That's if you believe it showed that.

I don't. It's a work.


Hmmm. Who am I going to believe here, the official medical report or Dr. Turdbiscuit, Internet M.D.?
Tough call.


Use your eyes. If Tatum got hurt on that play then he's made of glass.

Nothing burger. He's playing.

I'll accept your apologies tomorrow night.

Personally, I love a tough grind it out type of game, what I don’t like is trying to injure folk! That’s too far! If you want to push and grab a little, fine, i have no problem with a lil against the rules, hand-checking. Grabbing and pulling someone in the air, has nothing to do with that! That doesn’t make you tough, that means you’re Garfield! Talk is cheap, just hope they get a taste of that when it’s said and done!

LET’S GO CELTICS!!

KCP has always been dirty

I wouldn't be surprised if he played, he's tough. Still hit the floor awkwardly and it's perfectly believeable that he hurt his wrist despite your obvious medical expertise there, Dr. Oz.

Can’t believe nobody was in that fools face! Al was chirping but that craps not enough. Bring in an enforcer like Tillman and retaliate. That’s how it’s done, not having every Celtic circling around Tatum asking if he’s ok?! C’s looking soft if you ask me. Bring that physicality in game 2 and put that punk on his a$$

Despite your best attempts at sarcasm, I dismiss your take outright.

He's not hurt. Team is protecting him from his soft antics the other day. Coach saw right through it. He's done with it.

Tatum will play. He's not hurt. There is no bruise. Everything will be fine.

I have eyes. He landed like anyone else would land. Awkward is not the word I would use to describe it.

They did an MRI. It's a Medical Fact. An NBA Team cannot promote Fake News.

Just wear a wrist brace JT and play. They need to sweep this guys so they can rest longer after. We probably lose without JT.

A big Horford game is coming
He said to KCP after the hard foul - "that is 3 times"
So he is pissed. We know what happens when he is pissed

So you're saying that the NBA has never lied about a injury?

That's a interesting take.

Turdbiscuit is kinda funny, though. If I was called like that, I'd laugh my tits out.

Whatever the report says, I'm just glad JT didn't suffer an injury that makes him miss multiple playoff games.

**** outta here with KP not being good in the first game. Dude was pretty good on the defensive side of the ball.

I for one would like to be called a turdbiscuit. That would be a compliment compared to things I've been called before.

It's just weird calling someone who hasn't missed a playoff career game and wants to play every minute of every single game soft. Since getting drafted in 2017, he's had three "extended" missed time (missed 3+ games) despite dings/injuries -- groin injury (3 gms), ankle sprain (4 gms), COVID (5 gms). He's by far played the most minutes since joining the NBA while playing in two Olympic teams and one World Cup team. I think the only reason he doesn't play is 'cos the medical team's telling him not to. If he's soft, the entire league is mush.

Tatum isn’t soft. That’s a ridiculous narrative.

Some Twitter doctor is saying that if there's no ligament damage or fracture, this wrist injury could bother Tatum for a game or two and that he will be fine within a week. So I, without any medical background and believing everything I read on the internet, would be a bit worried if he misses more than a game.

****.

The wrist bruise/contusion via MR is **** real & will linger.

This puts a lot of pressure on us.

Ortho clearly not my deal, but my medical instincts (even outside endocrine & IM) are outstanding.

****. ****. Mother **** KCP.

PS We were indeed headed for a repeat in 2009 until that awful night in Utah. Truth & KG & Ray were balling & we had a dominant RS.
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.
