out sometimes, what can you say?

    Reminds me of when Big Baby got smacked in the face by Dwight Howard and could barely walk and you can see Doc Rivers in the background yelling at him to move it.

    Who cares???...

    Even if he did get in a squirmish, what does it really matter?

    Go to a playground where they have a Basketball court anywhere inside the 610 loop, and watch how long it takes for a fight to break out, break up, go back to hooping, and afterwards go to the mall together to pick up girls.

    More than likely it was just an elbow from someone, and McHale didnt want to stir anything up by saying it was so and so... so what? Obviously its not a big deal to them and they have moved on.

    That being said, if you watch the video, and follow him on Twitter its obviously they are just joking around about it. Especially on Twitter.

    This must be how Kevin Martin hurt his elbow. The plot thickens
