The way Indy plays, I wouldn’t be surprised if they got on fire or went ice cold. This is the team that also lost to the Bucks without Giannis or Dame.

No…strains are tears of fiber, you are asking for a far more traumatic event …cortisone shot is for inflammation of tendons or joints…

I don’t think us losing is a forgone conclusion …Precious could easily go nuts and same with Deuce

This is just the Randle situation all over again. Fans keeping their hopes up that he will come back with some rest while the Knicks withhold vital injury information. Until I hear a diagnosis of a grade 1 sprain (which is the only diagnosis that will bring him back this season) I am believing he's done for the season. Fool me once...fool me twice...Not this time.

It doesnt work on muscles, but you can give a triple shot (diclofenac, dexamethasone and diazepam) an NSAID, corticosteroid and anxiolytic (wich works also as an muscle relaxant,

Hamstrings are not shoulders... washed up Baron Davis was able to play through hamstring injury and he was using an orbitrack bike in the minutes he was off the floor

I wonder what wrinkles we can add to replace some of OG. I'd like to see iHart get the ball in the post some more and see if he can make plays but doesn't show a lot of game to score the ball there. Maybe he's hiding something.

Jericho should play some too.

Cavs getting smacked again.

This is really messed up. I think if we’re healthy, we are in the finals.

I always believed we could upset Boston if we had Mitch-Bojan and OG and even with just MItch and OG...
And my reason was two key things. Our last match up and the home game they lost to a butlerless Heat...

Unfortunate about OG. Great that we have a 2-0 lead, but it’s crazy how he got hurt this season both times right after he had some nice games. He was looking like 3/4 Kawhi against the Nuggets and Heat in late January before he hurt his elbow, and now this. I love the guy, but he’s a damn tease lol.

Will Thibs start Deuce or Precious? Who plays more?

Jalen / Deuce
Deuce / Donte
Donte / Alec
Josh / Precious
Isaiah / Precious

Or

Jalen / Deuce
Donte / Deuce
Josh / Alec
Precious / Josh
Isaiah / Precious

Maybe Jericho sees some minutes, though I doubt it. Alec is the next man up judging by his riveting 1 minute last night.

I just think Divo will have a big game-along with Precious...

OG can take all this series and the first two games in Boston, with the Knicks hoping to steal one ... perhaps as likely without him as with him. Then he comes back for G3 or G4 for the tie. That's like almost 2 weeks and he could be 80% or so by then.

This is doable.

That's assuming it's a mild grade 1 sprain. We'll just have to keep guessing, hoping and wishing until the Knicks officially come out and say he's done.

We had a shot at it this year. All of it. I don't wanna say die until we're out though. It's been a heck of a ride.
