no medical background here at all, but is there a reason when something like that happens the medical personnel does not administer morphine immediately....like they do in the movies when a soldier has been shot or something. Maybe I am just allergic to pain, but I would prefer to reduce the pain first, then deal with my dangling limb. |

Especially when you're on the court for the world to see. "Doc, give me a hit so I look all stoic and cool on tv while my foot is rotated backwards. Otherwise I'm going to scream in horror." |

Interesting comments to me from Ex-NBA player/Celtics forward Shavlik Randolph, who had similar injury to Gordon Hayward. "It's about a 4-6 month recovery. The ligaments take 6-8 weeks and the tibia was about three months to heal in all the places it broke. Ironically, I had the same injury and as bad as it looks it does heal back to 100 percent and does so surprisingly fast. I think there's a chance he could be back this season if he really pushed it. The team will be cautious to bring him back too fast, but I think he could by the end of the season. Maybe not back to full 100 percent by then, but I wouldn't be shocked if he can and does play." |
