Actually, just to prove I didn\'t make all that stuff up...

Read it and weep. Notice they said nothing about an injury history. Could there be something to this guy after all?

Wait, you weren\'t supposed to tell me chump. lol But look at my bio for James Allen in the DJ vs Fincher comparison thread. It says this almost exactly:

Has the bone structure to carry an additional twenty pounds with no loss of quickness ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã‚Â¦Uses his hands to sift through traffic,Quickly fills the inside rush lanes

As a matter of fact, I am sure that first line is the same, that\'s why I thought it was him. lol

Oops! Since nobody else guessed and I thought you were joking, I went ahead and posted that. Always hard to tell on here, and I didn\'t really get into the DJ / Fincher thread so I didn\'t know about that. Still, Levar Fisher\'s write up was pretty impressive ... what the heck happened to this guy?

... what the heck happened to this guy?

Knee injury in 2003, wasn\'t ready to play in 2004, Denny Green thought he should be playing already instead of continued rehabbing, got into Denny\'s doghouse and never got out. I hear if you get in Denny\'s doghouse, you rarely get out.
I\'m cautiously excited for three reasons.
1. He will be two years removed from the knee. Thats typically the time it takes to recover back to 100%.
2. He was an ascending player and a promising starter before the knee injury.
3. It appears Denny thought he was ready last year, so it may be that he\'s 100% by the start of 2005.

All of the above statements are simply my fading memory of the 3 or 4 articles I read about him so take it for what its worth.
