Spaceman Spiff Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 They say hyperextension but I wouldn't be surprised if they came out with worse news in the next day or so. If it is only a hyperextension, does that still mean he's done for the series? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ball Security Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 This is disappointing to not have Giannis and Young. In other news I saw a rumor of Wiseman +7 for Siakam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 after this season the complaining about load management is going to be gone for a while. Not that it would have prevented any of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have to recognize how much worse the product is with all these players out. You've got to give them rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Load management doesn't have anything to do with a freak accident of someone's knee being bent back in the wrong direction. An extra day between games wouldn't have prevented that. That said, these guys do need more rest. This series is going to the Hawks. Even if Giannis does come back they were getting beat pretty solidly tonight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giannis had a giant land on his knee. Trae stepped on a ref. Kyrie landed on a foot and touched his ankle to the floor. Kawhi took an awkward heavy step trying to avoid a defender and sprained his knee. These aren’t non contact injuries, they’re the kind you get rested or not.

There will always be some injuries, but the amount to important players seems particularly high this season and especially impacting the playoffs and play-in situations. AD, Lebron, Jamal Murray, Donovan Mitchell, Mike Conley, Kawhi, all the Nets stars, Jaylen Brown, Embiid (even though he played again, Giannis, Young, Beal, Gordon Hayward and I'm sure I'm missing guys. I mean, only one team remaining has their best player still playing. Barkley on Inside the NBA trashing the Clippers players for whining about playoff P getting criticism was gold.

Dr. Do Itch Big Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Even without the Giannis, the bucks should beat a trae less hawks. They are more talented as a team. Show me something Kris and Jrue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purbeast Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Randomly came across this video on youtube and it was pretty interesting to watch and informative. It's also tough to watch because he keeps showing the injury while explaining it. Cliffs notes is that this doctor would be shocked if it's not a significant injury.

Just saw a notice that there is no structural damage. While great news, no timetable for his return. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough. I should change it from “Looks like this guy may be wrong” to “Looks like this guy may be shocked.” 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ball Security Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I want Phoenix to win and I’m enjoying watching them play, but damn, I don’t think I’ve seen Ayton set a pick when he’s not moving his feet. Wouldn’t be surprised if he gets called for it at a key time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
