Someone from Orlando needs to get knocked TF out, dirty ass team.That could ruin this kids career. That MFer wasn’t reaching for the ball, he turned his body into his leg.

The refs are at fault for not getting control of Orlando’s reckless play.

Damn that's rough.

Hopefully he can come back 100 he was putting it together this year.

Yeah feeling bad for Ivey and the Pistons. Were showing some nice progress this year.....we should have kept that Detroit pick and traded the Washington pick instead (if possible). Looks like that Pistons pick may convey after all.

That's pretty positive news given the circumstances---almost like the "best case" so to speak. Will take around 6-8 weeks to recover from usually...he may be able to make a full recovery and return with like 20 games left....Pistons may also just be tanking by then and calling it a season for Ivey...

BTW to me one of the biggest reasons for viewer's decline are injuries (next to playing style). The current playing style with 50 3-pointers a game is not very attractive but the whole load management theme with players sitting out multiple games (even like games against divisional rivals etc. etc.) is a bad look overall. It has gotten to a point that you are actually surprised when you don't have at least one or two star players sit out important regular season games.

Somewhere(jail cell) sham is smiling at that monk take. He just went 1 on 3 with 30 sec left to take the lead

Sham bumping that new liangelo on his cd player

I forgot sham was a Monk fan until I saw him go at 3 defenders in the paint with the game on the line and it clicked. Oh yeah, this is another wild boy that sham fcks with. He really has a unique palate.

There's a list of players that would have tanked everything Rose has built which had been strongly pushed by some posters and I for one am glad the FO is much smarter than those 'realgms' on here.

I also wouldn't name those posters explicitly or implicitly because this isn't the appropriate thread for that sort of discourse or banter but they know who they are.

I'm naturally a hater. So this is easily my 3rd favorite acquisition of the offseason. Coupled with embiid breaking down and maxey taking off 6ers fans have to be in hell. And I love that for them.

"Embiid is an mvp if he could just stay healthy. Maxey is making a leap but the FO fcked everything up by signing a washed pg13."

[stuporman]

PG13? I don't think anyone of any age should be allowed to watch him play...
