According to the report here. Darko stated that he hit his knee a couple of games back. His knee would feel weak whenver he would have to bent his knee. Darko also mention something of a popping sound he would hear when he would try to stand back up right. I hope this injury isn't serious. I do have one question though that everyone needs to think about. With these injuries Darko has receive since he's been a Grizzlie. Do you think he's starting to become injury prone?

IMO the tag "injury prone" as opposed to "injured" needs a much longer time to develop than 1/2 a season.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. It's just a theory that came to my head. With these injuries that Darko keeps getting, one just have to wonder if he's becoming prone to injury.

I don't think Darko is injury prone, but I think he is unhappy playing alongside Pau "Statue Defense" Gasol.

Well, if this means Stromile gets to play again, I'll be a happy man :clap:

But getting rid of Pau and playing Darko and Stro together would be best for the team.

Yeah, I'd like that.

I'm getting sick of watching the Grizz losing close games with Stro in the doghouse.

One can hope! I wonder if Stromile is in the same situation Damon is in....?

...... How would stro being in the games late help? He has no offense, no post game, his jumpers are weak, he can't pass, he's lazy as a mo-fo, and he doesn't get the offense into a rhythm at all. There will never be a double team for him to pass out of so you can forget about people getting open looks. And like Charles Barkley said, sure Stro can run and jump, but hell a deer can run and jump, but you wouldn't put it on a basketball court.

I meant that I'd like him to play, not necessairly being in games late. Coach I rarely used him in the fourth quarter this year anyway.

The team is 0-4 averaging 116 points against since Stro is in the doghouse. I'm not saying that he would be a difference maker, but could it get any worse?

The season is still young. It has a chance of getting worse.

besides David Lee or the Knicks draft pick, is there any package of players or a trade you would want where oyu would trade Darko to the Knicks?

David Lee and the Knicks pick is all you have to offer.
