Baron Davis BAD Knee injury

[bagelred]

He's done...I think.

Stretcher.

[(e)]

Yeah, I heard him say, "ahhh shit"

[Wally450]

LeBron :bowdown: .....:facepalm

[Upgrayedd]

I feel terrible for him but I just can't help but :roll: at how pathetic this is getting with all these injuries.

[SpecialQue]

:(

[Human Error]

Let's see what it is... Given his track record, this may be a serious one. Hope he's okay.

[Foster5k]

I think Baron Davis career is done. I hate to say that, because I like Baron Davis. He already has a bad back, etc. This may be the nail the coffin.

[Teanett]

that was it for boom dizzle. :(

[bigkingsfan]

Only a stretcher, they almost had to get the bodybag.

[b0bab0i]

FVCK, that was nasty.

[DTreats]

Damn can't believe LeBron was smiling/laughing at the injury

Classless

[Ancient Legend]

No more shorts & rollerskates for Davis.

[DStebb716]

We just witnessed the end of Baron Davis' career. Wow.

[Jotaro Durant]

lbj was smiling what a fhaggot i hope he has career end injury:facepalm

[bagelred]

Holy shit, did everyone see that? :eek:

[ProfessorMurder]

Damn that looked bad. Someone needs to gif that disgusted Heat bench player's reaction though :oldlol:

[PTstyle272]

So f*cking disgusting, even a prick like davis doesnt deserve anything like that

[mans1ay3r]

:eek: Holy crap, couldnt tell what was wrong until I saw the replay.

[PTstyle272]

Lebron was nowhere near smiling

[Shepseskaf]

Knee just buckled. Didn't look good at all.

[Foster5k]

Lebron wasn't laughing. He had a look of, "Oh Shit. That's f'ed up." Lebron isn't as bad of a guy as many of you guys try to make him out to be.

[PTstyle272]

We just witnessed the end of Baron Davis' career. Wow.

Truth, no way he's coming back

[b0bab0i]

The indent on his knee was bad

[DMV2]

There was a baseball-size lump on his kneecap. :( He's done.

[BGriffin's Dad]

i think his knee cap was pushed out to the side of his leg :(

[b0bab0i]

Truth, no way he's coming back
He still gets paid that $30 million from the amnesty right?

[Upgrayedd]

Maybe if he actually got into good shape he wouldn't have injured himself running down the basketball court. He's been out of shape the past few seasons now. This is pathetic. I feel bad for him but how the hell do you do that just running down the court?

[bleedinpurpleTwo]

I missed it. At what point of the game, exactly, did that occur?

[Carmeloo15]

end of career ?:facepalm

[b0bab0i]

I missed it. At what point of the game, exactly, did that occur?
Just happened like 5 minutes ago, right when Knicks tied the game and were about to take the lead.

[d.bball.guy]

Damn can't believe LeBron was smiling/laughing at the injury

Classless
This. :facepalm

I agree that he is likely done. :( **** Lockout

[Clippersfan86]

That's only one tier below the Livingston knee blowout. He probably has torn MCL, ACL, PCL.. the whole deal. Definitely a career ender at his conditioning level+age.

[Carmeloo15]

I'm afraid his nba career will end :facepalm

[DMV2]

Just happened like 5 minutes ago, right when Knicks tied the game and were about to take the lead.
It happened when the scoreboard was 52-52 or somewhere around there.

[protox]

Damn can't believe LeBron was smiling/laughing at the injury

Classless

Go look at it again. He was no where near laughing.

[LBJMVP]

lbj was smiling what a fhaggot i hope he has career end injury:facepalm

lebron wasn't smiling...

i saw him grimacing... someone is reaching.

[The Macho Man]

I only the end of one replay, did he dislocate his knee?

[Mr Clutch Melo]

Lebron was not laughing.

Get well Baron:rockon:

[LBJMVP]

I only the end of one replay, did he dislocate his knee?

he probly ruptured everything that can be hurt in his knee.

[franchise#3]

Lebrick was clearly laughing. His lovers need to get a grip with reality.

[d.bball.guy]

Just saw it again..nasty! :(

[Carmeloo15]

Lebrick was clearly laughing. His lovers need to get a grip with reality.
:roll:

[Tenchi Ryu]

Lebron was not laughing.

:
Yea, he wasn't at all. It was that thing you do where you cheese and like suck at the same time. Like OOOOOOO, GOD DAYUM kinda reaction.

[inclinerator]

Only worse NBA knee injury I've seen live is Shawn Livingston one.

Clearly he's not laughing but shocked. More a disgusted look.

[Salazaar]

For god's sake you people are pathetic :facepalm: he obviously was not laughing, but grimacing, and he has a weird mouthpiece that may make it seem like he's smiling...

[DStebb716]

Maybe if he actually got into good shape he wouldn't have injured himself running down the basketball court. He's been out of shape the past few seasons now. This is pathetic. I feel bad for him but how the hell do you do that just running down the court?

that is clearly a grimace... he isn't laughing.

[Punpun]

Never said he did. It's just strange. It's like he has some strange tooth. Joel ANthony look oof pure disgust is awesome.

[SpecialQue]

The Lebron hate is getting downright pathetic at this point.

[ihatetimthomas]

:facepalm What an uneducated idiotic statement. These things just happen. You can break your neck just turning your head.

His statement is not entirely false. When you are out of shape, you put a lot of stress on your body, and are more prone to injury. These things happen, but being out of shape certainly doesnt help. Look at guys like eddy Curry. Injuries are more likely when you are not in top physical shape.

His mouth guard made look like he was smiling. That shit was painful.

Dude, poor quality + Strange grimace = Is he laughing ? That's weird.

[krazymofo]

Is it me or does he look like a toothless black hillbilly in that gif?

[Clippersfan86]

:facepalm What an uneducated idiotic statement. These things just happen. You can break your neck just turning your head.

It's very valid. Baron has spent most of his career very out of shape and doesn't work out enough to stay physically peaked. This ABSOLUTELY affects injury frequency and recovery times.

[Punpun]

He does. It's pretty odd.

[LBJMVP]

Never said he did. It's just strange. It's like he has some strange tooth. Joel ANthony look oof pure disgust is awesome.


that isnt joel covering his mouth

its either norris cole or james jones.

[inclinerator]

norris cole

[Apogee]

Its a dislocated patella. LBJs mouthpiece is just weird. yall need to stop trying to reach for something.. haters all over the place

Juwan Howard is thinking maybe he should get out sooner rather than later.

No, look at Joel's head. Shaking it and all.

Oh I see. Talking about Juwan.

Being slightly out of shape doesn't make your knee explode. Shit just happens.

You don't think constantly carrying 40 extra pounds, never working out hard enough during summer and not carrying about your health can contribute to this?

lol

[ihatetimthomas]

Being out of shape doesnt help, but his injuries this season are likely the biggest contributor. He had a herniated disk and that just puts so much stress on other areas of the body to compensate. His core was not 100%

[Locked_Up_Tonight]

Someone with photoshop skills morph LeBron's face onto the Cobra Kai:

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6RUB9xHNSnc/SQeIP98vAeI/AAAAAAAACdg/tdvBiSFWJ2k/s400/COBRA+KAI.jpg

Didn't you just tear your ACL last week?

[Clippersfan86]

Didn't you just tear your ACL last week?

Yes and I'm in bad shape, don't work out enough and I'm carrying excess weight :confusedshrug: . BTW It's my MCL I'm almost positive of. Not ACL.

[The Macho Man]

You don't think constantly carrying 40 extra pounds, never working out hard enough during summer and not carrying about your health can contribute to this?

He doesn't seem that big. He's what maybe 6-3 220 225? He'd be skinny as shit at 180ish

[DMV2]

Never said he did. It's just strange. It's like he has some strange tooth. Joel ANthony look oof pure disgust is awesome.
The guy covering his mouth? I think that's Norris Cole.

EDIT: NVM. Somebody also mentioned it.

[Clippersfan86]

He doesn't seem that big. He's what maybe 6-3 220 225? He'd be skinny as shit at 180ish

He's 230+ man. He should be 200. So I guess 30 pounds overweight. Gary Payton was 6'4" 200 pounds and was strong as a bull. Since he was at UCLA he was criticized for carrying way too much on his frame. When he was with the Clippers our trainers leaked that the guy was closer to 250 at one point.

[longtime lurker]

You guys saying Lebron was smiling are fvcking idiots. Wow. Sadly this is probably the end of Baron Davis career. these injuries are getting ridiculous.

Don't like either LBJ or Baron Davis Barons injury looks gruesome but I'll venture to say he'll make a complete recovery. Can't believe I can't get abc on dish network in the Midwest that is completely messed up. LBJ not laughing. Looks like a dislocated knee considering mech of injury I'll bet it just needs to be popped back into place hope no major knee damage. He's obviously out for several months. Hope he's ok thanks for the YouTube clip. Major damage typically occurs from jump and awkward land, not while running, hope I'm right.

[ClutchOver9000]

poor guy, the dude's knee exploded...smh...shit was disgusting...hate to see anyone go out like that.

as for the LBJ issue, dude was clearly grimacing.

[Fiasco]

oh boo hoo

[Shepseskaf]

This is it for Baron. No way he's going to go through all the rehab it will take to come back.

And LBJ was not smiling.

[bagelred]

poor guy, the dude's knee exploded...smh...shit was disgusting...hate to see anyone go out like that.

Yeah, that injury was Greg Oden like. And that's the worst thing you can say.

[rknine15]

cmon ppl lebron wasn't laughing.... stop being ridiculous


baron might be done he torn everything in his knee... wish the best for him

[garytalarino]

At Baron's age, that injury will take 1.5 years to come back from, and given Baron's commitment to keeping in shape in the past, tack on at least another 6 months on top of that. He's done. He's made himself a boatload of money, his recent injury history is rough, and he wasn't happy when he was behind Lin on the depth chart. He's not going to do all that work to come back when the only team he could start for will be the Bobcats.

Some are saying because he was out of shape his knee exploded? Doubtful. Mike Sweetney, Oliver Miller, Eddy Curry to name a few - none of these guys' knees exploded like Baron's, and, as Chuck would say, the only reason any of them would touch the rim would be if there was a cheeseburger resting on it. Sh1t happens. Shaun Livingston was in peak shape, and his knee just blew out. If he didn't make the league, it would've gone out in some pick-up game back home in Illinois. If Derrick Rose was taken out of game 1 with 2 minutes left, he would've blow out his ACL in game 2. Some parts of certain people's bodies are ticking time bombs.

All the same, I hope Baron makes a full recovery and plays in the league again. A frustrating player with a disappointing career overall considering his god-given talent, but seems to be a good dude overall - nobody deserves what happened today.

No matter what happens, I'll never forget the round 1 series victory over Dallas and the dunk of AK47 as long as I live.

[iDunk]

Norris Cole looked like he found out his balls dropped. I swear that kid goes both ways ..

[keepinitreal]

The only guy laughing/smiling at it all is Baron himself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQOAnq070f4&feature=related

I thought it was pretty cool of Baron to just smile about the situation knowing there isn't much he can do about it now.

[iDunk]

http://i48.tinypic.com/oaw080.png

This is the part where it looks the worst IMO.

[ihoopallday]

How the **** can Baron smile in this situation? Lol, I'd probably be in shock. Damn, he has a high pain tolerance. Btw LeBron wasn't laughing. Guy even goes to check on Baron when he's on the stretcher video. Just watch the video. Anyways good luck to Davis.

Lol damn just made a post saying the same thing. Didn't see yours till now. But yeah, Baron is one tough dude. I don't think I'd be able to handle that type of pain.

[iDunk]

I'm glad that he went out like a G, just like he is. Not even a devastating knee injury could keep a smile off that guy.

Goddamn it, I still can't believe one of my all time favorite players went down like that. I'm glad he went out as a Knick though.

[Upgrayedd]

He doesn't seem that big. He's what maybe 6-3 220 225? He'd be skinny as shit at 180ish

Yeah he does. He should be at around 180-190.

Damn. That injury looks brutal. It's almost as bad as the wrestler Sid when he broke his leg/ankle whatever.

[Whoah10115]

Is this the same as just dislocating your knee? I think the question might sound stupid, but I imagine it can't. Girlie did has had it happen like 3 times to one knee and like 5 to the other.

[The Macho Man]

Yeah he does. He should be at around 180-190.

Rose is like 190 and seems like he has a much thinner frame.

http://www.atlnightspots.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/derrick-rose-04_medium.jpg

210 would probably be good for Davis. He would be emaciated at 180.

[d.bball.guy]

Maybe? His knee was basically in his shin.

[Whoah10115]

It happened in a soccer game and has since happened with her Dad bumping into her when she was sitting, and her Mom sitting on her in bed. I know she didn't play senior year, but I think she still ran track. It can't be the same thing.

[d21221hk]

SMH at the idiots who are using this as some smear campaign against Lebron when he was clearly grimacing. Have some class you morons.

Get better soon Baron!

[Clippersfan86]

210 would probably be good for Davis. He would be emaciated at 180.

Naw... I think 200 would be ideal for Davis. He's 6'3 more realistically. I say he can be 200 ish because he is a post up guard more so than Rose etc. Andre Miller is a good sized PG for example with a thick frame and superb post up/power game and he's 6'2 200.

[vinsane01]

Gruesome indeed. I dont think davis' extra fat and insufficient conditioning is to blame. It just gave. Rose looks to be in tip top shape and his prior injuries doesnt seem to include knee injuries but his acl tore after a simple landing. It's the accumulation of knee stress resulting to some underlying and unforeseen irregularities to some parts of the knee.... Now maybe davis' extra fat and improper conditioning puts extra stress on his knee but if this compressed season proves anything about non-player contact injuries, it proves that it can happen to anybody.

I was speaking in general. Agree this year it's purely the compressed season. It's no coincidence that 4 players have blown their knees in the first round. David Stern is full of shit.

[Upgrayedd]

I can't stand LeBron but he was not laughing/smiling. He looked disgusted/in disbelief.

[FindingTim]

I suffered the exact same injury in high school.
It hurts like a mother****** and recovery is a bitch, but my athleticism didn't decrease that much as far as I can tell (after surgery)

Still, with Baron already a shell of what he once was, this might be the finisher.

So what's the difference, exactly (if you know), between that and just dislocating your knee? Because there has to be. She never had surgery.

[AngelEyes]

Are people really this ****ing stupid? You people really can't tell the difference between a grimace and a smile? I'm not even a Lebron James fan and I'm sick of all the shit this guy gets, it's absurd.

Damn, just noticed how ridiculous his shoes were. :wtf:

I suppose it'll depend upon structural damage. I actually had a student dislocate her knee playing softball, but structural damage was limited. So for as gross as it looked, her recovery time was actually startlingly quick.

[Alamo]

Time for the Jeremy Lin show

[krazymofo]

Poor Baron Davis! I hope he has a speedy recovery. That just sux yo.

I figure it must be something like that. It's happened to her a bunch of times since.

[The_Yearning]

First Lin, then Rose, Iman, and Baron.

This shit cray!

[RazorBaLade]

Enough cant be said about how cool it was to see him smiling etc. Just obviously happy that he was even in the NBA in the first place. To play in MSG. Just went out like a total G.

[LBJMVP]

i looked up the injury and it said 6-16 weeks.

assuming baron gets the best doctors and best rehab specialist he should be fine.

but i think they still have to do some kind of MRI tomorrow to see the full extent of that injury.

that picture some posted a page back or so is so strange to look at. just seeing the indentation of where his knee cap is suppose to be is just crazy.

[NumberSix]

We're accusing LBJ of laughing at a seriously injured player who's lying on the ground 15 feet away. That's where we are now? This is what it has come to? :facepalm

How the hell was he smiling after that? it looked like hes knee got smashed in by a hammer, he must have been numb from the adrenaline when it happened but I bet he was hurting like hell once they took him in the lockeroom.

it kinda looked like he was at peace. honestly, i wouldn't be surprised if he retired. that is a bad injury for a player of his age and injury history. maybe he was smiling because he was reflecting back on his career?

[ihatetimthomas]

He has always seemed like a positive and care free guy. While I wasnt a big fan of his work ethic, he always had a great attitude and nothing ever got him down. I agree with you, I think he was smiling because he kind of knew it was the end and honestly happy go lucky is his personality.

Y are some of yall acting like he died?lol he just dislocated his knee.yes i know it looked bad but its really not as far as career ending?hell no.rondo dislocated his elbow last year and he is fine.all baron need is rest,heal,train hard this summer.real hard get down to his playing weight.i think he got a lot left in the tank.the man was a beast just three seasons ago.

Agreed. Classy from D-Wade and LeBron to go over and check how he was just before he left too. As much as it sucks him getting the injury, it was still pretty cool to see him smiling and getting dap from other players as he went off.

Have to agree also that this is probably the end of Baron's career, a real shame.

[ihatetimthomas]

A guy his age and with his knee problem history is def. going to have problems with a injury like this. And how do we know the extent of the injury? He hasnt gotten a MRI so it can be a lot more serious. I dont know why you are even trying to compare this situation to Rondo.

I just hate it when people say things like "well 3 years ago he was a beast" lol. And he has been pretty horrible the past 3 years. He has been injured every single one of those years. He is not going to somehow miraculously not be injury prone. Father time always wins.

[ukballer]

Baron has had to come back from so many various injuries these last few years, often playing WITH injuries just to see some court time. Rondo is a bad example. He's a normally perfectly healthy player who got a freak injury, and it was never in doubt he'd come back and be the same player. In fact, didn't he even play during the very same game that happened?

This is a lot more serious. Couple that with Baron's age, the fact he's carrying more than 'just' this new knee injury. Is it really going to be worth it doing all the rehab again? He's spent more time doing rehab the last few years than he has been on the court, and this was before last nights injury. I just can't see it happening I'm afraid.

[blacknapalm]

you realize baron was contemplating retiring after his back injury this season, right? GS baron was one of my favorite players to watch. that's when you saw a motivated baron. he's older now though and has various ailments.

even if he rehabs his knee, he could tweak his back in the process. chronic back problems are serious. just look at tj ford. he's not even 30 and he was forced to retire because of his back.

we don't even know what kind of structural damage he has. the tendons and ligaments in his knee could be severely strained, leaving behind lots of scar tissue.

he's had a really rough thee seasons and he may just call it a career. it wouldn't be shocking at all imo

[obonpaxis]

I can't imagine how good this guy would have been without injuries. He blew his knee out at UCLA and has had back problems almost from Day 1.

[wally_world]

Exactly what I did when I first saw it.

Also, I hate LeBron, but he isn't smiling. He's like "Oh shit."

Just like I said. I LOL'd when they said maybe no structural damage. People saying "It's not that bad, just a dislocated knee".

The Patella is quite motile so there is a chance of it being dislocated without rupturing any ligaments. That's just not the case for Baron, but otherwise a dislodged patella is quite common and recovery is no longer then 4-6 weeks.

I hate to see Baron go like that. He was a great teammate while in Charlotte and I will miss seeing him play.

We will be without BD and Chauncey.

This is a lot more serious. Couple that with Baron's age, the fact he's carrying more than 'just' this new knee injury. Is it really going to be worth it doing all the rehab again? He's spent more time doing rehab the last few years than he has been on the court, and this was before last nights injury. I just can't see it happening I'm afraid.

Well, he's going to go through extensive rehab either way obviously.


I don't see him coming back either though. It's going to be the 13-14 season for him if he wants to make his return, and he was a pretty marginal player as it is. Can't imagine him contributing on the NBA level with even less athleticism and over a year of playing no ball.

Too bad because Baron definitely earned playing as a valuable reserve on a nice playoff team in his last years. He shouldered some bad teams for a long time and was a warrior on the court.

Damn, out a full year...

Well, Jeffries is playing when two weeks before the series started the news was that he was going to shutdown and operate the knee.

Baron Davids need to man up
