'I am going to operate, but would decide to go to Beijing"
San Antonio .- Here I am, back in San Antonio, happy with the bronze medal achieved in the Games and ready to tackle a new season of the NBA. Neither well I got made me a resonance in the left ankle, more than anything else to check the status of the ligament, if it had been enlarged or downsizing, or if it was damaged. Basically, the studies indicated that the ligament is like two months ago, when I made the first resonance. It is not worse, that's important.Now the issue is that neither is better, and it seems that the only way to full recovery is that I engaged in an arthroscopy.
Still no date set for intervention, nor know what doctor I operate, but the reality is that what I do yes or yes. I explained that we must clear the area of the scar in the affected area and the ligament back to its original size so that it does not bother me. Today, I am not hurt the ankle while walking, but when I try to run or jump. In these cases, the recovery period is six to eight weeks, although I do not know if in the eighth week will be ready to play or just to return to training. My impression is they reach the beginning of the season with the fair, or perhaps I miss the early matches.
Beyond this situation I am very calm, I knew what I followed: the plan was part of the Olympics and then, if suffered some kind of pain I was going to have to operate. I never expected a arthroscopy!
I know that was talked a lot about the subject, but I am sure what I did because it was not a unilateral decision, but the coaching staff talks with the San Antonio Spurs. Again take the same decision to stay in Beijing. I understand the frustration, I understand that I may lose some games. But participate in the Olympic Games is very important for any athlete. I became more mature yet, gave me more experience of life and always felt that it should do so. Any athlete who has the possibility to live a Olympic Games should not reject it. There will be people who understands you and other people who do not.
