Paul George Injury

Harden's reaction. He saw that up close.

 

Man, that is sad.

 

This is awful on so many levels.

My goodness.


How long until people start talking about pulling the pros out of Olympic/World Cup competition again?

 

I can promise you he heard it distinctly.

 

Seeing a pic rarely makes me audibly curse but damn that screencap did it. What a shame for PG...

 

Approximately 5 milliseconds after it happened.

 

I think Silver will place an ultimatum on FIBA to adapt NBA-style rules or suffer a "lockout." He already wanted out of the Olympics and leave it to the college kids.

 

Basketball players reactions to injuries seem especially emotional. I wonder if it's the proximity or what...

 

ffuuuuuuuuu!!!

I don't have the stomach to watch. Not looking good for the Pacers organization. I hope this won't happen to anyone else this season.

 

Holy ****..prayers to Paul George. No one deserves. Life can be cruel

 

This year has been rough for him.

Knocked up a stripper
Got catfished
Got robbed
Rumors of him with Hibbert's girl ruining Pacers lockerroom

Now this

Man, this is absolutely horrible. Pacers fans and NBA fans should be absolutely devastated, huge loss. I feel really bad for PG he was just on the cusp of breaking into superstardom now he's going to have to work just to get back to where he was. It really sucks.

 

I honestly don't know... but what are the differences from FIBA to NBA that could be more player friendly?

 

Wow Twitter. Posting Lance Stephenson blowing on Paul George's leg.

 

Like others have stated, as gruesome as the injury looks, if there was no ligament or nerve damage George could come back from this 100%. Of course that is a big if. Praying for good news from the doctors and praying for George to have a complete recovery.

 

This wasn't a FIBA problem. This was a UNLV problem for not having enough room on the baselines.

 

Man...just came home and saw this terrible news...for the Pacers, the NBA, and of course PG...Prayers and thoughts to PG and his folks.

 

i wish i could neg your psot right now
