Nate Robinson tears his ACL

[timobusa]

Is this a higher than normal rate of ACL tears?  I'm curious.

I also can't help wondering if PED use makes injuries of that sort more likely.

Well if there was ever an NBA player that was guarenteed to be using PEDs, it's Nate Robinson.

His body is just....wrong.



That, and well, it looks like some magical force pushes him up as he leaves the ground.  Spud Webb was one thing, but Nate must have what, a good 60 extra pounds on him? (and still gets higher!)

Nate is a freak of nature, really athletic, he could play any sport and be a pro in it.
Whatever he lacks in height he has in athleticism.
I don't think his body looks as you put it wrong

I follow this guy on twitter and instagram and all he does is post work out pictures and videos.
It looks like he's just someone just loves to be fit and healthy.

He will for sure lose a bit of his athletic ability, but I don't think his career will be over, he's only 29, he probably has 5 more decent years ahead of him

I always loved Nate. He's a gamer, a warrior.
But... I do wonder why Danny gave him away so easily...
