the most tragic and seemingly random injuries can happen without warning

just ask shaun livingston, who saw a semi-promising season thrown down a serious mine shaft when he landed badly after dunking.

the terrifying this about this injury isn't that he messed up his knee that bad, but that he did it doing something all of us who play basketball do; jumping. by simply landing funny, he will not play ball for 8-12 MONTHS. that shit is so sincerious.

the injury becomes more tragic because he was beginning to show signs of realizing his potential as a truly special point guard. sure, he might not have been magic, but he had the same height, and was flashing court vision. well, i guess we have to wait another year for the revolution to come.
