Re: Peter May: Ellison Unlikely To Play This Season

I know it's only Pervis, and he wasn't going to be a major factor for 
the Celtics anyway, but I think it's disgraceful that it took them 10 
months to figure out that he needed an operation on this ankle.  It 
makes it sound like they didn't even take him seriously because of his 
history of being injured.  Other reports I've read sounded like it was 
his own doctors who diagnosed him.  We haven't even heard what the 
surgery repaired.  Torn ligament?  What?  I always thought that every 
injury every player had was looked into in the greatest detail.  I just 
don't understand this.
