What is it with Cleveland and bad medical procedures? Didn’t the Cleveland Browns have those issues with staph infections a few years back. Now dude has simple knee procedure and next thing you know he has blood clot on his lung??? Coincidence??

Danny might not be playing with a full deck. Dude, the trade request with the clips was pre injury.

That’s really cute…half a decent season in their entire existence and now Clip fans want to be cocky.

It’s pretty clear that the kid doesn’t know how trade negotiations work.

You begin the negotiation by asking for a high price, then you began working your way closer to the other teams’ demands.

And no front office in the NBA (not even the Clippers’) is stupid enough to take it personally and repeatedly prank call another front office just because trade negotiations never went anywhere.

That loud sound people in Cleveland just heard was Andy V’s stock crashing!

Naw, but in all seriousness this sucks on multiple levels. As a fan it sucks for us because he was really having a great season, and should have gotten his first All-Star nod with hustle and hard work that we can all appriciate.

As a person this sucks ’cause blood clots are freaking scary if you don’t catch them right away. My wife got one in her lung a week after we had our first child last year in July and on the same day we were finally able to bring our son home from the NICU (a whole ‘nother story!) and could have died. Heck, she’s STILL on those dang blood thinners (she’s on Coumadin -I think that’s how u spell it-), so for Anderson, 3 months should be a breeze!

Get well soon AV, for real man. Good luck.

I don’t get what you’re going after here? That the Cavs (before knowing of the potentially serious issue) wanted a good haul for one of their best players? Oh man, how dare they?

Dang, Varejao is one of my favorite non-Bucks players. Sucks to see this.

But i thought he was trade bait?

I thought they wanted Deandre Jordan and Eric Bledsoe for him?

The Clippers front office should call the Cavs and just laugh and if they hang up call back and do the same thing over and over.
