WORST 12 HOURS OF THE 12 LAST HOURS OF MY LIFE
Good. That shit looked rough, and getting taken out in a wheelchair is worrisome.
Fuck the Lakers, but glad to see AD is okay.
Was prob just vertigo. Which is pretty damn scary in the moment.
Hope he’s alright. This goes to 7, don’t love our chances
Glad he’s ok.
What concussion? AD doesn’t remember getting hit on the head, he’s fine.
So he didn’t laugh at macgruber on the plane ride home I’m assuming? Glad it’s not as serious as it seemed.
Am I crazy or he got ruled out for a concussion really quick? And even more alarming they haven’t said what the injury is?
My theory is both him and Draymond had concussions but they’re still playing
Good. Whether we get eliminated tomorrow or push it to 7 it should be with all the major players available
Glad that he’s doing alright.
Idk if this is going to come off as mean or insensitive but I’ve seen AD roll his ankle, writhe in pain, scream bloody murder, and be back on the court within like two minutes lol. I don’t think him getting a wheelchair off the court is a telltale sign that he has some crippling concussion and shouldn’t play, he just has a low pain tolerance.
Did anyone even believe he was injured? This guy lies on the floor for 10 minutes when the wind is a little strong.
Good for him to get some rest they weren’t winning that game anyway
Haynes got sources like he the doctor checking him out damn
“I DONT REMEMBER NO CONCUSSION!”
Of course he is
Good to hear.
They found a doctor that would say this is not a concussion lol

This is a vintage series, man. Feels like we jumped backwards 5-8 years.
Hope the team isn’t rushing him back tua soon
A setback as in, the team not doing a proper evaluation
Lakers: they gonna make fun of you AD. So we will ask
again…. You good?
AD: Im goot. Letty to played some brasketbull!
The duality of NBA Twitter is clowning AD for being a soft bitch while simultaneously accusing medical staff of covering up a serious injury.
Shocking turn of events
Hope they’re not rushing this, I know the lakers have a huge chance this year, but AD’s health is important too.
Lakers sub is fucking insane right now. “Warriors players just want to hurt us! They’re dirty.” Then the highest upvoted comments are “Tristan should knock out Steph Curry!” “Darvin Ham should chokeslam Kerr!” I don’t get it. AD is cleared to play, he didn’t get hit with an elbow like Sabonis, he got slapped with a forearm. The warriors sub has some delusion in it too but it seems there’s debate between the incidents. Lakers sub is a straight echo chamber.
“Bah Gawd, is that Draymond Green at the Lakers practice facility with a steel chair?? 😱😱”
I mean he got hit in the temple. That’ll make him woozy, concussion or not. Also eye area. That’ll make you dizzy and wobbly with stuff trying to correct itself.
You don’t need to get your head rung very hard to get wobbly. Hell, even with concussions, some people can smack their head and get a huge lump and be fine, other times you can get tapped in just the wrong way way lighter and you’ll get concussed.
It’ll be pretty fucking obvious if he’s playing through a concussion though.
Well, for one, he probably won’t be able to play if it’s bad, or two, he’ll look like a shell of himself like Love did while he had it.
Concussion be damned.
The Lakers marketing team did extensive diagnosis and determined that Davis is fit to play.
Dude really needed a wheelchair lmao
After Shaq and Chuck laughing, all I could think was: damn, AD is lucky he didn’t play in the 80s and 90s.
In all seriousness, we better not have a Tua incident on Friday NBA
Thank god this guy has never had a setback or I’d be worried.
I always laugh when injury prone players get hurt in nba2k shit gets me rolling
