August 2, 201412 yr The basket supports are too close to the playing floor. Awful injury. I wish I could un-watch what I just saw. Sick to my stomach. Apparently the support was 2 feet 2 inches closer than the NBA standard. That's a lot of extra space...
August 2, 201412 yr The basket supports are too close to the playing floor. How can that be fixed? Is it possible to move the supports back and still maintain the integrity of the support they provide? Move it too far back and a thunderous dunk could topple the whole goal couldn't it?
August 2, 201412 yr Apparently the support was 2 feet 2 inches closer than the NBA standard. That's a lot of extra space... Is that the spacing used in international competition?
August 2, 201412 yr Is that the spacing used in international competition?I don't think so. The way they were talking, it's just a small footprint.
August 2, 201412 yr I don't think so. The way they were talking, it's just a small footprint. I saw someone bring up the Nerlens Noel injury on twitter. Makes me wonder how many major injuries have happened involving the goal support.
August 2, 201412 yr Terrible injury. Gruesome. But everyone keeps saying leg and I keep rewinding it and I thought it was the ankle that snapped. Worst ankle injury I've ever seen.
August 2, 201412 yr Terrible injury. Gruesome. But everyone keeps saying leg and I keep rewinding it and I thought it was the ankle that snapped. Worst ankle injury I've ever seen. Looked to me as if it was at the top of his sock...just below the middle of his shin.

August 2, 201412 yr Terrible injury. Gruesome. But everyone keeps saying leg and I keep rewinding it and I thought it was the ankle that snapped. Worst ankle injury I've ever seen. I'm looking at a still picture of it now. It's higher up the leg from the ankle. Looks like his shin.

August 2, 201412 yr Author Owners and GMs united tonight: Paul George injury could be tipping point for use of stars in international play. "Game-changer," GM told me. Wojo tweet...

It's shameful if they do that but that's the norm in America. We overreact better than anyone on the planet. One major injury in over 20 years of NBA players playing for Team USA and these crybaby owners want to shut it down. :no:
