2015-16 NBA Thread (feat. the Wives)

With a diminished Curry, LeBron wins and signs with LA as. Free agent.

 

I don't think Durant leaves, if he leaves, until after the 2016-17 season. And if he does, I think he would go to a team that's a near-title contender, since that's what he's missing from his resume. So, I think he would be eying teams closer to championship contention at that point, or, signing with someone else to do the Heat / Celtics thing.

 

Who is the idiot reporter who keeps asking questions involving the Houston flood?

Draymond Green calls out reporter for Houston flood question

 

I'm glad Draymond had some idea of what the reporter was getting at because I didn't have a fucking clue. Kept rambling on about the flood game 3 no flood game 4 last year this year. It was gibberish.

 

So I guess we should brace for a Stephen Curry torn ACL today, right? It's sickening. I wonder if he misses next season, a la Derrick Rose.

 

Woj reports: Grade 1 MCL sprain, out two weeks. Damn, my friend is good at this.

The biggest action for the Warriors involves tonight's Portland-LAC Game 4. If that series can go six or seven games, the Warriors could have Curry back midway through Round 2; and if the team can handle Round 2 without him, there could be three weeks or more from now until the conference finals.

 

Grade 1 knee sprain for Steph. Out at least two weeks. By my estimation, that means he's probably out for at least the first three games of the next series. Though the Clips and Blazers could do the Dubs a favor and go the distance to buy Curry some time.

 

LTL and I were sharing a brain, apparently.

 

Man, LeBron knows his hoops:

LeBron James says there is a not-so-secret ingredient -- beyond a talented roster that features reigning MVP Stephen Curry -- to the Golden State Warriors' success: avoiding injuries.

From NOVEMBER.

LeBron on Warriors: 'Most healthy team I've ever seen in NBA history'

 

So he has no excuse for going into the Finals having swept all series

 

I love when a marketing staff doesn't do a Google search to see an opponent's road jerseys. OKC, I'm looking in your direction

 

Jeez, brilliant!! When the Heat went to 4 straight finals, I don't recall either of the Big 3 being injured. So their rings are tainted too?
