Sħãlïq™ Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge is traveling to Colorado to have his sore right hip examined. The team says trainer Jay Jensen will accompany Aldridge to the examination Tuesday in Vail, Colo. Aldridge had an MRI on the hip late last month, but the results were negative. He has blamed the soreness on the grind of the lockout-shortened season and physical play. A first-time All-Star this season, Aldridge leads the Blazers with 21.7 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game. Aldridge is questionable for Portland's home game against Golden State on Wednesday night.http://sports.yahoo.com/news/blazers-aldridge-hip-examined-193835834--nba.html;_ylt=AuOo1cIJBJLqjC5TB78sJga8vLYF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazed49 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 With the history of injuries that we've had, I say we just shut him down for the year. We're not going to the playoffs so let him fully heal, get a better chance at a higher draft pick, and prepare for next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
