Orlando, no doubt.

They're about to give Tony Battie the green light to play less than six months after shoulder surgery too.

The Lakers? I don't know...I think Vitti is pretty good, but we just had loads of injury prone players like Lamar, Kwame, Luke, Vlad.
I think bad medical staff should be those that have the wrong diagnosis. It is not their fault that the players injure themselves, but to put wrong assumptions and diagnosis is. (ex: like clearing a player healthy to play when he is not fully recovered yet.)

uhh NONE of those injurys have anything to do with the medical staff.

Just because your team has injury's doesnt mean your med staff is bad, if fact usually means there pretty good...kuz they are treating players all the time.

The wiz simply just MISSED CB injury with a miss diagnosis and sent him out to play, resulting in a worse injury to the same area.

Id put orlando up there two with the grant hill crap.

The Wizards also misdiagnosed Jarvis Hayes kneed injury which ruined the number 10 over pick in 2003's career. He has misses almost 2 seasons with that injury.

IMO, you can also blame them for kwame. he said that he really messed up his ankle (knee maybe?) after he cmae back from an injury too soon. becasue of that during the off-season he dedicated himself to just pure weightlifting and bulking up.

I blame his bulk for killing his game. its like guys who get all roided up and can't move well. same type of thing. I feel that he could partially revive his carreer if he let a lot of his muscle atrophy over the summer and focus on his jump shot and finese game.

I have an inside source who says that the Wizards med staff accidentally shrunk Kwame's hands during a routine x-ray. He could have been a star.

It's Orlando and not even close. Our trainer doesn't know how to deal with cuts it's so pitiful.
God forbid one of our guys is in a life or death scenario. :(

Rashard McCants has had the flu on three nonconsecutive occasions this year. How does that happen?
