| Description | bears expect things to get worse for Petrobras before they get better. The lawsuits are destroying investor sentiment. The New Yorklawfirm of Labaton Sucharow also cited a number of politicians in the Providence lawsuit, including Petrobras CEO Maria Gracas Foster and Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff as “persons of interest” in what has become the biggest corporate fraud in the country acute;s history.

NBA star Paul George snapped his leg in Friday’s night’s Team USA scrimmage in Las Vegas, and the worst part of George’s gruesome injury is that it was completely preventable. You can see the video of George’s injury here. ( Warning: The footage is graphic, and I’ve moved the photo to the bottom of this post .) The scrimmage was taking place at Las Vegas’s Thomas Mack Center, and George a two-time All-Star for the NBA’s Indiana Pacers got his leg tangled up on the basket stanchion after making a play to foul James Harden. “That was a play you see 20 times a night in any given game,” Matt Watson, an NBA editor at SBNation tweeted. “The biggest fluke injury I’ve ever seen.” But it wasn’t a fluke, at least not entirely. ultimate team coins On the Thomas Mack Center’s court, the basket stanchions were about two feet closer to the court than in an NBA game, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported. ( Updated Windhorst statement .) If the stanchions had been their normal distance, it certainly would’ve reduced the risk to George and most likely, spared him from injury altogether.

It’s tempting to blame the atypical courts, which sometimes are selected for business reasons Ware was playing on an elevated court because the NCAA hosted the game in a dome that sat 35,000 people but players have suffered injuries from the run-of-the-mill crowding around the court, too. Nerlens Noel missed his entire rookie season in the NBA with a knee injury after getting his leg tangled up on the stanchion in a Kentucky-Florida college basketball game last year. | ||||
