Because if a players injury takes him from being an elite athlete to an average athlete if he plays smart he can impact the game. He also has above average size for his skill set and that hasn't been impacted by the injury.

Gordon playing well.

Why didn't Curry try?

If this game continues the way it's going, it's gonna be Minny vs Indy in the finals.

No way. Even if healthy, they would ran out of gas, this roster is 6-deep in playoffs and with injuries I have no idea how they are keeping up.

Why are they not attacking Gordon on every possession?

He looks fine. He’s like 75% people are overreacting to this injury for some reason like he’s going to die if he plays lol

He can’t change direction or jump. Literally had to turn 180 to the left the one time they took him off the dribble. Are you sure you’re watching game 7?

AG is clearly injured. Don't feed the trolls

They should get roasted if they lose. Even if Gordon and MPJ were 100% healthy, there is no reason for them to get knocked out in the second round.

#1 SRS in NBA history
#1 margin of victory in NBA history

Who will they trade him for? Giannis. ****, not sure I want that if I am a Bucks fans.

AG could give it his all to play with a grade 2 sprain and Curry couldn’t do it with a grade 1 sprain and he’s the legend. Tells you about curry

We've had so much time to make adjustments. This is getting embarrassing.

Thunder looking like frauds.

This is the team that is supposed to win the chip? Been playing this entire series like its a regular season game.

PushDaRock · Post #475 » by **PushDaRock** » Sun May 18, 2025 8:00 pm

seems incredibly obvious to have whoever Gordon is guarding set a screen for SGA up top to get the switch and let him go to work on a guy that can't move

OKC looking really tight. Denver looking really calm. I’m genuinely amazed that Gordon is playing.

OKC needs to create some easy baskets in the paint or in transition to get back in the flow

Most likely it's Chet moving out. While he wasn't the reason OKC has been a disappointment, OKC needs to upgrade their roster ASAP

AG NOT coming out yet still!!

How am I trolling? He’s obviously injured but I expected worse tbh. His presence alone to be able to hit corner 3s and be a big body is worth playing
