Saw it Re-Tweeted, had to look. Wish I hadn't. That was horrible, truly sickening.

Damn. His leg snapped a few inches above his ankle. Maybe they need to get rid of that stantion or move it back further somehow. Nerlens Noel fucked up his knee running into that too.

It's times like these that the superstars are thankful that they sit this stuff out. Slightly shocked it was an injury to George and not Rose

My nightmare scenario when I play ball. I was pretty scared after Oden snapped his kneecap in 2009 too.

I like how for the past week people were throwing fits over Kevin Love not participating for this exact reason.

Rose is probably telling Coach K he can't get a passport.

Paul George will come back from this.

Then find his place as the team's franchise player is now gone.

Just like Danny Granger.

@WojYahooNBA
Owners and GMs united tonight: Paul George injury could be tipping point for use of stars in international play. "Game-changer," GM told me.

Never understand why they show replays of these type of incidents on TV. Who wants to see that? :shake:

Hope he can still be the same player after he recovers.

Hard to watch, obviously.
Look how further the basketball support is placed on an NBA court. That's like one additional step to slow down the acceleration & land safely.

People that wish to avoid similar incidents from happening again by knowing and seeing with their own eyes the circumstances that made it occur?

They said the stanchion was 1-2 feet above the prescribed distance. Guess that's a reason why.
