    Yeah Doc that's wishful thinking as it clearly ruptured and snapped upward in that gif.

    He was grabbing his Achilles like Kobe was in 2013.

    I would be shocked if that wasn't an achilles. Poor guy.

    Screw that player option, GS better give him 5 years at max.

    - Took discounts
    - Sacrificed on the court
    - THE reason they won last two rings
    - Played with “calf” strain (Achilles all along) and then tore it
    - Told he wasn’t needed, media questioned his injury

    Yea...

    Golden State owes him, but they won’t. New York will though. Perfect time to let him rehab, let RJ flourish, tank for top pick and then trade for disgruntled star when KD comes back.

    Def looks like achilles but he was able to put weight on it unlike Kobe so I dont know. Really hope its not though, I like KD.

    This will be interesting to watch as they appear to have both misdiagnosed him and rushed him back too soon.

    I mean: he shouldn't have played at all. However, after the first injury, was there an MRI done?

    That press conference was super strange to me. Meyers appeared to be emotional, but there were zero actual tears. It felt a lot like T.O. crying over Tony Romo, he even said it’s “unfair”, just felt..weird. Then Medina asks a question in a creepy voice, “erm, all do respect, why should we blame you?”. Huh? “I’m president of basketball”.

    I don’t think so on the MRI.

    Definitely shouldn’t have played.
