Bens Big Toe 

Post#1 » by InsideInfo » Fri Oct 24, 2008 1:12 am

I just want to clear this up for some people who may think that Gordon is faking his toe injury. It is his left foot, and it does look like its in pretty bad shape. I also know for a fact that Gordon has got treatment from the team for it and has also spent time on his own treating it using a machine that stimulates his toe.

Im not sure how bad it is hurting him, and im sure if he wanted to he could play thru whatever pain he is feeling, but the Injury is def real.

exactly what does a machine look like that exercises your big toe? I need pictures, not promises.

Thanks for the info-inside.
A plea for post scoring is a plausible Bulls plan, but plainly isn't a priority. In response to a post player's dismay about his lack of points in the paint, Paxson said.... "I'm not nearly as concerned about the offensive stuff as he is."

If you don't mind answering, what is management's view on our guard situation? If everyone was healthy, do they still have a preference for Hinrich over everyone else? How do they feel about everyone's preseason minus Gordon? Any remarks over Rose and Tyrus' play? Any input be appreciated. Thanks man for whatever you can share with us.

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

I am pretty sure that they like Hinrich over everyone else other then Rose. I really cant say how they feel about anyone else tho.

Well there you go.

I don't see how anyone in their right mind could believe Gordon was faking an injury. Why would he do that, when this is an extremely important season for him, going forward? It makes no sense, and the rumours are honestly quite stupid.

As for the Zach Randolph rumour being shut down: Surprise, surprise. We don't want a bum. Who knew? Well, a good 90% of us did, but clarification is always nice.

Thank you InsideInfo.

How is it? Will it prevent him from playing regular season games?

I don't even know how to respond to this, other than I'm disgusted by Pax/Reinsdorf.
