Looks like an ankle or knee

Doesn't look good at all.

He ALWAYS sprains his ankle and then comes back a day or 2 later. I sometimes start to think he does it just for attention.

Classless comment. Do you play basketball? Ankle injuries happen all the time.

Coming from some who looks like they like T-Mac, injury comments like that should be the last thing you should say.

That didn't look good

Yeah that wasn't very good at all. I feel sorry for the Mavs and Mark Cuban hopefully he recovers quickly and they can start winning.

The Nets have the Mavericks draft pick =D!

Too bad it's lottery protected =/... I wonder what the protection on the pick next year would be if the Mavs happened to fall into the lottery though...

That looked awful. Hard to tell whether it was knee or ankle or both. Bad timing for the Mavs. Here's hoping it's not as bad as it looked.

Hopefully its just the ankle.

Looked bad. It looked like he twisted his whole leg.

Youtube or it didn't happen.

Dirk better be alright, he's one of my favorite players.

ACL hes done...

It kind of reminded me of Kwame Brown's injury this season

It was his ankle and his MCL.

Dirk's could be the same.

EDIT: Michelle Tafoya just said it's a leg and ankle injury. X-Rays pending.

No he had to be helped off the court.

Nope, he had to be helped off the floor and once he entered the tunnel, he wanted to test out if he could put any weight on it and couldn't do it. Looking at that replay, it looked quite bad.

I am not a Dirk fan but you hate to see anyone get hurt. Especially at a crucial point of the season like this.
