Yea but he's not a player who relies on his athleticism. I think he'll be fine tbh. My 2 cents. GS'a trainer said he could be back sooner than 2 weeks.
Isn't he just going to be re-evaluated in a couple of weeks, though?

Spurs vs Blazers WCF series. Calling it now tbh.
Are you talking about Irving or Westbrook?
Damn.. Warriors get the WCF handed to them. Can't get any easier... They've had a lot of luck.
He relies on quick changes of direction with those handles of his. We'll see how his lateral movement is by the time he comes back.
We'll see..he looked really bad compared to his usual self in the 1st half of the previous game vs. Houston, tbh..he's a rhythm player, too..
Regardless, Spurs should be favored if Curry is 80% or less IMO, which appears to be the case..
Brings back memories of the '99 WCF against the blazers and the Memorial Day miricle![]()
Harlem, what's your thought's about our series with OKC? Outside of game three, I didn't think the Thunder were very impressive against a bad, unhealthy Mavs team. I think Spurs win in 5 tbh.
Charles Barkley looks like he's about to cry with Clipps going down.He looked giddy when Curry went down.![]()
OKC is looking pretty good right now.
Any jailblazers specialise in sweeping the leg?
Tired of the Dubs luck.
I'd be very surprised if the Spurs lose the series..I want to say 5, but I think SA will have a few games with costly offensive droughts(worried about game 1 after a series vs. Memphis, rust could be an issue)..
Warriors will beat Clippers in 5 now
Don't think the Clips are gonna make it to the next round, tbh.
Seriously? The way he changes direction? An MCL injury is a major problem for him.
He did a HUGE amount of specialized training because of the ankle problems he had, to strengthen his hips to take some of the load off his ankles. (His right ankle has been operated on twice.) He had already injured his right ankle, before this knee injury.
Look, I know a bit about sports injuries. He had problem trusting his ankle after all those sprains a few years ago. That's one of the things they had to get him over during all the specialized training. When he gets back on the court, he's going to have a of a time trusting his leg enough to cut hard - which is a major part of his game. (If he doesn't, he really is super-human.) This is very likely to be a big problem for him for the rest of the playoffs.
Crazy how quickly things can change due to injuries. Warriors would have been fighting for their lives in the 2nd round without Curry. Now they look to be fine since the Blazers and Paul-less (and a hobbled Griffin) Clippers will be easier opponents. That gives Curry enough time to return for the WCF, when the Warriors actually need him.

Marc Gasol thinks Pau should sign with the Spurs
By Diego Pergentili and J.R. Wilco on Apr 25, 2016, 6:19p
According to sources from around the league, it is very unlikely that Pau Gasol, who turns 36 in July, will re-sign his $7.7 million player option with theChicago Bulls after a tumultuous 2015-16 campaign. But there's a huge gap between not signing with his current team, and coming to San Antonio.
Unexpectedly bridging that gap is Pau's brother Marc Gasol, who let a few bombs drop in a conversation with Peter Edmeston, who covers the Grizzlies and has a radio show on WHBQ in Memphis:
With the San Antonio Spurs' Tim Duncan reaching the end of his career -- and possibly in the midst of his own farewell tour -- another unselfish, play-making seven footer could be welcome in San Antonio.
Gasol averaged 16.5 points and 11.0 rebounds for the Bulls last season. What stands out most on his stat line, is the 4.1 assists per game he contributed. San Antonio prides themselves on ball movement, and getting players to slash to the basket for high percentage shots. Gasol could help fill the void left by Tim Duncan, and help sustain the Spurs alongside Aldridge and Leonard for another 2-3 years.
If the Spurs pursue Gasol in free agency, this would make it two summers in a row where they went after a highly coveted free agent. Something unheard of, for a team that has consistently built through the draft over the past two decades of success.
Imagining a smooth transition after Duncan and Manu Ginobili retire was not something Spurs' fans were entirely sure about. Thanks to R.C. Buford and Gregg Popovich, it may very well happening.
omggggggggggggggggggggggggg
hahahahahahahahaha
everyone wants to come to us!~!~~!~~

what the ?????????????????????
lol
im beginning to be happy, yyyyyyyyyyyyiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiihhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Curry reeling, CPLTIR, and really the two manned OKC Thunder. I will take the Spurs chances all day. Lebron and his average Brady Bunch group.
Pressure?
The Spurs and myself will take this kind of pressure any playoff season. Any. Any any.
Do you recall what GS did when presented last year with this sort of pressure due to fortunate injuries...
They won a frrgn LE
Recall the Lakers against Boston game 7. One of the worst game 7s ever. No way the Lakers win that game and le if Perkins is playing game 7, no way. Gasol and Kobe punish the Celltics on the boards in a game of brickball. I mention this and the basketball world sees
a frggn LE
Pressure....
