I think he's faking it.

My vote would've been somewhere in between B and C. He probably did aggravate it a bit. But I doubt he needed to wear a sling, and there's no way in hell he misses game 6.

I heard his arm might require amputation.

Just setting up the excuses. If the Pistons lose the series it will be because of Rip's elbow & Billup's hamstring. Absolutely nothing to do with Boston's play.

These guys are vets for a reason. Already preparing their excapes from the critics.

I hope he never plays another basketball game again, I cant stand that guy.

Okay a little too dramatic, I think he was hurt at the moment but nothing that should affect him too drastically heading into game 6

He should play for the LA FAKERS instead of the Pissed-Ons.

I hope he's playing and is totally off.

We've got to pull a Robert Horry on Hamilton if he plays tommorrow. Set some hard picks on him, or if you see and opportunitity with the basketball and that arm in the way, drive right into it and take the offensive charge. Nothing dirty, just an ordinary hard basketball foul. Even if it doesn't damage it further, it will atleast make him think twice and we can take advantage of his hesitation.

In a totally sports talking way I hope the C's Rip the bitch off and beat Billips sore hammy with it and close the series off in Detroit....that is all.....

Well I had to pick C because there was no option for what I think.

I think he sincerly pinched a nerve or something to that effect. But it will be meaningless by the time he plays and will be as healthy as anyone

[everyone plays through things like thigh bruises or sore hips and such]

I think he's done for the season. It definitely looked like he was in some significant pain last night. He sat out the last posession when they needed 3 point shooters/free throw shooters in the game. I don't like him but he is a game and he would have been on the court if he was able to go but he wasn't there. He might try to make a go of it but my guess is he gets out there, realize he can compete and sits the rest of the game/series.

Like WWE, a hurt wrestler would get up and win the match.
