Scott Christopherson's Injury

**ChrisMWilliams** · 11-02-2009, 10:48 PM

We all gasped when Scott Christopherson went down in the second half. He came back to play just minutes later.

I asked Coach McDermott about this after the game and he assured me that Scott cramped up and is just fine.

Good news....this team needs to avoid injury in order to exceed expectations.
I'm looking at Christopherson to be that guy that makes some crunch 3 pointers this year.

Looked like he popped his kneecap out of place from where I was standing. Which is typically about as bad as cramps but still spooky.

Other than Brackins and maybe Hamilton I think that this team may be deep enough to handle some short term injuries better than any team we've had in decades. Let's just hope that we don't have to find out.

Not gonna lie, when I saw Scotty C go down on the sideline, I got really nervous. Last thing we need are more injuries in another major sport. But, when I saw him check back in and run like nothing happened...I had no more worries. Glad everthing is alright.

Christopherson has some crazy hustle, almost too much for some one that has torn an acl - if memory serves me right- im affraid if he doesnt hold back A LITTLE it will be a short season, wish he didnt have to worry about it, but i would like to see him play the rest of his career at isu, than save one or two balls out of bounds... what ever he thinks he can do, ill be happy tho, just needs to think bout the long run... he has some huge potential

I really don't think that you can play to not get hurt. In fact, I think doing so makes another injury more likely.

He is a nice looking player. It was good to see him get back in the game.

I don't know what popping a kneecap out of place looks like but I hope it never happens to me. Doesn't sound like much fun.

It was clearly cramps when I saw him getting a rub down near the exit. It looked like he was going to the locker room, but stopped before the exit and got his leg massaged. I felt better when I saw that, because I thought it was a knee problem initially.

very true in some surcumstances. but when he went down, he was straight up hustling, which is what we need, but the end of the play you have to hold urself back from flinging yourself out of bounds around another player when you would think his knee would be injury prone. ino its easyer said than done, expecialy with some that is as competitive as he came off. good open Christopherson.....

thank god basketball is starting, finally some good info and forums going on.

When it first happened, it looked like he was in a lot of pain and that he was worried about his knee. My first thought was, good bye Mr. Christopherson. Hello kick to the nuts.

I came up with the impression that he was afraid his injury was very serious as well. He laughed it off, seemingly relieved and embarrassed over his initial reaction, once he made it to the sideline. He was soon back on the floor showing no signs of an injury. I assumed he was OK. The kid has a lot of heart.
