Does every fart like that really need a thread? He strained his groin, big deal.

Why the attitude? Are you upset with Lebron leaving the Cavs too?

When is he going to get better? Does anyone know? It isn't a serious injury is it? I mean he'll still be able to play right?

The Washington Wizards rookie point guard was held out of practice Friday morning with a groin injury from Thursday night's session.

"He's got a little bit of tightness in his groin," coach Flip Saunders said. "He kind of slipped on the court and kind of starched out a little bit in the scrimmage last night so we didn't want to take any chances. We'll see if he loosens up."

Wall might work out with the Wizards on Friday night. They also practice Saturday morning before leaving for the Las Vegas Summer League.

Wall says there's a little stress and pain but he's not overly concerned.

"This is my first time sitting out like this," he said. "I'm type of person who doesn't want to sit out too long, but also in this type of situation, practice is important, Summer League is important. But it's an injury that can be hurting you throughout the whole season so my coaches and training staff are doing a great job."

I don't think we should wait for further information about this. Clearly, the sky has fallen. All Wizards fans report to the nearest suicide booth for the painless solution to this crisis.

That will be all.

I don't want to react to this.

Summer League for the Wizards starts Sunday. I do wonder if Wall will suit up. Might not want to risk playing now.

Trade him to Cleveland.

Does everyone remember he already tweaked the groin back during the combine in May and then he had his back tighten up on him when he worked out here before the draft?

Believe me I want to see him play as much as anyone in summer league (and for pretty much the first time ever I'm actually in the DC area where I can see the games on Comcast) but if he misses the entire week to get 100% healthy he loses nothing and the team loses nothing.

Where as if this thing carries over into the regular season... hopefully they're smart enough to let him heal if he needs to heal.

His career is over before it's started.

Come on, when was the last time a seemingly minor groin injury cost a player serious playing time? It's not like Etan Tho.... I'll shut up now.

According to CSN, Wall participated in tonight's practice. Looks like not a problem.
