How Did DJ Get Hurt?

[Mamba Venom]

Heard that DJ had to get emergency retinal eye surgery...

Any news what happened?

He injured his eye at practice today, had emergency laser surgery. He's out for game 1 and 2 at least. Vision is no joke, i really pray he has a speedy recovery.

Deep said that Bynum was so active that he elbowed DJ in the head.

DJ brings the extra muscle we need against the Nuggets. He can get in there and be active for 5 to 10 mins and not let Mrtin/Nene/BirdM to get a second wind.

Hope he is back for the 2nd round. You need a deep bench of 7 footers in the play-offs.

We need his muscle in every game. Wish Phil would have played him more. He adds more to the team. J. Powell could be usefull also. It takes everyone to win 16 games.

They're really getting after it at practive Craig Hodges said it's really turned up. Playoff practices. The other day they had their hardest practice of the season.
