Bad times for the Clippers. Brand hurt. Terrible season last year. And, to top it all, 60% ticket price increase at the worst possible time.
The days of sellouts at Staples are over.
Elton Brand has cast removed; to begin rehab program
September 18, 2007
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Clippers forward Elton Brand had the cast removed from his left leg and was fitted for a removable walking boot Tuesday, six weeks after he had surgery to repair a ruptured Achilles' tendon.
The Clippers said Brand will begin a rehabilitation program under the supervision of their training and medical staff. The program includes local therapy, cardiovascular work and a flexibility and strengthening program.

Brand is expected to wear the walking boot for six weeks before being reevaluated by Dr. Craig Morgan at Christiana Care's Wilmington Hospital in Wilmington, Del.
Brand was injured Aug. 3 during his daily workout in nearby El Segundo, and Morgan performed the surgery four days later. Brand was examined and had his cast removed at the hospital in Wilmington.
Brand averaged 20.5 points and 9.3 rebounds last season. While no timetable has been set for his return to the court, he is expected to miss at least the first several months of the season.

time for him to get well and spurs to sign him next year
I wonder if the Spurs would be interested.
Well, one guy came back from a ruptured achilles to lead the Spurs in scoring...
if he accepts MLE for a chance to get a ring... yes!
