Michelle Robinson became understandable after suffering her second consecutive significant injury of the season on Saturday night at Milwaukee.
The third-year center expressed frustration after Bucks was diagnosed with a fractured right leg after a traumatic landing in the first quarter of Saturday 102-96.
“It simply came to our notice then. I watched the video a few times which was some BS, ”Robinson said Tweeted Early Sunday morning. “The whole year has been a sigh of relief,” which is to shake my king’s head.
Robinson, 22, was appearing in his fourth game when he fell victim to a broken bone in his right arm after missing 15, his victim against Washington on 12 February. He crashed to the floor grabbing his leg after going for a rebound in the middle of Milwaukee’s Brooke Lopez in the first quarter on Saturday. Robinson walked out of the court and after a while he had to help in the locker room.
“Naturally, they care a lot about each other. “Michelle is great for us, so you hate to see her,” said Knicks coach Tom Thibode. “They are a very close group. You feel for Mitchell because of the work he puts in.… You feel for a fellow player and that’s part of the game. You have to deal with it as best you can. “
Derrick Rose, who returned from the lineup almost a month later on Saturday due to a positive COVID-19 result, and Ryan Barrett were also apparently upset to learn of Robinson’s diagnosis after the game.
Rose went missing during her postgame interview on the MSG network and later added at the Zoom conference: “It dries up, man. Especially the more I got to know them. But for someone like him, seeing how hard he worked to get back, for that to happen, he just succeeds. “
Rose, the 2011 NBA MVP, missed the torn ACL throughout the 2012-13 season and suffered other knee injuries during his career.
“Team, everyone knows – he knows how the team feels,” Rose said of Robinson. “One by one, I didn’t talk to him. But I’ve been through a lot of injuries myself so I know his mind has probably just run, gone crazy. So I’ll probably let him calm down and [Sunday] Whenever he’s free, I’ll probably be with him. I’ll cut it. “
The Knicks could again tackle veteran big men Nerlans Noel and Taj Gibson in place of Robinson until the two-time All-Star Center starring for Thebodo in Minnesota chases people available on buyout markets like Andre Drummond or Gorgui Dying. .
The Post’s Mark Burman reported before Saturday’s game that Nix had decided to chase Drummond to save the Cape’s space for the summer and because he wanted to stick with Robinson at the center for the rest of the season.
