Around SBN: The Record of Wrongs: Vanderbilt Commodores

He is aiming for December but team president Ernie Grunfeld repeatedly stated today that the team has no timetable in mind and he made it clear that Arenas will not take the court again until the knee is "healthy."

That was telling. I've going on my fourth season covering this team and I've learned that while Grunfeld is often guarded in his answers about his team, it is possible to read between the lines of what he does and does not say. I took Wednesday's responses to mean that the team is prepared for Arenas to be out for a good while. Whether Grunfeld has December or January or February or any month in mind is a mystery, but on ESPN, former Bullet beat man Ric Bucher cited a team source saying that Arenas' December target date is optimistic. That makes sense.

Wizards Insider. Explain to me how arthroscopic knee surgery keeps someone out for more than three months.

The news just keeps getting better and better. January, February? Why not make it April? This all started 18 months ago! Two surgeries and two comebacks later, and he’s still hurt? When is the madness going to end? How many more regular season games is he going to have to miss until he’s completely healthy? Will he ever be completely healthy? Will he ever be the same player even if he is? This is absolutely maddening!
