The little boy WILL miss two weeks, at the very least.

Damn. Fortunately we're stacked enough to close out the C0ckrockets and possibly the Clippers.

Expect Clippers to bust their asses tonight to close the series as soon as possible :lol

[Levity]

[Bobcats2013]

Wow.

[dazzer87]

Portland needs to extend it to 7 games.....

[Mr. Jabbar]

lets go blazers

lets go rockets :biggums:

[HurricaneKid]

Should they throw Houston another game to push off the Clippers series an extra 2 days?

[fragokota]

Should they throw Houston another game to push off the Clippers series an extra 2 days?

I think it's worth the risk and they should consider it. Rockets pose no threat to them.

[moongaze]

This is what I expected to happen. Curry puts on an act and show over every little boo boo

[Bobcats2013]

Should they throw Houston another game to push off the Clippers series an extra 2 days?

Nah nikka. Bogut and Ezeli are good, long as they're good Livingston can get us a game or two.

Blazers just need to extend 1 game, thats all we asking for. Curry should be back for game 5 or 6.

[ArbitraryWater]

He will be re-evaluated in two weeks...

[ArbitraryWater]

so Warriors gonna be losing on purpose to Rockets twice more now :lol

[Nash]

Should they throw Houston another game to push off the Clippers series an extra 2 days?
yeah that ain't happening since it says Curry will be revaluated in 2 weeks so he could be out longer. they ain't taking that risk.

[Kawhi]

Biggest Clipper fan in the world right now.

[BigTicket]

Might be early enough. Warrior can certainly beat the Rockets without him, and maybe the Clippers as well, but they need him back for the Spurs. Not just back in a limited way either, but fully back.

[Mike smith]

Just because he is going to be reevaluated in 2 weeks doesn't mean he will be 100% and ready to play. Gunna be a hard series to win against the clippers

[hold this L]

Expect Clippers to bust their asses tonight to close the series as soon as possible :lol
Yep shit... Hope the Blazers win tonight. I was hoping for 10 days with him getting 1 more extra day. Two weeks is 4 games, and that's assuming he doesn't need any more rest/time. :cry:

[Levity]

im reading that the 2nd round starts may 5th. do they generally start the 2nd round earlier if both matched up seeds finish the first round at the same time?

edit: nevermind. that site was basing everyone on pure speculation

[LoneyROY7]

It's the Clippers year. You heard it here first.

[Nash]

I hope Clippers beat them. Want new blood in the West.

If clippers win next two games then they would play game 1 either Saturday or sunday

If Clips go up 3-1 tonight, both Clips/Warriors have their final series game on April 27th, which means Id think they start the second round on April 29th. Although, not sure how that plays out with 2 Eastern series' possibly still open at that point.

curry played with a bum ankle against the spurs few years ago and was a bad luck three from a game 7

i trust curry at even 80% against the clips brah. dubs took them 7 games without bogut or ezeli.

[LoneyROY7]

Clippers Nation STAND UP.

[BlazerRed]

Miss AT LEAST two weeks.

[Meticode]

I'm sure the Warriors can fight through it. Good luck to them. I'm sure the Clippers are licking their chops like a bunch of rabid wolves.

[ArbitraryWater]

So I think Curry will start (if hes fine after his re-evaluation) game 4 in LAC...

GSW could be in a 1-2 hole, and Clips honestly win the game he returns in. He wont immediately have that impact, maybe disrupting them even a bit (not his fault, just the run up process after the injury that you need to go through).

[Bobcats2013]

Even if the Clippers battle it out and win, then it's like "**** man, we gotta play the Spurs now? This is bullshit." :oldlol:

Curry game relies so much on cutting and his jumper and if his knee isn't right it will limit his game and if he is still not 100% after two weeks the organization isn't going to risk further damage. My guess is it will be at least 3 weeks til he's able to play. But even without curry the warriors still have a very good team and home court advantage but the clippers do have a good chance of winning if he is out the whole second round.

[ArbitraryWater]

Injuries are a part of every sport. The Dubs were on a remarkable run of good injury luck. It ran out yesterday.

truuuuuu

[ballinhun8]

NBA takes an L today.



Best player in the world might see his team eliminated without him able to play. Or even a chance at making history.

Injuries happen in every sport. The Dubs have gotten incredibly unlucky with injuries

2015 Steph and Klay head injuries, Mo Buckets injured, Andrew Bogut injured... fought through it and won title

Warriors will be fine. They'll tread water until he comes back and then they'll be back to their old annoying selves :lol


Hope the Spurs beat them still (at full strength)

[SsKSpurs21]

you dont throw a game vs rockets. you try to end it as soon as possible before another player gets hurt.

what you are hoping for is a blazer win.

[I know you are]

Kerr wouldn't do something so stupid - gotta try to win every playoff game.

If LAC wins today and Wednesday and GSW closes out on Wednesday, don't they start their series on Friday [that's when games 6 and 7 (if necessary) in 1st round are scheduled] with game 2 on Sunday?

youve been on this train for longer than ive been here bd. you know damn well its not over till its over :rockon:

[pedromarinho]

Isn't this a L/L situation for AMC?

If his team advances to the WCF without him, or even wins it without him (yeah right), wouldn't that be a proof that his team is stacked and can be superb without him?

If his team does not advance it's 73 without a ring... it will be remembered as a choke.

I'm sorry. It's your L to hold Curry fam...

2 weeks. Just in time for Game 3 or 4 against the Clips/Blazers. We still got this.

[Nick Young]

Warriors would be smart to let this go to 7.

[illmaticone]

Robert Klapper said a Grade 1 sprain takes 2 weeks for an average human being with just rest and no treatment. He said it should take 5-7 days for an athlete and expects him back for the beginning of the series.

No one knows for sure, but I don't honestly see him being out longer than the 2 week period.

[Lebron23]

Rockets needs to win game 4. I don't think So. JB Bickerstaff is the worst coach in the entire planet.

I'm sure they'll wait and see how the team is playing. If they're struggling he'll make a quicker return.

[Lebron23]

Cavs are going to beat them with, or without Curry.

[bdreason]

2 weeks. Just in time for Game 3 or 4 against the Clips/Blazers. We still got this.


CP3 will eat Livingston/Clark/Barbosa for breakfast. We aren't beating the Clippers without Curry.

[Ca$H]

He should fly to Germany for orthokine therapy.

[Spurs m8]

Blazers PLEASE extend this

:(

Get The Warriors to extend it themselves, you bum

[CuterThanRubio]

The universe is trying it's hardest to stop Nash from getting a ring, but Curry's knee should only be a minor setback this early in the playoffs.

The Clippers already lost to the Blazers once, so I can't imagine them beating the Warriors whether Curry plays or not.

They don't have anyone who can neutralize Klay, Livingston is too tall for CP3 to guard, and Draymond will be a handful for Blake.

[Spurs5Rings2014]

It's the Clippers year. You heard it here first.

Can't wait to rematch you in the WCF.

:cheers:

[KungFuJoe]

I have faith that Blake will find a way to choke hard in the GS series.

What kind of idiot thinks that winning is a bad thing? Your logic is that winning proves Curry didn't carry the team all by himself? Well, no shit Sherlock :facepalm

I hope the Warriors sweep the Clippers w/o Curry. How's that for Curry fam? And I'm a huge Curry fan.

[Naero]

I'm not fretful about the Clippers series. The Warriors have less talent on paper, but they are still more well-coached and more cold-blooded when it counts the most.

The intradivisonal rival might start off strong and even get the upper-hand at some point; but as history has echoed, the closer they are to the Western Conference Finals, the more they play to avoid losing rather than playing to win. If anything, if I was a Clippers fan, I'd be worried about this injury, because now the Clippers have the pressure of potentially failing to capitalize off of Curry's injury to reach the elusive Western Conference Finals.

I'm only worried about: 1. If Curry can actually return before the Western Conference Finals; 2. If he can shake off the rust with the Spurs/Thunder looming. Lower-leg injuries can ruin his shooting-motion rhythm completely.

[zbott]

Sometimes risk of re- injury can get in a players head ... don't know about steph ...
