    His playing weight is way too high for the way he moves. He looks like he's about 270-280 and that's not lean muscle.

    That's the first thing that came to my mind when I saw him go down last night.

    The guy is not over weight but he is carrying around more than he needs, especially with the way he plays.

    Hopefully this injury will not break his confidence, he is a bright young player, but rather make him change his body and become much leaner and in better shape. Which should be about 20-30lbs lighter than what he is currently at.

    Feel bad for the kid. I thought he had allstar potential but now I mm not sure he'll be anything more than a high level role player. Nothing wrong with that but it seems he's going to be the latest example of a career detoured from injuries.

    Bad news for him and bad news for the Bucks fans. Hope he gets better and can put these injuries behind him for good.

    I honestly have no idea which one you're talking about. Is it the football the rest of the world likes or the better one?

    He was playing at a level where he might have pushed for all-star honours in a year or two, especially if Milwaukee makes a push for the playoffs next year with Middleton back.

    That is a tough break.

    Wow, I actually feel for Jabari and the Bucks. Talented young team on the rise, but continually taking a step back in part due to injuries.

    Seems to happen to good dudes too often.

    Didn't Derrick Rose tore his ACL twice?

    Right, but w/ Rose's injury history it definitely seems like 2-3x or so...

    Pretty sure Jabari tore his ACL in Middleton's first game back. Absolutely nuts. Was really amped to see this trio grow + Brogdon and Maker. Not sure what Parker's game would look like if he doesn't have the athleticism to get around PF's. Absolutely brutal.

    He is one of the worse coach in the league, the Bucks should fire him at least 2 years ago - meaning should never offer him the job.

    Yeah i agree with those saying this, he's seems way too big for the way he moves/plays...when we played them recently he looked bigger than Lebron, and not by a bit from what i remember.
