    Boston commentators apparently stated he was having convulsions and coughing blood after the impact...

    Not good to see any player get hurt like that. Hope he okay.

    Yeah, all falls are exactly equal......... Seriously?

    Hope he's alright. That looked really scary. Even routine falls can be tragic

    You said, "Durant fell like that but was able to continue playing"

    implying that the falls were even remotely comparable.

    I'm touchy about falls since I completely ****ed up my arm (same injury as Bogut) on a routine fall.

    I actually said "in a similar way", but your sensitivity is understandable. Bogut's fall is one of the grossest things I've ever seen in an NBA game.
