Official 2017-18 NBA Season Thread

Looks like he is going for that..Honestly he would be foolish if he rushes it to comeback for the playoffs to play 40 + minutes a night for Thibs..Then again, some players are just tougher then certain others who are on into their third or fourth medical opinion as we speak..

Should have opted for no surgery.

[sasaint]

Wouldn’t that be some ish if Kawhi asked the FO to resign Patty and Pau?

Haha! Seriously, if that's NOT the case, it seems like evidence that PATFO constructs the roster without soliciting any input whatsoever from Kawhi.

this dude ed up his knee, is going to get surgery, the season is about to be over and he'll be back before Kawhi.

You can't believe this .. It went from missing 'opening night' to an entire prime year getting wiped out because of "soreness".

I'm not inside this dude's body, but I'm definitely having some serious questions about his toughness and general mental state with regard to dealing with physical constraints. If Pop and his crew, of all people, are essentially telling you to man up and play, I can pause for a moment to ask those questions.

What's the best way to go for long term recovery of meniscus injuries?

I remember Ron Artest taking the quickest option so he can return quicker for the playoffs, but it was worse for his long term health.

[TheDoctor]

All because Drunkford's adopted son wanted daddy to draft his best friend.

Jimmy Buckets going Tony Parker w/ his rehab .

[Chillen]

They should just sit Butler for the season.

Thats not true. Meniscus surgery has not been proven to be any more significant than a placebo. Like a lot of these surgeries today, NOT NEEDED

And Utah and Portland won as well. Spurs are going to be tied in the loss column with Portland, Minnesota, Nuggets and the freaking Pelicans after tomorrow's loss against the Cavs. (Oh and the Clippers and OKC are at 27 losses and Utah's coming up with 29 losses). 's tight. I wonder how many tiebreakers the Spurs hold over any of these teams.

Tomorrow's Rockets vs Nuggets game should be fun though.

I don't think tie breakers are established yet - too many games left for us to play against those teams.

the media is dead set on jinxing this game up for AD and it's a must win game too.

He doesn't need the extra motivation.

Of course they are. Aldridge has had success against him. First home game back, I'm hoping he has a big showing. He's gotta set the tone

I don't understand why the Grizzlies keep considering him "untouchable", tbh...Ok i know they have lowkey a bottom 5 front office. But, could get any more obvious that he wants out but he doesn't have the balls to ask for it?

By the time this guy gets traded he will be worth a 2nd rounder ..

[SAGirl]

What are we looking at here?

It seems like Okafor standing in the lane for 5 seconds at least, then bad defense from him after all that standing in the paint.

This one looks like an Embiid blatant goaltend.

Just a little summary of refs this year.

5 seconds? He didn't leave the paint the whole defensive sequence.

Gotcha. Refs have been specially bad this year. It’s like some aren’t even paying attention sometimes. The all the technicals to the complainers.
