Now if this was an injury that was bothering him for the last few weeks, then why did he play in the all star game? It might have been better to take that full week. Im not saying that is why last night happend, but if the guys hurt he needs to rest.

He played less than 20 minutes and took 5 jumpshots...big deal
hes been playing through the knee pain all season, there was no reason to sit out the asg

He hurt his knee in less than 20 minutes. It is a big deal. It was the ****' all star game, an exhibition.  KG should not have played in it.  

Than he shouldve sat out the dallas game, pretty sure thats how it goes.
He didnt hurt himself in the all-star game..calm down people..
he jogged up and down the court and took 5 jumpshots...omg our seasons over

For some reason, you don't seem to make any difference between the Dallas game and the All Star game.  The Dallas game counts, the All Star game does not.  When a player experiences soreness, they usually play through it for games that count, but sit for games that don't count, so that they can rest.  Rest is an amazing thing when dealing with nagging injuries. It often prevents them from more serious consequences.  Let us just hope and pray that KG is not facing anything serious here.

It's going to be tough beating anyone without him.
This is a 55 win team without KG. They'll handle his absence fine as long it's only a short term injury.

Obviously, a longer term injury which sees KG out for the playoffs destroys the C's chances of retaining the title.

  • The good ole days.
Please, please, please don't make that assumption.  I am keeping 10 fingers, 10 toes, 2 kidneys, 2 eyes, 2 ears, and everything I else can crossed in hopes that he is a-okay and ready to go on Sunday.

I'll pray for you. I'm in a similar boat soon. I am going with my family to the March 17 game in Chicago. I really want to see the team whole and rolling.
