Not sure if he was “forced” but we shouldn’t question his heart anymore.

95% of the "forced to play" people have a certain flair. Hmmmmm.

- He should play
- He shouldn't have played
- He should sue the Warriors
- Lowry is dirty
- Toronto fans are classless

We can't have enough of this.

Undercutting Looney I guess? He’s more clumsy than dirty. He flops a lot but in no way is he dirty imo.

It could be the opposite in that kd forced to play to show he could lead a 3-1 comeback we really don't know

I don't see the gun... Where's the gun?? Isn't that what people think? He was forced...


He's a grown dude, it was his decision to play, no doubt.

I was jokingly making that up about that non existing "Lowry is dirty" thread.

The play I refer to was the Kevon Looney injury. They were calling him out in the game thread.

So many scorching hot takes tonight. It's entertaining but ultimately bottom of the barrel basketball discussion. If KD doesn't get injured and if they would've won with him in the full game as well, his previous injury probably doesn't even make any headlines. If there was widespread concern about him playing prior to this game I think that's one thing, but all I saw was a small contingency of people thinking that he should have a minutes limit.

And the whole Raptors fan stuff is dumb too. Every fanbase has classless fans. I'm sure some of them didn't know he was injured and cheered, and I'm sure some of them knew he was injured and cheered. Doesn't mean that every person in Canada or the fanbase should be held accountable. **** outta here.

:lol: you think doing a couple of dance moves for 5 seconds is equivalent to playing in an intense all out do or die Finals game.

The front office needs to be responsible, otherwise, what the hell are they good for?

Everyone placing this squarely on KD is missing that so much of the NBA is narrative, spin, misinformation and rumor.

The Warriors have way too much smoke (with how this was handled and communicated), and now a HOF player with a potential career-ending injury on their watch, to be declared completely innocent here.

Investigate the hell out of this, and, KD, come out with exactly how this went down.

At the end of the day only KD knows if he should’ve played. It is really on him
