2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

Curry played in the Olympics? Where? In your dreams?

no you are right....- my bad - he had to lick his wounds after Kyrie whooped his ass up and down the floor in the Finals.

No LeBron, minor problem: Cavs keep stumbling without the King

"The loss dropped Cleveland’s record to just 4-18 in games in which James didn’t play since the start of the 2014-15 season, when he returned for a second stint with the franchise. That’s a winning percentage of just .182."

"That’s right. Without James, the Cavs play worse than the worst teams in the league."

Wow you're stupid. Dude was obviously hurt since round 1. He did not play the olympics because of the injury that he suffered against Houston.

Now you're going to act like Steph was 100% in the playoffs right?

 

[WiggyRuss]

I thought we concluded that Kyrie was much fresher because he was hardly used in the 4th qtr, and all the other guys were forced to use much more energy?

definitely. Love and Thompson are great mismatches against the Wizards. Its why I legimately feel like love is a more important loss against the Wizards against maybe even the Warriors.

Kevin Love is so valuable to the CAvs because certain teams just have no answer for his skill set. Washington is DEFINITELY one of them.

Markieff Morris is painfully unqualified to guard Love- and Gortat is way to slow to keep Tristan from reeking havoc all over the court.

Kyrie rightfully took a back seat and let the Cavs exploit huge mismatches they have in the front court----

but when they needed him and LBJ got sent to the bench- Kyrie does what he does best- take over games in crunch time like few other guys in the league are able to do.


24 years old and Kyrie will be making his 4th all star team. A 40 point game in the Finals. ROY, All Star Game MVP, Rising Stars game MVP, 3 pt shootout winner. Gold Medal winner as the starting point guard.

This kid has Springfield written all over him.

you think anyone is 100% in the NBA playoffs?

On JUNE 7th it was announced that he would not play in the Olympics....The Warriors were up 2-0 when he announced this.

Quit making up lies.

Citing recent injuries, Curry to skip Rio Olympics

what? it was announced he would play on June 7th? wtf are you talking about now?

 

[bksballer89]

Do you not think Curry injury that took place in the playoffs had no impact on how he played?

 

[bksballer89]

Can you read? It was announced that he will be missing the Olympics on June 7th. You just try to assume he missed out on the Olympics because the Cavs defeated the Warriors in the finals. This is obviously not true since he announced he would skip the Olympics in June when the Warriors were up 2-0 in the finals

What was the day he got injured on?

How long did they anticipate he would be out for?

What day did the Finals start?



this was YOUR quote from June 8

Please not with the lame garbage Steph Curry injury excuse anytime he plays shitty.

LOL, let me quote your post back to you

"On JUNE 7th it was announced that he would play in the Olympics....The Warriors were up 2-0 when he announced this."

[WiggyRuss]

On April 24th- Curry slipped and injured his knee. He missed 4 games. He came back for Game 5 vs. the Blazers on May 9th.

Missing a little over 2 weeks- which is what the prognosis was. About a 2 week injury.


The Finals started on June 2nd. OVER 5 weeks from the day of the originial injury.

Ignoring the Irving lovefest, which we clearly disagree about, Washington has Mahinmi returning and he should be able to match up a little bit better against Thompson. Given Love's injury, it could be a tough matchup for Cleveland.

Here is the difference with you and I.

I will acknowledge that he was not the same Steph as he was before the injury. I just didn't agree with some Warriors fan using that as an excuse especially after they were up 3-1 vs Cleveland.

All Warrior fans know it was clearly Harrison Barnes fault we lost. Everyone knows that.

I got this answer. So how did the Heat win twice & go to 4 straight Finals? I'm gonna go w/ pure luck. Although I'm pretty sure that answer is incorrect.
