The NBA suffered a major blow when top overall selection Greg Oden went down for the year. Well, the injury bug struck again, but this time it went straight for one of the most pedestrian No. 3 picks in history. Yup, if you're a fan goofy hair, bad moustaches and ridiculous Larry Bird comparisons then you might want to sit down for this.

Adam Morrison is probably going to be out for the year after an MRI showed that he has a torn ligament in his left knee suffered during a preseason game against the Lakers on Saturday.

Our medical staff has had a chance to review the MRI, and they're saying right now they believe there is some sort of tear," coach Sam Vincent said Sunday, about an hour before the Bobcats took on Phoenix in the second day of the annual Staples Center shootout.

"Until they get in there and do whatever they do, who knows? But they are saying there's a good chance he will be out for the year. So I'm not counting on him playing," Vincent added.

"I talked to him before the coaches and players meeting this morning when he had just gotten back from taking the MRI, and he pretty much knew the results," Vincent said. "He's obviously down.

And we all know about how emotional Adam gets about things. Don't you remember his self-deprecating ad that ended with "More people should cry. And when I get to the NBA, more people will cry"?

Sorry to disappoint you big guy, but the only person crying after you hit the pros is Michael Jordan.
