    Bull and Drexler said there was a bump on his knee, but it may be how his knees look normally. They suggested his quad may have pulled his knee cap from where it should be. I guess he needed more warm up time...

    It's depressing. If it's career-ending, this is not how he should go out. If he doesn't win a ring, it's one thing, but to go out on a stretcher is just not right. Of course we don't know how serious it is, but it didn't look good...

    Me too. I remember the feeling that we're seeing a legend on the court for the last time. :(

    That's the first thing I thought of when it happend. Except if I recall correctly, Charles basically looked at his detached quad rolled up in his thigh and just said "ah hell, this can't be good". lol.

    I think it was a torn ACL or PCL from the look of how his leg gave way and how much pain he was in.

    Doesn't look good. But I wonder if this would cause Dikembe to want to come back for another year to finish his career on his own terms.

    I would love to seem him for another season.

    As far as I'm concerned, we are ALL-IN this season. We need to win one for the Cookie Monster >if< this is his last playoffs.

    A doctor friend of mine said it looked like a dislocated kneecap. Hopefully we will know more at the half.
