Big Baby Hurt

Gary Tanguay reports it to be a "strained left quad."  Hopefully it isn't too serious.

He’s probably not ready, but maybe this opens up an opportunity for Pruitt.

It’s time for the broken record:

We need a big Danny, We need depth Danny, Danny are you listening? 8)

It didn’t llok that serious. He didn’t twist it and it didn’t buckle.

Overweight guy playing all out. Same thing happened to me. Just rest it up

celtics post game reported that he was taken in the back on a wheelchair, sounds a little more serious than just a pulled quad.

I agree, Jake. I actually think it did look like it buckled. It didn’t twist or hyperextend, but maybe a torn patella or something. It almost looked like Bynum’s injury a little bit.

Don’t be surprised if he’s gone for a long time.
That’s how it looked to this Doc. Could be a significant loss for the C’s.

Real Large James – Man, that made me almost spit out my drink this morning! Funny. I unfortunately can relate…

Hopefully he is better quickly!

Definitely looked bad to me at first, but the explanation of quad injury and subsequent viewings, I thought it did look like he probably just put a lot of force on his quad and not necessarily his knee ligaments….I hope.

As someone who tore cartilege and ligament in knee playing back in my youth, Big Baby was expressing familiar pain (as in Holy MFing S**t every-word-you-can-think-of). I love the kid and I’m afraid he’s gone for the year. A strained quad doesn’t elicit that type of pain/fear. I couldn’t bring myself to look at Shaun Livingston’s or Willis McGahee’s injuries but I know Big Baby’s didn’t look anything like those but he was in such pain that I don’t believe just a quad. I really hope so though.

It happened in front of me. He went up with that spin move; his foot planted hard and fast on landing. It was if his shoe had suction on it. But his big body kept turning… It looked real bad at that point.
