I was watching this NBA player Injure his back and was appalled by the handling of it

[TidWell]

Wtf?




This dude slammed his back hard as fuck, its clear he is in pain and can barely walk, the medical staff of this professional NBA team doesn't even come out for a while, when the team doc or assistant coach comes out to check on him, they try to stand him up again, he keeps buckling, yet they have his teammates trying to assist him to walk it off, and you can see his leg giving out each time, one team mate tries to carry him and he tells him no no no stop in pain.

If his spine was injured just one move like that would paralyze him, they are supposed to put him on a gurney and roll him out of there, back injuries are very serious and you should never force a player to walk up like that especially at his weight.

That's the Canadian health care system for ya.

TSi7 makes sme good points sactually

You know how they love to have an injured player walk off under his own steam so the crowd get to feel good pop.

The pop is even bigger if he’s strapped to a gurney in a neck brace and gives a thumbs up as they drive him away

 

[Staph infection]

Yet LeBron gets carried off for leg cramps.

 

[Tankeray]

That’s complete fucking bullshit.

Dude can’t even get up on his own.....pretty obvious after the first time he got up something was very wrong

lol dam this made me laugh hard because its true when they put a player in a gurney with a neck brace and he turns the camera and gives the thumbs up the crowd goes crazy with cheers. Ive seen that several times

 

[ralphc1]

Was it his back or his hip? Looked like he landed on the left hip. Had to laugh at the tall guy and shorter guy trying carry him then they switched to a second tall guy.

In rugby they used to run out the magic water.

No matter what the injury or how bad they would have someone run out a water bottle, give you a couple sips and expect you to get up and keep playing.

And since it was rugby you usually did.

 

[Fedorisbest]

He looked legit scared

 

[MoparOrNoCar]

Should have done like Paul Pierce. Get carried off the court like your career is over and then a short time later, come running out of the locker room like a WWE entrance and go on and win the game for your team while showing no ill effects of what seemed like a devastating injury.

 

[ThulsaDooom]

Who cares, he's an NBA player.

 

[I Am Legion]

Wtf is wrong with the trainers?

Another A level athlete that doesn't even know how to take a bump.





JOBBERS EVERYWHERE .

That looked about as bad as it was. He shouldn't have been moved from the position he was in, and he definitely shouldn't have been allowed to get up and move around like that.

*cue slow claps from the crowd that ends in a crescending roar.

Yep. In America, we wait for insurance to clear before we even look in your directions.

haha...I actually got to do that that once. They strap your head down so tight on the backboard you forget where u actually got hurt. It looks like you might have died..so you want to let everyone know you're just a bit wounded.

But yeah, some of the attendants at sporting events are retarded, at best. There was a soccer goalkeeper that died recently IMO because of the way they handled him afterwards.
