That was fricked up seeing both KD and Klay’s tendons pop. You didn’t need an MRI to confirm either one of those if you were watching. That was terrible.

I don’t like Golden State but ugh at Canadians winning in basketball

Why in the wide world of frick would any team sign either of these players to a 1 year deal? They wouldn't. Teams would still sign them to max deals, but not 1 year deals. That wouldn't really make sense.

You gotta be kidding me, I am disgusted. I always want the opponent at their best, even if it means my team loses. These people who will take the win anyway they can get it reminds me of chubby chasers who can do nO better.

If Paul stays, Houston absolutely HAS to take the west next season. Turn in your jersey if not.

Houston was horrible without their defensive “coordinator” last year and he got fired after this season. They won’t be shite next season.

Maybe they’ll end up top 4 or 5 in the West but will won nothing of value in the end.

Any chance of Klay being back for All Star break in February? That would be 8 months of rehab

Thats a best case scenario. Don't forget Klay was playing with a hurt hamstring too.

For now I will say no playoffs for GSw next year. Of course depending on who they sign. unless they make major splash, nope. We know Steph can’t play but 65 max. And this roster with no Steph would win 1 in 20 games at most.

I think their best course of action is to let KD go get his money elsewhere, resign Klay and wait for him to return, and use the KD money to be a player in FA. They need more scoring options.

So he comes out to shoot the FT's, then sprints back to the locker room. I was positive he was going to get a quick treatment and be back out. That's just rough.

I would think. My kid tore her acl playing volleyball and they said 7 to 9 months adnd she is already ahead of schedule.

And Klay will get the best of the best training 24/7

It would be foolish to underestimate the Warriors next year.

Yeah Klay will be fine by 2020 I’m guessing

Probably returns for Christmas Day game

ACL injuries aren’t what they used to be, thankfully.

For an ACL? I haven't seen a case where a pro athlete is game ready in 4 months.

You want to be careful coming back from that, though. I tore my ACL, never had surgery (was advised to just do rehab), and the biggest thing that suffered with me was change of direction motions. I can run just fine, but if I try to play basketball and make any quick turns, that support for the knee just isn't there. Obviously Klay will have world class surgery and rehab, but considering how much those guys run the floor, I'd make 100% sure he was healthy before running him back out there.
