Kyrie Irving Suffers Facial Fracture

[Gooner]

Kyrie breaks his face once every couple of years.

They say it's accidental but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasnt.

It's a bad karma for all those occult tatoos on his body. He should look at that as warning signs.

Injury prone player gets injured, nothing new here

You are walking on thin line here. - Ken

Coming from Reddit NBA boards there, this kind of line is grounds for a warning?????!!!

Go away clown nobody asked you

Don't you have your own injury prone player to worry about?

Just ignore him next time, let us mods handle it.

What is there to handle, what's wrong with me stating a guy with an injury history specifically this as injury prone

Rightttt, i call things like i see them, i don't have a team or player i focus on, everybody can get it. I'm a mavs fans i rip our guys too in the mavs board and here. Nothing i said wasn't facial, he has an injury history of facial fractures, that's obviously not to be disputed

LOL at this getting a warning considering all the garbage that's posted on the GB - heck, that's posted in this very thread. Multiple jokes about him being a flat earther or being woke, but a comment on him being injury prone when he's fractured his face before??

**Sensitive Nets fans lean on report button**

Conley played playoff series with a broken face this injury is non issue.

Does anyone have any idea how many concussions Kyrie has really had? How about reacuring migraines? They say he is very moody just wondering about how much real damage his head and brain have taken? I think these are issues.

Anybody who gets catches an elbow in the face is prone to breaking a bone it's a sensitive area. Kyrie is one of the best guards in the NBA at breaking down the defense and attacking the rim aggressively and likely prone to catching a rogue elbow. The fact that most players don't even miss games means your post was kind of pointless since "injury prone" is placed on players who get hurt and miss time. Kyrie has knee issues that need to be managed carefully no doubt but your post offered zero insight or furthering of the conversation other then to troll hence the warning.

Be better

Dude's got some weak bones or something. Never heard of a basketball player breaking his face 3 times in his 20s.

He actually doesn't draw much contact when he drives. He twists and turns and ballerinas himself away from the defender. It's why he doesn't draw very many fouls.

I agree with you that people are going to get their face broken if they take a really hard elbow to the face. But it's happened to him 3 times and he's 27 years old. So since it's a pretty uncommon basketball injury it makes you wonder if his face bones are weak and he's not really getting hit as hard as it would take for other people's face to break.

And since the injury doesn't typically cost games what are we even talking about here?

I'm sorry you do not like talking about this topic. FYI you are under no obligation to do so.

I wasn't trying to make fun of the guy or blame him for anything. I get that he can't do anything about being injury prone. He just is. But he's a star player on a max contract so I do think it's somewhat notable. I've been watching MMA for over 20 years and I legit can't think of anyone who has broken their face more than once, and those guys and gals take elbows to the face for a living. Meanwhile this basketball player has broken his face 3 times (with Cavs, Celtics, and now Nets). Cheers.

If that's your stance then the thread shouldn't even be open, i didn't start it, i simply posted in here stated the obvious. As has been mentioned, many guys catch elbows, he has this seemingly every year, does that not equate to injury prone to you?

I just fail to understand why fans of teams get defensive when anyone states the obvious about the teams they support. People kill and killed the mavs for our terrible contracts, parsons, wes, barnes, etc and all mavs fans agree yet you get defensive about something as you state isnt even a big deal
