"They're not good anymore -- either one."
Lorenzo Perez penned a great first paragraph for his latest article.N.C. State junior forward Ilian Evtimov chose a black knee brace as his accessory of choice for his basketball media day appearance Wednesday.
Reporters who had lost track of which injury the brace was serving -- the repaired anterior cruciate ligament that cost him the 2002-03 season or the cartilage damage he suffered last summer during a pickup game -- needed Evtimov's help clarifying which now qualifies as his "good" knee.
"They're not good anymore -- either one," Evtimov said and smiled.
For the record, Evtimov’s health could be the difference between a first and second weekend NCAA Tournament exit for the Wolfpack.
