    Yeah, I hope he is okay. I am hoping he has a breakout year if he can play this year.

      Man that sucks. Doesn't sound like he was wearing his seatbelt? He could of been wearing it. Hopefully he is okay. Doesn't sound good though.

          Slim will be fine, they're saying he'll miss this year but should make a full recovery and be able to return next year. It sucks that he doesnt get to have this year to further develope his game. What he can do right now is player really good D, rebound pretty well, and hit the 3. Hawks just resigned Ira Newble who plays better D, rebounds better, but doesnt have an outside shot. They also have Dion Glover, who is a tremendous offensive player. But he has earn the nickname D-Off for obvious reasons.

              Yeah I remember when he and Martin were at Cincy, they played some nasty D. And on O they had Satterfield to dish the ball around to them, that was a good team.

                That Cincy team was good. They could have won if Martin had not gotten injured. That sure was a great college team.

                  That's right he got hurt right before the tourney, if he had been healthy they were just about unbeatable.

                    That sure was a great team which consisted of Martin, Johnson, Tate, Mickael, Sattenfield, and Logan. I was hoping that they would win it that year.

                            "In the long term, his prognosis is excellent,'' Triche said. "His playing status for the upcoming season is in question.''

                            At least it sounds like his future is gonna be okay. I'll be praying for a quick recovery and for his family.

                              I'm relieved that it ain't career threatening. A tough break for Johnson. I hope he has a speedy recovery.
