Spo is 53 lol he's gonna be in his coaching prime for a long time unfortunately. I know Finch just tore something but it doesn't affect coaches :lol:

If the Nuggets watched this game I wouldn’t be surprised if they have Murray out


And i won't blame them if they sit him out. It's just the Lakers at home so they can still win that one.

Yep. This is why his value was so low. Hope it's not serious and he's okay. Id be really worried about that achilles though.

Even Cleveland. Two big teams. He's arguably their most indispensable player (not their best player). They need him badly.

Shouldn't those calf sleeves help prevent these type of injuries?


They always report tightness or hyperextension until a MRI is performed. They have to confirm with imaging if its an actual tear.

Whoever loses this game should be completely ashamed and embarrassed, especially if it’s us.

Were playing a poor game but it doesnt matter. Heat fans might think theyll get one on the road again but it ends in 5.
