Walton Having Surgery

Feel better, Walton. I guess, maybe… I don’t even know anymore. Will this hinder any trades possibly involving Walton? Sound-off…

Press Enterprise: Luke Walton will have surgery Friday to remove bone spurs from his right ankle and expects to be out of action for four weeks.

Walton hopes the surgery will alleviate the pain he felt in the ankle all last season.

“It’s the kind of thing that you don’t know if the surgery will help. But I’m optimistic,” Walton said by phone.

    Hopefully the surgery well help him feel a lot better and his playing will improve exponentially, at least, better than it was last year when he struggled a lot due to injuries and limited playing time.

  8. 8 2inthepink1inthestink

    Wow I didn’t know you needed bone spurs removed when u sit on the bench. Hopefully the doctor can wind his ankle up real tight so he would actually be able to jump. Kind a like that movie little big league…

    how things have changed… just a summer ago (when it was still getgarnett.com), we considered Walton as one of the best free-agent pick-ups :P lol

    I don’t want him traded. I don’t mind him taking a chance in getting better. We all know he seemed a step slow last season because of injuries.

    wow you really must have a life for comin onto a laker website to hear whats goin on in lakerland. i guess even after the celtics were champions, people put the celtic championship news behind and deep into the closet after just a day or two!

    serious! why did he wait all the way until july to get surgery. i guess after startin to do somethin during the offseason, he realized he had an injury and just totally forgot about it when he was on the bench!

  21. 21 Whatsa

    His injuries was what was slowing him down and not being aggressive. 2 years he was playing exceptionally good in my opinion! But after his injury he became slow and he didn’t do very well…

    Maybe if he doesn’t get traded with Vlad for a good deal, Luke can possibly bounce back?

  22. 22 LD2k

    Right. It was a known fact Walton was pretty hurt and most ignored it.

    FROM NOW ON, ON THE LAKER NATION SITE, THE BOSTON CELTICS WILL BE REFERRED AS THE BOSTON SUCKDICS. IF YOU ARE A TRUE LAKER FAN, YOU SHOULD HAVE PURE HATRED FOR THE SUCKDICS.

    Just ignore the Suckdic fan (seriously what’s a worse nickname – the Fakers or the Suckdics – LOL – Joseph, we know which one you like).

    Also, when the Lakers do win their title, which will be soon, be prepared for all hell to break lose in the Boston Suckdic forums. I will be in those forums EVERY DAY. There will be no mercy from me.

  33. 33 BringDFishBack

    “Walton hopes the surgery will alleviate the pain he felt in the ankle all last season.”

    ALL LAST SEASON. I’ve said this all along, he was hurt all season and that is why he wasn’t playing as well as he did the year before. Every time they had a long break he played like he did in 06 07. That’s because he was able to rest it and get treatment. He will be back to his old self next season.

    Can we kick these phony wanna be Celtics fan off our Lakernation forum?
    Where have you been the last 20 yrs? HA{Profanity isn't allowed on theLakersNation.com -- Please go back and edit your comment. Thank you.}ES AND JOEBLOW !!! Chowder on this Wannabes!! Get it Clams!! By the way Antoine Walker is a free agent, cuz you need someone to replace Posey when he signs with NO. Go discuss it among yourself in a Celt’s forum, bye, bye. And dont forget E.T and old man Brown(cheater) need an extensions. hahaha. Again, discuss it among yourself. What about the Rats problem in your city, I heard it can grow as big as your head. These are just a few issue on top of my head right now. GO DO YOUR HOMEWORK @ HOME , NOT @ MY HOME OR YOUR FRIENDS BUT @ YOUR OUR HOUSE OK? BYE, BYE
