so is there any question abt kyrie's injury being worse than the cavs let on going into the game last night?

fuck this, new season please

kinda sad that the champs are basically The Team That Didn't Get Injured This Year
― Clay, Friday, 5 June 2015 21:56 (nine years ago) link
thats always a huge factor tho
― lag∞n, Friday, 5 June 2015 21:57 (nine years ago) link
maybe moreso this year
Wow brutal

This gonna be a sweep now cavs r gonna come out on fire for like one quarter and then the depression is just going to creep over them when mike miller is trying to play spot minutes to rest dellavedova

feel like this playoffs would be thought of much differently had the clippers not choked

wldve been better def

Some championship contender always kind of does choke tho
― juice college (agent hibachi), Friday, 5 June 2015 22:04 (nine years ago) link
welp so much for a real series
it's weird rooting against lebron, i haven't been particularly invested in any teams from the last few finals but i've always pulled for him
― brimstead, Friday, 5 June 2015 22:04 (nine years ago) link
But yeah western conf finals would have been much more competitive and entertaining

houston played good but blah houston

i bet warriors straight up -235, warriors in 6 or less at even odds, and warriors in 4 at +800. I am happy rn

injuries and timing of injuries are always such a huge deal. they are heavily favored tho so its not like they are an undeserving champ. altho yeah i def think they got lucky in not having to play LAC or SAS.
― Spottie, Friday, 5 June 2015 22:09 (nine years ago) link
oh yeah i'm not saying dubs are undeserving, they're obv a historically amazing team, but more that i'll prob always think of 2014-15 as the year everyone got injured and the dubs managed to escape that
― Clay, Friday, 5 June 2015 22:11 (nine years ago) link
yeah the warriors did catch some lucky breaks with injuries, but thems the breaks. they probably would have won it all if everyone were healthy too
― k3vin k., Friday, 5 June 2015 22:11 (nine years ago) link
imo these playoffs have been grebt.
― Falconetti Pot (Leee), Friday, 5 June 2015 22:22 (nine years ago) link
naw
― k3vin k., Friday, 5 June 2015 22:23 (nine years ago) link
Granted I've only been focusing on one series per round thus far.
― Falconetti Pot (Leee), Friday, 5 June 2015 22:24 (nine years ago) link
haha
― Spottie, Friday, 5 June 2015 22:27 (nine years ago) link
on the upside I guess seeing a 60 point game from bron out of necessity will be kind of cool, he can def still win one game by himself
― slothroprhymes, Friday, 5 June 2015 22:38 (nine years ago) link
but yea leeching the last real chance for this being at all competitive super sucks

they were also the best team tho
― lag∞n, Friday, 5 June 2015 23:02 (nine years ago) link
xp that too, was hoping for at least a somewhat competitive series. and it was a very close game last night until OT
― Nhex, Friday, 5 June 2015 23:02 (nine years ago) link
they were absolutely dominant all year and steph curry beat all the other first teamers, i don't mean to take anything away from them, just sux how many teams were hobbled either all season (thunder), or significantly once the playoffs came around (blazers), or decimated during the offs (hawks, wiz, grizz, cavs, basically everybody)

Rachel Nichols ✔@Rachel__NicholsMatthew Dellavedova told me he missed last call for the #Cavaliers bus last night & they left without him. Took an Uber back to the hotel.
your new cleve starting pg
― call all destroyer, Saturday, 6 June 2015 00:16 (eight years ago) link
He looked scared bringing the ball up
― Mr. Murphy in the wine bar. (Sufjan Grafton), Saturday, 6 June 2015 00:29 (eight years ago) link
he had approval to miss the bus to spend time with his family iirc
― micah, Saturday, 6 June 2015 00:52 (eight years ago) link
maybe this is so obvious as to not need mentioning but i do feel it needs mentioning for ilh posterity: cavs played kyrie 44 mins in his first game back after a knee injury and he injured his knee
― lag∞n, Saturday, 6 June 2015 13:35 (eight years ago) link
its not 100% bad luck
― lag∞n, Saturday, 6 June 2015 13:36 (eight years ago) link
oh for sure, he fell awkwardly on a knee that was already messed up. it's not a given that he would have been as good in the next few games as he was coming off of like a week of rest.
― call all destroyer, Saturday, 6 June 2015 13:54 (eight years ago) link
I've got the Warriors in a bet with a kid in my class. He wins, the class gets a free period to play around on their devices; I win, he has to go a full day without talking.
The rest of the class seems conflicted on whether they want the device time or a day where he doesn't talk.

it's the finals and he was playing well though, i don't have much of a problem with it
― k3vin k., Saturday, 6 June 2015 14:34 (eight years ago) link
yeha obvs this is for all the marbles but they def took a risk
― lag∞n, Saturday, 6 June 2015 14:57 (eight years ago) link
yeah k3vo otm. they needed to win that specific game very badly, and if kyrie is gonna play in the series then he needed to play.
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 June 2015 15:24 (eight years ago) link
he can play w/o playing 44 mins, i mean was that their plan or were they just like fuck it at some point
― lag∞n, Saturday, 6 June 2015 15:27 (eight years ago) link
maybe it was brons decision
― lag∞n, Saturday, 6 June 2015 15:29 (eight years ago) link
they prob could have played more shump-jr-bron-thompson-mozgov lineups but i guess blatt wanted to play pretty small and... dellavedova is not good
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 June 2015 15:39 (eight years ago) link
also like, what's the line where it's too many minutes? 40? 38? 35? idk. maybe he just shouldn't have been playing.
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 June 2015 15:40 (eight years ago) link
the guy is getting like 45 million over 4 years. they pay him to play in these games if he can play
― k3vin k., Saturday, 6 June 2015 15:44 (eight years ago) link
They gonna pay his next contract when he's washed up from injury at 27?
― tsrobodo, Saturday, 6 June 2015 15:50 (eight years ago) link
if kyrie is washed up from injury at 27 it's not going to be because he played 5 minutes too many in the nba finals at age 23
