Utah versus Toronto is supposed to be on SportsNet Ontario... a cable station i've paid for.
and its not.

more pirated streams i guess.

about 10% of the time i end up watching pirated streams because tv service i'm paying for is not working.

Cousins is gone for the year. torn achilles tendon.
+ Show Spoiler +

by any means basketball did an excellent series on how to improve flexibility to minimize the chance of achilles tendon injuries.
i highly recommend it.

I watched only part of the game but missed that. They have to fix these internal player issues.

@JimmyJ

I hope Cousins has a good rehab and can get back to the state that he was playing. They probably should've rested him more especialy after his 47+ min game that he had where AD fouled in early OT. I had just read the espn article talking that Pelicans might have a good chance of taking out the Rockets in the playoffs if they meet cause of the Davis + Cousins duo vs the shot blocking of Houston. I wonder what moves the Pelicans will make before the trade deadline now.

oddly enough, when your muscles are very strong and not tired ... if an injury happens its usually a muscle pull rather than a tendon injury. tired//weak muscles really compromise your connective tissue.

there is some chick on instagram claiming Marcus Smart "pays all her bills" .. she is laughing at the guy and posting up "evidence" of all the stuff he buys her...
i wonder if its related to this...

Woke up at 4AM to see the last quarter of HOU/NO ... Rockets losing and Cousins injury. Bad day for me... bad day for Basketball. Really felt bad. Cousins plays hard and is a great guy. Obviously sucks for PO as well but man... that was sad

Yeah, and this is his offseason for his massive extension. At least boogies game is not built on explosiveness. However, can he handle losing some athletism? This injury is going to make signing him even riskier.


I think he will get max contract with a shorter duration maybe? I feel he can lose some athletism since he can still be very good in the post and didn't rely on blasting through or by the defence before. Jumping though might be critical since he is so big.

Boogie will still get the max. The issue is he wouldn't have loved up to his next contract regardless of injury.

How do you define not living up to max contract?

With how the nba is set up you can have 2-3 max per team, hes clearly in my top 75.


It really doesn't matter if you can pay people, a player is actually only worth something if they exceed the value of their contract, otherwise you are better off with all rookies (who almost all exceed the rookie contract). With guys like KD, Lebron, Steph, Harden, etc providing $20 million+ in value over their contract number you are losing if you have a guy making $25mil a year who is worth $25 mil. With his history of team weirdness, I'd do a 20-30% discount on his actual numbers when evaluating him.

Not really. Unless you have one of the players with a good contact it's better to keep your powder dry.

Watching the Cleveland Cavaliers implode (not really, just struggle in wild-card playoff race mediocrity) has got to be putting a smile on Kyrie Irving's face. Now it really seems like he was being a bit of a mercenary by switching teams when he did just to get that bigger paycheck, but I have to say that it was probably a smart business decision to make.

OKC's Roberson... ruptured patella tendon.
http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/22236287/andre-roberson-oklahoma-city-thunder-injures-left-leg-taken-court-stretcher

medical staffs are 5000X better than 40 years ago. players carefully stretch and warm up more thoroughly than 40 years ago. the players are stronger than ever with super advanced training regimens.

i think their muscles are a lot stronger while their connective tissues remain the same strength. the weakest link in the chain breaks.

a multi-billionaire blinked in a stare down with a player making crazy wild threats.
was the player crazy enough to make good on his crazy threats?
the multi-billionaire was too afraid to find out.
