yeh and there is a close up video of the injury that doesn't look good at all but at the end of the day, if he did rupture his achilles he wouldn't be able to push off when walking. And that video of him walking clearly showed him pushing off on both sides. So I'll have to stick to it not being a rupture


If you watch vid of the Kobe Achilles tear, he's able to walk on it too, somewhat gingerly though.



The main difference is that Kobe was clearly not pushing off and compensating with excessive knee and hip bend while keeping his foot flat the whole time. btw when I said excessive, I don't mean like he was bending a crazy amount but it was enough to compensate for the lack of push off

KD had a bit of a push off but that could've just been gravity making it look like he was pushing off.

The fact that KD had very little to no pain is kinda scary though


Its hard to tell too because he's walking off the court but with support. I hope he's alright but I have a bad feeling.

One of the concerns a few here had about a KD/KI pairing. Age and injury risks. Kawhi rumors are something to hold on to I guess. I wonder what Perry is thinking right now.

yeh the more I look at the video, the less optimistic I become.

I hope it just turns out to be a strain and he rests a few months, not just because I want him on the Knicks but for his own well being.

Durant leaving in a boot on crutches. Warriors are in trouble. This could be the start of irreparable damage done.

-The players (allegedly) were questioning KD and there was angst about him not gutting through like Looney and Klay
-The team rushes him back only to see him (from footage) tear his achilles.
-They did this in the finals before his big FA offseason.
-The Splash Brothers were supposed to be every teams kryptonite because...
-Green basically said we don't need you KD despite...
-Green being total garbage supreme this entire finals, like unbelievably awful.
-The team is old so guys may not want to fight as hard considering their fall without KD and the strengthening of other teams.
-FA may not want to join that organization given KD's mishandling after Kawhi being at the forefront of a similar situation.
-Given all of this, Klay has to have some reservations about his future there.

I would love if that last point about Klay was true. My ideal pairing is Klay and Kawhi

Problem with chasing someone as emotional as KD, wouldnt surprise me if he remains now. Kyrie same, no idea how he wakes up on July 1st could easily remain.

I'm not signing KD at all - not now or next year.

I'm done with him.

Knicks are cursed.
