NBA '17

[hdog1017]

I have a hard believing the Bulls will win more than 14.5 games this season.

Did ya forget to type “on,” hey?

Holy effffff. Do NOT watch a replay of Gordon Hayward’s broken leg if you weren’t watching live. Absolutely awful.

Yeah. That's one of the worst basketball injuries I've ever seen. I feel terrible for him.

I flipped to the game just as he was laying there and everybody was walking around looking stunned.

What happened?  Was it non-contact like the Louisville kid or did somebody roll up on it?  I do NOT want to watch it.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Damn that was rough to watch. Not as grotesque as the Louisville kid but still one of the worst I have seen. Even the announcers knew it right away.

Hayward went up for an alley oop and got bodied mid-air by James. He landed funny. Hard foul by James but it wasn't a dirty hit at all.

Just look at the reaction from the players and crowd

Not to nitpick but it actually wasn't a foul.

Coincidentally, there's another thread on Scoop about football being dangerous and having ugly injuries that are scaring off kids and parents.

I was only half paying attention to the game when I heard Marv say, "Hayward just broke his leg!  Hayward just broke his leg!"  Instead of changing the channel I looked at the TV to see what happened.  It was still zoomed out and he didn't look to be screaming or anything, so I was like, "How can he tell that?"  Then they zoomed in and, yup...pretty obvious.  BRUTAL!  Changed the channel immediately and literally will not be turning on TNT even for the second game tonight or ESPN today or tomorrow.  Also won't be watching the Bucks game tomorrow (at Boston...helps that I'm playing basketball tomorrow night anyways).

I assume/hope they will not be showing the replay on TV, but I don't want to take any chances.  It was that bad.

[MU82]

Two big blocks by Wade and a man's rebound by Crowder. The Cavs look like they'll be OK.

But yes, all overshadowed by that injury. I didn't see it, and I'm not going to try to see it.

Worse than that kid from Louisville, Jason Kendall hitting the bag at first, Mike Utley.. probably the worst for me was watching them intubate Reggie Brown in the middle of the football field.

I saw a somewhat similar injury in a high school volleyball match a couple years ago.  The foot was at nearly a 90 degree angle from the leg.  They covered it with a towel so people didn't have to see it while waiting for the squad to arrive, but the worst part was even though it was covered, where I was sitting I could see the sole of her shoe even though the sole of the shoe shouldn't have been pointing that direction.  It was pretty awful.  Amazingly, we heard a couple days later that there actually wasn't a break -- just a dislocation.  I never did hear how her recovery went.

[GooooMarquette]

I only saw the long-range video of Hayward's injury.  The reaction of the players on the Cavaliers' bench is enough to tell me I don't want to see the closeup.

Hope the kid can recover.

Robin Ventura and Moises Alou had some pretty ugly ankle injuries as well. At the top of the list with Kevin Ware for the worst all-time injury is Napoleon McCallum from the Raiders. His knee nearly bent entirely in the opposite direction. IIRC, there was an actual chance that it would have to be amputated.

Y’all need ta grow a pair and watch da replay. Its life, man. Nothin’ to fear. Reality’s a bitch, ai na?

[Silkk the Shaka]

Haven't seen it really brought up anywhere but the Allen Ray eye pop out was really tough to watch, and it seemed like they showed on super slowmo a million times

Did you know that Otule only had one eye?

[Pakuni]

Did you know that Otule only had one eye?

Does anyone know if OJ Mayo and Todd Mayo are related?

Interesting. I've also heard that Markus Howard Is Only Seventeen Years Old.

Honestly, the worst part was the sound.  The sound of his leg snapping is something I will never forget.

Yuck

Henry getting minutes early.  At one point, it was Ellenson and Leuer vs Kaminsky and Zeller

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Congrats to Abdel Nader on his first NBA minutes and points tonight. Pretty cool to see.

[4everwarriors]

Who, hey?

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

This Giannas kid is okay, huh?
