The Portland Trail Blazers have parted ways with longtime athletic trainer Jay Jensen.

Jensen served as the Blazers’ trainer for 19 years.

Jensen came under scrutiny in recent years after Greg Oden and Brandon Roy had their careers compromised because of knee injuries.

They've had the same trainer for 19 years?

With their history of injuries?


What a freaking joke.

It's taken them this long to realize: "Hey, maybe it's not a curse and might be, ya know, the guy dealing with the players' injuries."

They sure he wasn't been there since the Bill Walton days?
