    I'm guessing he broke both bones.

    Was George going to make the team?

    The right call was to end this game.

    What does it matter, and yes, he was going to most likely be a starter.

    That break looked so severe I'm afraid more is going to be messed up than just the bone, that must have seriously strained the knee. Bone has to be broken off compleetely

    Thanks for the video sly. Damn!

    I'll be selfish and say this: I was on another channel when the injury occurred. I just missed it so the stretcher was still out and they were just talking about the serious nature of the injury. They didn't say who it was, so I was looking all over for #22 hoping it wasn't Dame that was on the ground.

    It's quite literally the most gruesome sports injury I remember, and that includes Kevin Ware in the 2013 NCAA tournament. I feel so bad for Paul George.

    How did Ware recover from something like that.


    I didn't see the Ware injury . . . it reminds me of the Joe Theisman injury

    Exactly right. The very best case is for a clean break of the tibia and fibula.

    Rose looked like it shook him up. LaMarcus is looking pretty smart right now for sitting this one out

    Parsons is more likely to make the team now.
