Anyone else think that Richard injury was gonna be season-ending?

Oh my geez, when Richard left the game with his knee injury (though at that moment, it wasn't clear what type of injury it was), and had to be carried off without being able to put any weight on one of his legs, I was thinking he was gonna be out for many weeks/months/or possibly the whole season, looked real bad.

Then, 5-ish game minutes later, he came back on the court. Whew.

The announcer said it was a knee on knee collision and Richard got the worst of it.

The way he rolled around on the floor, yeah it looked like he was shot. Granted that probably hurt really bad - based on his reaction... I was glad to see him come back in the game, him leaving in that situation really seemed to help shift momentum in Minn. favor. Carl provides this team with great leadership and a calming influence - need him out on the floor.

I was afraid it was an achilles or acl injury, but was hoping it was just a cramp. Was very relieved when he came back on the court.

Was it a knee or an ankle injury? I couldn't tell.
