Probably. He’s listed on the injury report but he’s going to play tonight.

Watching Lakers Suns while working out and it appears that AD is given free throws every 80 or so seconds regardless of what's going on in the game. Meanwhile the entire Lakers defense body slams Ayton ever time he attacks the rim and he apparently still has zero (0) free throws this entire series.

Chris Paul being crippled pretty much dooms this Suns team, he's worse than a backup player at this point and they're still playing him. He may as well have one hand ties behind his back.

yes his shoulder is completely hosed, he should just get the operation now as even if he sat for a week and they somehow won the series he'd be in the same exact position. it's one of those injuries where unless you get it surgically repaired it's waaaaaaaaaay more likely to reoccur, and even with the operation it's iffy

Chris Paul actually kind of sucks when you think about how he practically never helps his teams in the playoffs. if he could stay healthy he'd be a top ~ten player all time even without winning a ring

Dude went vegan to reduce tissue inflammation and was healthy as a horse all year, and he gets knocked out by something completely dumb and random basically immediately. Such a bummer.

it's a stinger, there's nothing you can do about it. carson palmer had it in like 2014 and it took 3 weeks for the nerve to come back to life

quote:

TEMPE, Ariz. -- Arizona Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer is trying anything and everything to awaken the sleeping nerve in his right throwing shoulder.

Palmer has already tried electrical stimulation therapy, ice, massage, acupuncture, dry needling and art machines as healing aids. The most extreme measure, he said, was electrical shock therapy that made Palmer jump with every volt.

None of it has worked, but Palmer and coach Bruce Arians said they see progress every day.

to give you an idea of the tools that a billion dollar team has at its disposal for dealing with this kind of injury

I read that it was a partial dislocation, idk if it's the same thing as a stinger

Missed the game but apparently the blazers lost. I’m assuming they got jobbed by the refs as that’s the only explanation that fits both the facts and my emotions, which are equally real.

Austin Rivers looked unstoppable when I tuned in for the fourth quarter so it was probably pretty funny overall.

he almost beat harden's rockets last year with a team of bench players on okc, and he beat the defending champ spurs singlehandedly with the clippers. he also probably would have won a ring or two with houston if the dynasty warriors weren't in the league

heat didn’t show up and are hobbled by one way players . bam is a fraud

suns lost one of the mvp Canidates to injury and strangely constructed a team with only one center who isn’t that good at defense . I pointed out they needed more and better centers forever

blazers missed a lot of shots and also only have one center . I don’t know why teams in the west don’t have more centers it’s inexplicable .

I have to admit jokic is pretty good .
