What about a crap load of Vicadin?

Vicodin only dulls the pain. With his strength and the severe forces involved in basketball he would almost assuredly snap that metatarsal if he continued to play on it. If he ever wants to walk normally again, let alone play basketball professionally, he needs to rest and let it heal properly.

I'm not even sure I want to hear about this, but can anyone who was watching on TV actually tell/show me what happened?

From the crowd, obviously we remained focused on the game, and all of a sudden it was like "Oh.. James has been out for too long."

Then, "Oh, James is coming back out on crutches."

Then word slowly spread through the crowd.

I have no recollection of the play (or non-play?) that caused the injury.

That is exactly what happened. It was definitely a "Where's James?" moment? I found this video on the ESPN website:

It still looks like almost nothing happened.

we would also like for him not to be addicted to narcotic pain medicines . . i think one major WI athlete is enough.
