EJ has sprained ankle... Will he be ready opening night?

Will anyone be injured on opening night?

From what I heard, he should be ready. Was supposed to participate in full practice today, team is just being extra cautious. It is more likely that Craig Smith will miss the game, he has a bad back and back injuries are very hard to treat. But it is hard to keep a rhino down so we will see what happens. Probably for the best that he isn't practicing, don't need him injuring BG again.

Yeah i think everyone but smith will play....i was surprised he said it was so bad he almost needed an epidural...that's CRAZY! I hope he starts feelin better and that the MRI comes back negative. But EJ only had a mild sprain, and he said the swelling was already going down and he was only limited because of slight swelling last friday. So I think he will be fine!

Please. No last minute injuries!!!

Ok, who is EJ? We have a DJ, and EG, and a EB, but I don't see a EJ on the roster. Who are you talking about?

Eric Gordon Jr

Gordon practiced and will play.

jamfam fail. on EJ. haha it threw me off in the beginning.

haha you must have been confused a lot by that over your years here!

This makes me sad

omg.. even me being new to this site knew who EJ was... sheesh...

C'mon guys cut him some slack. At one point or another, all of us didn't know what EJ meant.

I know what EJ means and it still doesn't work for me. I won't call him that.

Air Gordon or EG...

EJ just doesn't fit

from ralph's facebook:

"All good news from the Clipper practice today. All 14-players are healthy and ready for the opening of the season. Baron Davis is in the best shape he's been in for years and years. He, Blake Griffin, Chris Kaman and Eric Gordon all joined us for a Tip-off luncheon at the Training Center that included brief comments from NBA Commissioner David Stern."

since day 1 he's been EG. like many of you, i agree that EJ does not work.

Sounds GREAT! I guess Rhino's back healed up really quick.
