Well that is not very encouraging to watch

Maybe he is further behind than we thought.

Simple drill. I don't believe you can tell anything from that. If he was "further" behind, he wouldn't be out there on 5v5 or even drills like this. They would rest him. Relax people.

na he seems fine to me he seems like he was pretty tired. we should be worried if hes not even playing and if he himself says hes fine then we know we are fine kg don't lie. we got about 4 weeks and in that time im sure kg will be back and as good as or even better tahn 2008.

From watching the video the thing that gets me is that he is not wearing a brace on his knee. I figured he would be wearing one

As someone who currently has a knee injury, as well as a past with knee injuries, he's not 100%. He doesnt look 75%. You can see the pain in his face. The menisus is a hard injury to come back from and for a basketball player its worse due to the amount of presure on the joint

Well. Danny's comment from a few days ago that "Kevin needed his knee cleaned up" sounds more like a meniscus injury than a tendon injury or bone spur injury.

I'm kinda surprised they have KG going thru camp this early. Personally, I would have held him out of all drills until maybe the last week of pre-season. No reason to stress anything now, when it doesn't matter.

I understand that KG probably wants to participate, but that's not necessarily the right decision. Sort of like stalling to do an inevitable surgery in the hope that it will heal on its own (veiled reference to last year's angst).

I'm not worried.

Looks like he's in excruciating pain, not sure how you couldn't be worried

Honestly, I don't know what to think. We'll know for sure what's going on when they hear about this footage. Honestly, the coaches didn't seem too concerned, so I don't know why we should be... right?

not concerned--he's still regaining strength and dealing with soreness. give him 2 weeks.

Wow, someone coming off surgery has a limp, shocking news, thanks for sharing with us.

Doc said he kept KG in too long today, and now we see where he got that idea.

bc legends · Post #16 » by **bc legends** » Sat Oct 3, 2009 7:50 am

nothing to be too concerned about, the guy just had surgery

Tirion · Post #17 » by **Tirion** » Sat Oct 3, 2009 8:39 am

yeah, if by "just" you mean four months ago.

BillessuR6 · Post #18 » by **BillessuR6** » Sat Oct 3, 2009 8:56 am

This was at the end of the practice when he already cooled off and became stiff as Doc said it...

Just watch training camp broadcast today and you will see how KG really looks...

I'm with Canman on this.........if KG has a problem....a real problem.....the team will shut him down.....until then.....relax.
