Vertical Sources: Steph Curry's MRI on knee has returned negative, no damage, a Grade 1 sprain. Could miss two weeks.



He may miss the first 3 games of the second round but should be good to after that.

[TheGreatYacht]

Finish the Blazers off, quick. Clippers

[SouthernFried]

Well...that's good. I hope he returns.

Now it's up to the Clippers to take advantage of this small window of opportunity. Letsee...

[Hoops Czar]

Won't do much good if they're down 3-0. Also, the update said he'd be re-evaluated in two weeks, not that he'll be ready to go. Woj with the reading comprehension bads, tbh.

[LaMarcus Bryant]

These lucky mother fucks Jesus

[spursistan]

Finish the Blazers off, quick. Clippers
if the Blazers tie it tonight, you know these faggots are choking in 6 or 7..:lol..

[SASdynasty!]

Now they have Curry back AND get to have an excuse if we beat them.

[Texas_Ranger]

spurs need to finish of the Thunder first.... but yea, of course the Clippers will choke even if they get a 3-0 lead.

[NameLess Scrub]

If the Clippers don't capitalize from this, they should fire Doc Rivers, re-hire him, fire him again, then trade CP3 and Blake for 3 free Gamefly months, trade Crawford for a shotgun for the shooting, JJ for Keanu Reeves, and De Andre for a Swiffer.

[TheGreatYacht]

if the Blazers tie it tonight, you know these faggots are choking in 6 or 7..:lol..
:lol tbh

Still going to be fun watching Doc call out the moving screens and Raymond's dirty ass post defense

[skulls138]

Awesome! Now back to the task at hand, OKC!

Please don't underestimate the officials and Adam Silver. Who's just a taller more laid back version of David Stern

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Marc Stein is saying it doesn't mean he's back in two weeks, just that he will be re-evaluated.

I don't know how to embed tweets, sorry.

In before Curry returns for game 4, Clippers pull the biggest choke in history, backdoor sweep, and ESPN makes a documentary about how awesome Draymond and his mom are.

[baseline bum]

No way he misses more than two games. LOL at you dumbasses cheering it being nothing as if injury wasn't the big difference between The Beautiful Game and the 2015 Spurs first round flameout. Injuries are part of the game and of course I want the teams in the Spurs path to be dealing with them.

Re-evaluated in two weeks like Ibaka was out for the postseason. It's a 1-2 week injury, I'll be shocked if it takes until May 9th to see him on the floor with a title on the line. Besides, the Warriors can hide him on Reddick's gimpy ass.

[Chinook]

I know how to embed your mom.



Sorry, it had to be done.

Of course it had to be done. I mean, he was born, wasn't he?

Sorry, it had to be done.

Dad....is that you?

Remember how annoyed Pop was when Ibaka was able to return? :lol

Hopefully we beat dat azz again :toast

Dad....is that you?

Bend over, I'll show you who it is.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

:lol I'm just the messenger!

[Texas_Ranger]

The Warriors with a 100% Steph Curry are better than the Spurs, so if the Clipps take care of them it would be awesome.

[SouthernFried]

Watching Draymond is going to be very interesting. I think maybe he's not too unhappy about this. He's an Alpha Dog, and now he probably thinks this is his time.

I also think Draymond is one unstable fuck. I wouldn't at all be surprised to see him go off on someone, now that he's "in charge."

[I. Hustle]

Dad....is that you?

Close! It's your uncle!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Even without Curry for the first 2-3 games, I don't trust the Clippers to do shit against the Warriors.

[Arcadian]

It's not correct to say "no damage." If there's a sprain, that means there is some damage.

[Hoops Czar]

In before Curry returns for game 4, Clippers pull the biggest choke in history, backdoor sweep, and ESPN makes a documentary about how awesome Draymond and his mom are.

That nig is playing in game 3 on a bum ankle regardless. Remember when everyone thought Ibaka was done for the season in 2014 then, BAMMM, back for game three? The Warriors and media have a built in excuse if the they lose.

[Gervin44Silas13]

mouthguard chewing cocksucker with his HOT mom won't be 100% when he comes back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chris]

Well...that's good. I hope he returns.

Now it's up to the Clippers to take advantage of this small window of opportunity. Letsee...

They fucking won't :lol

[cjw]

I guess plan here is to pull for the Clippers and then hope W's finish off Houston in 5 at home. No way in hell Houston is winning two in GS, so no reason to delay the inevitable. Get a real opponent facing Curry-less GS.

He's always in charge. Steph is the best player on the Warriors but it's clear that Draymond is their leader.

[Killakobe81]

I know for some of you haters it's disappointing but as great as Curry he is he is a routine and rhythm player. He was effective but far from great before he got hurt in the last game.. My guess is he will need an additional 2 or 3 games to get close to where he was during his MVP season.
Clips could put a scare in in the Dubs if they can steal game 1 or 2 sans Curry which is possible.
My guess even if he returns in time for game 3 or 4 he wont be himself until Game 6 or 7...

And yes the CLips have problems of their own but they aint the Rockets There will be no 3-1 lead after 4 games if Curry misses most of those. but if Dubbs do survive even after a long series the rest Curry gets in the long run might be helpful vs. Spurs/Cavs/OKC

[DPG21920]

This is a big deal. The Clippers are a damn good team and playing well. If Curry is out vs LAC for 3 games, they could easily be down 3-0 or 2-1.

It's not insignificant by any stretch and it's why I don't get why Laker fans keep acting like it helps the Spurs. Spurs wouldn't play GS until the WCF and this helps LAC, not SA. If Curry is out, Spurs likely play a fully healthy and very good LAC team in the WCF. It's not a cakewalk.

If GS is in the WCF it means Curry is likely back (of course there is a small chance GS could beat LAC without Curry, just not likely).

[NameLess Scrub]

He says he's the emotional leader of the team.

Maybe he can lead the team into lots of techs if someone plays him as he plays them.

[AlexJones]

GSW could go down 2-0 and get Curry back by game 3 and still win that series.

[AlexJones]

Also, why ruin a great thing by getting Kevin Durant? Jesus, GS. Don't ruin a great thing!

[Chillen]

Great, if the Warriors get beat I'd prefer it to happen at full strength, no asterisk crap.

On this, we agree. Clips could pose a legit threat sans Curry.
Draymond wont be able to help on defense as much because he will have to defend Blake same with Bogut who has to watch jordan for lobs and offensive rebounds ...

If Curry plays at least 4 full games I think Dubs still win but the Clips will be no cakewalk.

MCL Sprain typically 2-4 weeks. But it's not like you're 100% after that time frame and an MCL is all about changing directions which is needed for Steph.

They cant win without some of them either and they could use the rest. Even if Curry misses the first 4 games of the 2nd round if they can get a split with him gone then they should win when he returns.

Lol, he wont be back anywhere near 100% until after the Clips series and he wont be back till game 5 at the earliest, book it. By that point they will likely be down 3-1.

Not at all, half joking, wouldn't be totally surprised, though..

[ambchang]

So Clippers going to be the first NBA team to blow a 3-0 lead.

[SpursFan86]

I think it's all going to depend on what level he's at when he returns. Even if he misses the first 4 games of the Clippers series and they're down 3-1, it wouldn't surprise me much if they come back and win 3 in a row (with 2 of those games being at home) as long as Steph is at or near 100%. However, if he comes back and is noticeably hindered by the injury, then I think GS is done.

That would be so mind-numbingly incredible if that happened. If Curry misses 4 games and they are down 3-1 and they win 3 straight? It would have to pretty much put Curry on the trajectory for greatest player of all time.

Understanding Steph Curry’s Grade 1 MCL Sprain

Posted on April 25, 2016 (http://instreetclothes.com/2016/04/25/1852/) by Jeff Stotts (http://instreetclothes.com/author/jeff-stotts/)
The 2016 NBA postseason took a dramatic turn Sunday evening when Warriors guard Stephen Curry suffered a right knee injury as the first half came to a close. He attempted to return to the start the third quarter but quickly retreated to the locker room before being ruled out for the game with a sprained knee.

The reigning MVP and heartbeat of a record-breaking Warriors team underwent a MRI on the injured joint Monday where it was determined he suffered a Grade 1 MCL sprain.


724679487632199680



The injury occurred after Curry appeared to slip on a wet spot left by Houston big man Donatas Motiejunas, who also slipped just seconds before Curry hit the ground. Curry’s left leg extended backward while his right knee bent forward. His right foot appeared to remain planted on the court and the resulting valgus force of the fall overloaded the inside aspect of his knee, the location of the medial collateral ligament (MCL).

The MCL, along with the ACL, PCL, and LCL, serves as a primary stabilizer of the knee. Given its location, the MCL is critical in lateral or side-to-side movement. Damage to the medial meniscus often accompanies a MCL sprain as fibers of the ligament adhere to the fibrocartilage disc. Fortunately Curry appears to have avoided any meniscus involvement.

http://instreetclothes.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/knee-300x292.jpg
When a ligament like the MCL is sprained, the injury is often assigned a grade based on the amount of associated damage. A minor or Grade 1 sprain is given when partial or micro tearing of the effected ligaments has occurred. A more moderate Grade 2 sprain is more commonly referred to as a partial tear and is more painful and limiting. Grade 2 injuries are often accompanied by a considerable amount of swelling and require rest and more intensive treatment. A Grade 3 sprain is relatively uncommon in sports but is a devastating injury. Grade 3 injuries result in a loss of function and mechanical stability and often require a long period of inactivity and in some cases surgery.

Fortunately for the Warriors, Curry’s mild MCL sprain can heal without surgical intervention. Instead conservative treatment and modalities will be used to address the associated symptoms and help stimulate the body’s natural healing process. The amount of time needed varies from person to person though the team has already determined he will sit for at least two weeks. When he does return expect Curry to wear a protective brace to help stabilize the area. Lateral movements, particularly on the defensive end, will be his biggest obstacle moving forward.

While Curry recovers, the inevitable questions regarding whether or not he should have been playing or if the ankle injury contributed to this latest injury will be asked. Determining a definitive answer is problematic but there is reason to believe his ankle was a non-factor in the knee injury. To start, Golden State’s medical team (http://instreetclothes.com/nba-injury-analysis/golden-state-warriors/)is one of the most proactive teams in the league, using various degrees of injury analytics and data to help shape their decisions regarding a player’s availability. Their partnership with Catapult Sports is well documented (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/writer/ken-berger/25203846/warriors-wearable-weapon-devices-to-monitor-players-while-on-the-court) and was considered a major advantage in last season’s run to the title. It’s hard to imagine a medical team risking the health of the team’s MVP with these valuable tools at their disposal.

Furthermore the injury itself was a bit of a fluke. Even if a limitation at the ankle created a small breakdown in the kinetic chain of his right lower extremity, it seems unlikely that Curry could have avoided slipping in the wet spot created by Motiejunas. Additionally, the side of the ankle that was involved in the fall was the side opposite Curry’s lateral ankle sprain.

The estimated recovery window guarantees Curry will miss a part of the second round but how many games that will be remains unknown. During the 2015-16 regular season at least 11 MCL sprains were publicly diagnosed. The list includes several notable point guards including Washington’s John Wall and Dallas’ Deron Williams. Both players sustained low-grade MCL sprains and missed minimal time. Williams sat out just one game while Wall played through the injury without missing any action. However these two appear to be exceptions as the average missed time for the other low-grade sprains was roughly 15 days. The numbers are in line with Golden State’s initial estimated timeline of two weeks.

Closing out the series against the Rockets becomes top priority. Any additional recovery time the team can buy themselves and Curry between now and Game 1 of the second round of the postseason is a much-needed luxury. Furthermore the Warriors will hope the Trail Blazers can extend their matchup with the Clippers to further delay the start of the next round.

While the Warriors may not be “the most healthy team” in league history as LeBron James suggested (http://www.cleveland.com/cavs/index.ssf/2015/11/lebron_james_cavaliers_3.html#incart_2box_sports) in November, they did catch a major break Sunday. By avoiding a catastrophic injury, it seems likely that Curry will be able to rejoin his Golden State teammates at some point this postseason and help them cap off a record breaking season with their second consecutive NBA title.

[Mugen]

dfens :lmao

[Mikeanaro]

That would be so mind-numbingly incredible if that happened. If Curry misses 4 games and they are down 3-1 and they win 3 straight? It would have to pretty much put Curry on the trajectory for greatest player of all time.
Why? because the Clits are the hardest team to beat ever?

[KL2]

Rushing him back could lead to a tear and affect his career, GS is in a tough spot, nothing they can do. Even if they do some how manage to make it to the wcf their players are going to be dead tired.

[DPG21920]

Why? because the Clits are the hardest team to beat ever?

Because despite posting probably the best individual season ever, he would be coming off a championship and breaking a regular season record no one thought would be breakable.

Then when you factor in what GS did and the fact they are down 3-1 without him, only to completely reverse the trend coming off of an injury to win the series, his impact would be so legendary that his career trajectory IMO is greatest ever if he keeps it up.

[D-Wade]

Why? because the Clits are the hardest team to beat ever?

Exactly. Harden, Coward and Josh Smith of all people did as much last year.

[dbreiden83080]

Clips with a huge shot here.. But they probably blow it anyway.

[Brazil]

So Clippers going to be the first NBA team to blow a 3-0 lead.

tbh... :lol

[024]

Warriors just have to keep the series against the Clippers close (very possible considering the Clippers' history and Warriors have HCA) and Curry may be able to return to smash them.

[Mikeanaro]

Because despite posting probably the best individual season ever, he would be coming off a championship and breaking a regular season record no one thought would be breakable.

That record was total BS, refs gave them all the tools to win if not they would have easily 7 more games on the losing side, Spurs should have been 1st but it doesnt matter now.
Besides the toughest conference (West) is now like Europe after WWII and the East is Chernobil add the refs to the mix and it is a big fiasco.
If you want to talk about things like the best player ever or at least the more valuable that would be Lebron, after leaving Miami they didnt even make it to the playoffs... in the east, and his new team went to the finals... actually he went 5 times in a row, I really doubt Curry could do the same with Utah or Sacramento.

[Robz4000]

You think if we tell Avante that Curry's a 12 year old Asian girl with a bad knee he'll go finish the job?

They can't afford to not play him, getting the best record ever but choking away the championship asterisks their record forever. And when I say that I mean every time they show the record it will be accompanied by "*did not win championship"

[Koolaid_Man]

OKC and the Spurs should go at least 7 games thats basically 2 weeks rights there....plenty of time for Steph to recover before he kicks Lebrons Ass

To be fair, the Heat had injuries last year, and Lebron moved to Cleveland along with Kevin Love looking to form another super team.

Maybe him moving out of Cleveland the first time is a better example.. Then again he left and the team went rebuilding. Miami on their side tried a re-tool, which is giving results this year even without Bosh.

Not taking anything from Lebron's impact. Just saying there were some other factors.

:lol it wasn't even Beverly that did it.

If you watch the replay, the knee took the entire stress of the slip because the ankle braces he wears have no give. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

An ankle sprain wouldve been better than a fucking MCL sprain, thats for damn sure

[MultiTroll]

Does this injury have anything to do with the earlier game with Houston where he began limping after he inbounds a pass?
Left the game...

Regardless, anyone on the Clipps who will sack up and give Curry some Beverly type D? Pussy Paul seems the type who would go cheapshot again. But I am not talking cheapshot but just some Beverly harassment to the Golden Child.

Yeah but Kevin Love in his first season was a disaster and wasnt playing during the playoffs, Irving left after game 1 of the Finals and Lebron was naked vs the GSW and they needed 6 games, it was a brickfest Kerr the monkey coach was exposed too.

[Arcadian]

This is nothing like Ibaka lol.

MCL Sprain typically 2-4 weeks. But it's not like you're 100% after that time frame and an MCL is all about changing directions which is needed for Steph.

They're fucked.

Yeah, people here are underestimating this injury. Just because it's a grade 1 sprain doesn't mean there is "no damage" - it just means the human body is usually capable of self-repairing the damage. But that takes time, and it's a gradual process.

I won't say they're fucked because it's still a great team without him. But it's a terribly untimely injury. I think Spurs fans have become so jaded and pessimistic over the years when it comes to luck/fortune that their assumption tends to be, "What's the worst outcome for the Spurs? That will probably happen."

In this case, my friends, luck is on our side.

This is a big deal. The Clippers are a damn good team and playing well. If Curry is out vs LAC for 3 games, they could easily be down 3-0 or 2-1.

The first 2 game will be at the Oracle & at best, the Clippers might split those games assuming Curry is inactive.


If Curry is out, Spurs likely play a fully healthy and very good LAC team in the WCF.

Blake has a torn quad which requires off-season surgery & ReDick has a bruised heel which requires rest. The Cripples WON'T be anywhere close of being "FULLY" healthy until the summer. Actually, Chris Paul might pick up an injury during the playoff...as usual.

Have Blake and Gaymond Green gone at it in previous games?

With our luck Houston will push the dubs to 7 and lose the series.

Warriors are fucked. Plain and Simple..

If the Rockets had balls they'd push this to 6-7 games. Maybe Steph being for sure done rest of the series maybe it has an emotional change on things for both teams...

Then you have the Clippers. They're hungry and have a chip on their shoulder and could care less about his knee. This is the worst matchup for the Warriors right now tbh. And best case scenario he comes back in this series..they will test the knee lol.

Spurs? The further this thing goes the harder it will be for teams to beat us. When Spurs are locked in its s different ball game. If we make it to the WCF it doesn't matter who we play we will win.

Oh and Cleveland.

Hey coach here is a personal theme song describing you I wrote just for you...:lol

I could while away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers,
Consulting with the rain;
And my head I'd be a scratchin'
While my thoughts are busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.
I'd unravel ev'ry riddle for my
Individdle
In trouble or in pain
With the thoughts that you'll be thinkin'
You could be another Lincoln
If you only had a brain...
I would not be just a muffin',
My head all full of stuffin',
My heart all full of pain;
And perhaps I'd deserve you and be
Even worthy even you
If I only had a brain.

they close out tomorrow he sits, rests & ready for 2nd round!

Would love to see datnigga Jamal Crawford get switched on his ass. Dance around, give that mutt a few crossovers. Stress that knees' lateral movement.

Yeah, I can dream...

I don't see them being down 3 to 0 to the Clippers with 2 home games
