I haven’t seen a replay but I thought he was actually hopping on left foot protecting the right leg right after block. So I agree thought right leg was the issue first. Anyone else see this?When I watched the opening tip, I thought he came down a little funny or seemed to limp slightly immediately afterward- but, then I thought it was the other foot & not the one that had Achilles injury. The injury happened so fast at game's beginning, maybe my mind is saying they were connected
Polley chimed in on Instagram. These guys really care for one another.
You're really reaching for something to be mad about hereBut the injury clearly happened BEFORE that. The article just as clearly claims that he injured it while running back down court.
No attack @RichZ but you should not let the small things bother you, life is short. Look how much the actual situation has bothered a team, family and entire fan base. A ESPN writer hastily said he was running down the court when he should have said "attempting" to run down the court. A fly poop in a mountain of pepper.I don't know why this particular thing bothers me, but it does. The ESPN news article about the injury contains this line...
"The injury occurred during the first minute of Sunday's 64-61 victory after Akok had blocked a shot and was running back down court."
Yeah I don’t get the angle here. What’s so bad w what they said??You're really reaching for something to be mad about here
That's what I saw real time. A man in distress, don't need to see it again.That replay is hard to watch. His heart wants to keep going but his body won’t allow him.
