Be a god damn shame if Curry's injuries wreck the Warriors playoffs. The whole world wanted to see SA vs GS at full strength. Still possible I guess. Obviously they don't need him to close out the Rockets Wednesday. But the Clippers would be probably even money if he can't play, and the Spurs would crush them.

I think a bad report is going to come out on steph. Probably best case for clips if steph is out. They probably win the series

Really hope curry is ok.

Why do you think that?

Beat reporter claiming warriors doctor told him it is being classified as MCL sprain pending MRI tomorrow.

I don't want that.

We can't beat them at full strength.

But, I really wanted to see if the gap in talent was really as big as perceived.

If so, I would be at peace if Blake got traded this Summer.

Apparently, Recovery time depends on severity and could be anywhere from a few days to eight weeks.

So no one will know how bad this is until the mri.

All nba fans hoping for the best.

They say sprained knee for now but nobody knows till probably tomorrow.

 

[Heatles84]

Yep. Hoping for a extra game for Portland too. To get a extra 2 days of rest..

I do to. If Golden St. is going down, it better be at full strength. I'm not a big Dubs fan, but the bullshit they've had to deal with as far as criticism goes, makes me hope they win it this year so people will just shut up about them. Now if they somehow play Miami in the Finals, that's obviously a whole different story.

All nba fans , except in Cleveland who now want to see Khawi go down, are hoping for the best.

FIFY.

Kerr didn't sound very optomistic.

 

[gordontrue]

Did the towel boy lose his job?

Royce Young: Draymond Green said on @NBAonESPNRadio that Stephen Curry was crying in the huddle when he was told he couldn’t come back in.

Knee sprains are almost never good. ACL and MCL injuries are often initially diagnosed as sprains.

I think he'll be ok. I would not play him again this series. That gives him at least a week off then depending on the injury I would consider giving him the first 2 games of round 2 off which would give him nearly two weeks off.

I don't think its that serious (could be wrong though). Usually they're able to know if it is an ACL/MCL the same day and just do the MRI to confirm diagnosis. I think if it was a torn ACL/MCL we would have heard that by now
