Uh oh...Durant.

I'm sure it's nothing serious.

Durant just tore his acl

That's 1 funky lava lamp.

You see Lava?

Durant just went out. Warriors are all jumpers now. If he doesn't come back, the Warriors probably will go to the line 7 times

Yeah, that's one thing KD has brought to the Warriors that has been underrated. Being on a back to back if this is out of hand early, I think the Warriors may cut guys out a little later in the game.

Hyper extended knee, but will undergo MRI.

Ball?

I want him to go to A California or Zona team so I can see him live more often.

So does his father, lol

Great signing for the Cavs. He'll bring some added toughness to their team. He'll be particularly useful against teams in the East with solid bigs. If they utilize him correctly, he could be a focal point of that second unit with his passing, dribble hand-offs and screens. I think Kyrie might benefit the most from having him on the team.

Cavs fans will have a tough time admitting this publicly, as it will ruin their argument about the games he missed this past championship series.

With Durant's potential injury, who will the NBA waive to allow them to back fill some cheap talent? These waiver additions seem awfully fruitful for some of these teams. I'm surprised the Raptors let the Wizards beat them to Jennings.

He has two other meal tickets * coughs * sons that he needs to mirco manage * coughs* Supervise. Easier to dowhen they all play in Cali....and the opportunity for endorsements doesnt hurt!

Absolutely nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

The usual fighting?

I haven't looked back on all of the early postings but saw plenty of Cavs talk when I was here, which is the usual subject. That and trash talking between Cavs/Heat/Lakers fans(which there probably was more of when I wasn't here). On the NBA side, Cavs signed a big guy and KD got a boo boo.

He isn't NOW but he is now going on his 3rd season playing with Lebron. Before Lebron came back he was still very young. 5/6 years experience isn't young in term of NBA experience but in the real world, of course it is.

Stop with the fucking excuses and trying to move the goalposts. Kyrie isn't still very young. He's a 5 year NBA veteran. 5-6 years of experience isn't still very young in the real world either. End of story.

 

[trojanfan12]

last year it they all picked on kyrie's health and lack of playoff experience....

now- picking on how- after playing 3 years at mostly his age 19, 20, and 21 seasons- with the Cavs tanking for at LEAST the first 2 years of his career and his best teammate was Dion Waiters and a less old hurt Varejao- that he didnt lead them to the playoffs.

it cracks me up.

Now, is Kyrie the type of guy that can carry a team to a championship by himself? of course not. There are probably only 3-4 guys in the entire league like that.

What Kyrie IS?- without a doubt a top 20 player- id put him somewhere between 11 and 15. 4 time all star at the age of 24. former Rookie of the year. Starting point guard on a gold medal winning Olympic team. MVP of the world championship tournament where the US team won the world title 2 years before this last Olympics. 3 pt contest winner. all star game mvp. rising stars game mvp. 57 point game AT San Antonio, 55 point game WITHOUT LEBRON draining a game winner against Portland- and of course- one of the, if not the CLUTCHEST shot in the history of the entire NBA.

teams like the Heat, Lakers, Nets, Magic, Kings, Mavs, Nuggets, Pistons, Knicks, Suns, Hornets, Jazz, Blazers etc. etc. etc.- the minute he suited up for them would EASILY be the best player on the team.

a LOT OF grape jelly going around.

Not only is this post chock full of stupid. It has the added benefit of having nothing to do with anything. Congrats!!
