Sorry to see that injury Laker fans

What the heck happened? To this game & Randle? I turned it away from the game at the start of the 4rth with the lakers down by single digits.

That has got to be a dagger in the heart of these guys. Broken leg and perhaps Achilles.

To me it looked like when Randle went up he kicked himself in the leg and broke it

 

[Retroram52]

That means Sacre is going to be playing more.

 

[RobToxin]

Julius Randle is a tenacious player. I believe he will bounce back from this and still have a great career.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice shot Sacre.

 

[OutlawImmortal]

Randle just looked like he tried to go up without stable footing. I can't believe he broke his leg with minimal contact.

 

[Inimical]

Just a freak accident. Feel so bad for Jully, and my fantasy team. jk lol, i didnt pick him on my fantasy team. What too soon?

 

[Inimical]

That means Sacre is going to be playing more.

Dear god no!!!

 

[Retroram52]

We are down a big and Kelly isn't coming back just yet, Inimical.

 

[Inimical]

Well i have to go back to the predictions page now lol

 

[Retroram52]

Well, the Lakers got the lead down to 18. We start 0-1 but the biggest loss is the injury to Randle. That was a killer. On we go to Phoenix tomorrow night.

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

Fuck, I just find this incomprehensible.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Dang, that sucks about Randle. There goes a season of development. I don't think it will affect the Lakers record wise though this season. You just lose the development time.

 

[True Lakers Fan]

Imagine the mamba walked off after nailing 2 free throws and they are carrying Randle OMFG!!!! This is killing me to see.

I can guarantee you that never again will you see a player try to take two free throws and then walk off on a torn Achilles. No one is that tough.

 

[Retroram52]

We are just snake bit with this injury bug. WE are in a rut as far it is concerned.

No - the Lakers made too many bets with old players like Kobe, Boozer, Nash and etc. They would have been better off blowing up the entire team including Kobe and starting with a young group that they could have started to develop.

crazy fluke injury. get well Julius. looks at 2015 draft

 

[Retroram52]

Early reports indicate Randle has a broken right tibia which is the bigger bone in the lower leg. He's done for the year and he'll probably go into surgery.
