   You don’t want to fuck around with spine injuries. Worst case scenario you can end up paralyzed.

   I have a feeling he may have played his last game as a sixer. (Because he’ll be included in a trade)

   Between Mo and Melton, never heard of these injuries before. I feel like every day people get these injuries but never know that’s what it is called. They just chaulk it up to some muscle pain. But having a 24/7 medical staff helps come up with all the accurate medical diagnosis.

   Lumbar spine stress is a new one for me. Dude probably has a bad bulging disk that fucks with his sciatica from time to time.

   This is the technical term. I hope D-Melt is ok. He’s a personal favorite. I hate when people talk about trading him 😞
