That's dumb

Your comments are correct. I always said I would quit playing before I played against people who do not know what they are doing.Its not just that..I played College bball..and when you are at a diff level than your opponent bad things can happen..not saying this is the case but its a higher risk than it would be practicing with your peers. Its like a 20 yr old college player playing pick up game vs some 45 yr old wanna be trying to step in take a charge to relive the glory days etc..its just different.
You cant keep players in a bubble no..but u can sure minimize the risk.
Glad you enjoyed it! Disappointed I only have 8 disagrees so far. I got way more than that on this board when I said Simeon Carter was not a player.I got a good laugh from this, thank you.
Thanks for the update, hope this is trueHis CCL coach said after the game that the trainer felt there was nothing major wrong with Lewis's knee. He said Lewis was pretty scared at first and the trainer was trying to calm him down and let him know everything seemed fine.
I hope the trainer knew what he was talking about.
thanks for the update, hope this is true. Although he had a poor jump shooting night, he played a really good game. Seems to have a knack for finding the ball. Drove to hoop pretty effectively, finished well. I see him as a classic 3 all the way. Needs to improve his ball handling and dribbling skills ... which I am sure he will.His CCL coach said after the game that the trainer felt there was nothing major wrong with Lewis's knee.

Anybody at the game see how Lewis injured his knee? Hopefully, that report was correct and its not major.
plus as Prohm has said before it doesn't really help the players in development. He would rather have them in Ames working on their games. How many other schools do these rec leagues?Its not just that..I played College bball..and when you are at a diff level than your opponent bad things can happen..not saying this is the case but its a higher risk than it would be practicing with your peers.

Not sure the trainer could make that diagnosis on site but I hope it is correct. And I know for sure his CCL coach doesn't know anything.
Lewis did seem really scared when he initially went down and the trainer and Derek Hannah who runs the league did a great job of calming him down and getting him iced up etc. Fingers crossed it was just a strain/hyper extension and nothing serious.
Injuries like that are really rare in the Cap City league. To see both Lewis and DeTae McMurray (sprained ankle) go down in one night is something that just doesn't happen. While I get the point of different skill levels leading to injury, last night that wasn't the case. All the guys on the court for both teams, with maybe one or two exceptions, knew how to play. Just a freak thing that happened. And it could have happened just as easily in a pick up game at Sukup without a trainer on hand.
I could not see what was happening at first with the trainer. I am sure he was scared. When something you have worked so long and hard for is jeopardized it can be scary.Not sure the trainer could make that diagnosis on site but I hope it is correct.
