That was a brutal, horrible injury. I hope it doesn't change him for the worse when he comes back.

From what I saw the CLE v BOS game was pretty interesting. I especially loved Rose guarding Irving and going at Irving on the other end. Also D Wade's block in the last few minutes and then his oop to Bron. How many times have we seen that.

Also, does anyone know what was with Horford? He was getting might worked up there and I think got a tech foul for his troubles.

That was hard to watch. Paul George had a similar thing happen a few years ago and he's alright now. But yeah, Hayward's gone for the season most likely. Sucks for the Eastern conference battle between C's and Cavs.

It was Lebron's fault tbh, he got to the alley oop a bit late even though he read the situation precisely and sorta close lined Gordon against jae crowder

 :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o
Target training paces (min/km), calculated from 5K PR 22:49 :
Easy run : 5:48
Tempo run : 4:50
VO2-max run :4:21
Speed form run : 4:02

---

it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?

horford seemed extra emotional after the injury to hayward.. think that had something to do with it IMHO.

if anything, hayward was way too over ambitious on that oop.. jumped from way too far out. freak accident though.

Boston is going to run out of gas midseason without Hayward imo, just puts so much more pressure on tatum, brown and co when he's out. Marcus smart looks so tough this year, might be most improved player of the year.

But boston is still going to be tough, they still have morris that can fill in for hayward, who's prob done for the season tbh.....

Cavs are going to be tough but though people say lebron is still in his prime, i disagree. His skills/experience is at his prime, but his lateral speed is really not there like before.... his explosiveness is still there as well obv..... but lateral speed is so important on defense..... u can't always expect to make up for it with chase down blocks.....

Lebron definitely looked "older" last night, which is still nuts considering how good he played. But, that could be related to his ankle .. he could have been extra cautious. We'll see like 10 games in, but last night had me finally seeing some "aging". I personally hope it's just the ankle.

man between NFL and NBA lately, the injuries are just too much.. everyone is getting severely injured.

i'm injury phobic also, so this stuff isn't helping my psyche.

jeremy lin's reaction is just gut wrenching imho.. you can really see he is like "holy fucking shit", in shock, trying to grasp what just happened, then realizes he's seriously wrecked, and breaks down.

that has to be a gruesome injury ... patellar tendons are so damn strong, you never hear of them rupturing.

I hope it was just some freak accident and not amplified by potential cortisone/injections in his tendon.. :/

To me, this was just as impressive as a 50 pt game. Very efficient against a very long and tough Milwaukee team on nat'l tv @ milwuakee.....

completely agree.. "efficient" is beautiful. I think that's why I love watching Steph, he's unselfish and extremely efficient. Kyrie is doing that in BOS right now with these performances.

Contrast that to some of Kobe or Iverson's 50+ games, where they just take every shot going nuts .. still incredible, but I really do love the more effortless 25-30's with the rest of the stat line filled out. WB is a monster but lots of times it looks like he's "forcing it".

Steph and Kyrie have alot of similar qualities to me.. Steph with the range/J advantage, Kyrie with the penetration advantage. Both guys have incredible ball handling & passing, though very different styles.
