Anyone watching the Cavs/Pistons game? Sounds like Rodney had a seizure during a timeout, and is having to be carried out on a stretcher. Hopefully he's ok, and it's a minor health scare.
I was woundering who it was. It was crasy scary. Per Fox Sports Detroit, his vitals are normal, and he is in stable condition.
A seizure? Where'd you hear that? This report says he just collapsed. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=ap-pistons-stuckey&prov=ap&type=lgns
I wasn't watching in the thrid but during the 2nd they had a stat that Stucky was the only Piston to play every game this year. Hope he is alright and that same prior health makes him a fast rebound.
My prayers are with him and his family. I have only missed 1 Blazer game in the past 8 seasons. 4 years ago I woke up in the emergency room at Emanual Hospital with doctors hovering over me. My wife called 911 after I had a seizure in the middle of the night. I had 2 more each time in the middle of the night in bed over the next year. They put me through EVERY test possible and they have never been able to tell me why they happened. We played the HEAT that night and actually watched the game from home. I hope Stuckey pulls through this. I have not had one in over 3 1/2 years and to see that happen really freaked me out.
I was trying to remember what his medical history was. I remember something happening while he was in college, but I thought it was related to his heart.
Lots of misinformation being spread on this thread. Stuckey did NOT have a seizure, he simply collapsed. Here's yet another story on what happened. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4971385
I wouldn't call it misinformation. It was being reported at the time this thread was created that he had a seizure.
Link? I went to ESPN as soon as this thread appeared, and the word "seizure" appeared nowhere in their article. As far as I can tell, the word was used only in this thread.
Heather Cox reported it 5 minutes after it happened next to the bench during the broadcast, and ESPN/ESPNEWS reported it non stop the rest of the night. http://www.hoopsworld.com/HeadlineStories.asp?hd=20100305&lc=NBA#STORY_24617
If you watched the game, the sideline reporter (Heather Cox) said it several times, and Jalen Rose and whoever is the co-host of the in-house show, mentioned it a couple times too. There's a reason why I wasn't the only one who thought it was a seizure, and reported it as such.
Thanks. It's odd that the ESPN story on their website didn't mention seizure, but the ESPN reporters kept using the term all evening.
