Yes. Terrible of him to put his neck in the way of McHale's arm.....

Yeah! He totally neck butted him!

(If I recall correctly Rambis was committing any number of in game atrocities, as was his habit. To Chief’s point, this foul was a message, what goes around comes around.)
 
For those looking for an update…

Gilbert signed his first professional contract with Parnu Sadam, a club located in Estonia, and joined the team in mid-January.

The KML, the top league in Estonia, was already in full swing by the time Gilbert joined, but he’s already made a major impact for a team with a 25-9 record and currently in second place in the league standings. Gilbert has taken over the starting point guard role and averaged 12.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.0 steals in his first six games with the team.

Gilbert is coming off his best game to date, finishing with 15 points, four rebounds, six assists and five steals in Parnu Sadam’s 94-79 win over Ventspils last Wednesday.

Yep, but the move to Wichita state was good for him. Fresh start, less pressure, and I’m pretty sure they won a conference championship.

There were a couple of those in the last few games of last season:cool:

In this case of A Hawk - if there is any way that Hawk should have known what was going on behind him without having eyes in the back of his head, please let us all know.

Sanogo should have let him know yes, I do feel that the injury was avoidable though.

He still had a year of eligibility after witchita

In all fairness to Sanogo and out of curiosity, do we know that Sanogo didn't say anything? CU was up by 12, Sanogo was almost half court away, and their center is setting a pick 60' from the rim. Totally unexpected in that situation.

That’s right, if it were a job situation, in the accident report Sanogo would’ve had to say that he was on the other side of the building and didn’t see the accident.

All this and also Sanogo shouldve been persona non grata in locker room after game. That was his call. In fairness to Adama, that stuff happens, everyone makes mistakes, but it can only happen once, you learn in a hurry to call out screens to protect teammates.
Expand ...
I seem to remember the replay showing Adama looking backward (the direction he was running to defend) at that moment.
 
Kolumbo said:
Hong Kong Phooey. Players get knocked over all the time due to charges. Haven't you ever seen Shane Floppier play? He could just as easily let the impact knock him backwards. In fact, watch Kalk actually lean forward in anticipation of contact. He had to move forward in order to not get knocked backwards.
Expand ...
he's supposed to allow himself to fall down and take himself out of the play? this is a really dumb take. he's not taking a charge, he's setting a pick. He did everything right. Sanogo did not. Unfortunately Hawkins got hurt as a result. Move on.

Will just say we agree on Sanogo's responsibility as I had mentioned previously. Context-- Rarely do you see contact on picks in the backcourt vs in the frontcourt running offensive sets. It was a great pick set up by the ballhandler.

Peripheral vision is an asset for a defender. Tough to miss a 7'2" dude alone in the middle of the floor- I'll leave it at that and hope Hawk can do his thing for the team by the start of the BET. His contributions are invaluable to our future successes.
Expand ...
It's easy to miss anything when it's behind you.
 
I had a feeling he wasn’t playing against DePaul, cross our fingers he is feeling well first most importantly and can play in BET.

@Umami Zen

Sanogo was 20 feet away WATCHING the play. Kalkbrenner was behind Hawkins making it impossible for him to use his peripheral vision.

Evaluated? He was 100% out of it, wobbling and probably talking gibberish. 2-4 weeks, maybe more.

Should get a CAT scan, dangerous stuff here.

My credentials- I slept at a Holiday Inn last night.

I never realized we have so many Doctors on the boneyard. I guess wobbling is a medical term.

Last comment. .You and I don't disagree on Sanogo.. If you've ever played the game--You're always looking for picks as a defender as you move up court defending the ballhandler. I am truly sorry that Hawk got picked off and apparently suffered an injury as a result of the contact on the pick. It was a basketball play made all the time. -Most defenders avoid the contact in the backcourt.

Its history. It happened. Let's get Hawk back for the BET.As a former D-1 football player with concussion familiarity. I feel for him. OK?
