Clippers: CP3 Injury thread.

[313]

2nd consecutive postseason hampered by injuries. You've got to think the league is considering letting these guys roid up to stay on the floor(if they aren't already, I.E. LeBron ). It's really hurting the product, and decreasing interest.

Not sure why you're laughing at me, I said we probably wouldn't even beat the Curry-less Warriors

Not laughing at u...the situation is funny with the Clips organization. They should have easily been a WCF team already

[J_Paco]

He's hurt. He's barely moving out there.

Quad is probably bothering him. He has improved his game a lot, but he's ed if he can't elevate.

I really think the Clippers are a cursed organization, man. They just have the worst possible luck ever and it is ing hilarious, man.

If CP3 is out for the playoffs.... So is Deandre tbh

[Kawhitstorm]

Portland would probably push dubs harders than clips without cp3

Cripples have the worst offense in the league when Cp3 is off the floor: (Sixers are the worst but they are a D-League team)

[Kawhitstorm]

Cole Aldrich is going to Whoo-Ride

[Kawhitstorm]

Tom Rivers and his son are gonna have to run the offense on their own now, tbh

They will have 2 games before they pack their bags for vacation.

[Kawhitstorm]

Blazers were the only team to beat the dubs that they may face. They're young and very fast. They got shooters who can hang with the gs back court as well as anyone in the league and they have decent depth. Not sure why everyone thinks they're such pushovers.

One thing the Blazers have going for them against the Duds is that they have mobile bigs (Plumblee/Aminu/Harkless) who can guard Draymond & despite being a ty defender in space, Lillard has size to guard Livingston until Curry returns (CJ can hide on Barnes).

Aminu would have to shoot lights-out like 2009 Ariza for them to make it a series.

[Mugen]

The Blazers are a joke team that got manhandled when the Clippers were actually healthy at the beginning of the series....

I'd be surprised if they pushed it past 5 games. Still would fare better than a CP3/Blake less Clipper team obviously.

Cripples beat the Rockets in Houston WITHOUT Chris Paul & beat them in Gm 3-4 w/ CP3 on minute limits then blew the series.

Bunch of pussies! only the Spurfan unafraid of healthy Dubs/clips are truly about this life. The rest of you under the right pressure ...would snitch about how Shaq paid hush money or would end up turning tricks as some pimps bottom if the pimp hand came way to strong.I wouldnt want any of you cravem simps in a foxhole with me.

Spurs are now the clear favorites ...but you want the pussy to roll over and spread eagle instead of working for it ...i hope you get nothing but blue balls.

Injuries are part of the game and often determine les, so it's stupid to want your team's opponent at full strength.

cute meltdown

cute meltdown

No meltdown i have no problems with spurs getting 6 or Cavs geeting 1 ...just despise sports cowardice and hypocrisy.

All season some spur fans ed about the Dubs luck last year and now spurs get memphis, kanter is hurt and dibs and clips are sans star PGs ...
Spurs may have win even if those teams were healthy ...but its pussy to want the easy way out.
Rack em and knock them es out.

I will not place a asterisk or use the injury card if spurs win it all ...just saying would love to see a fair fight you es would rather sweep the leg ..you cobra kai mother ers you ...

Yes I have never understood that crap when people say I want to face blah blah at full strength. The playoffs is like Darwinism only the strong survive. Also you will still not get respect by some opposing fans even if you beat their team at full strength because their fan base is going to be filled with haters. the media will find ways to still hate on you if your not a popular team.

Fractured 3rd Metatarsal.

I'm sure someone has said this, but it's a metacarpal. Metatarsals are in the foot.

Are there hand bone steroids?

Are there hand bone steroids?

steroids actually weaken your bone.

Growth hormone at this stage will probably just make them super thick, especially the jaw line like Dwade.

What's the last le team to not benefit greatly from an injury to an opponent? 2011-12 Heat?

Good info. Thanks. So there's no way steroids would prevent a metacarpal from breaking in any situation. :

Wasn't really talking about CP3's injury in particular, more so the overall durability of the league. Roids was the first PED that came to mind, but you know what I meant. The league wants to put the best product out there, and these injuries are costing them money.

[daslicer]

Yes they were the last team to not benefit from an opponent's injury. If you go back to 2013 I would say the injury Parker got in game 3 of the finals limited his effectiveness for the rest of that series. 2014 Ibacka injury was huge. 2015 Conley,Tony Allen,Irving, Love did help the Warriors. It gets interesting if you look at all the major injuries starting from 2000.
2000 Duncan out for the playoffs
2001 Derick Anderson injury
2002 David Robinson back injury, Peja had injury that caused him to miss the first 4 games of the WCF.
2003 Chris Webber tears ACL, Dirk gets major knee injury in WCF
2004 Karl Malone gets injured in the finals
2005 Joe Johnson misses the first two games of the WCF due to a face injury he suffered against the Mavs. Dwayne Wade also suffered a serious injury in game 5 of the ECF that allowed Detroit to get back in that series.
2006 No Amare for the season or the playoffs which effected the Suns against the mavs. Also Parker and Ginobili got dinged with injuries from Ron Artest in the Kings series which I felt helped out the Mavs tremendously.
2007 Larry Hughes playing in the finals with a messed up ankle.
2008 Ginobili played with broken ankle in WCF.
2009 Garnett out for playoffs
2010 Perkins knees get shattered in game 6
2011 Ginobili plays with a broken arm.
