Just watching that clip, it feels like there's almost no way he doesn't have major damage to that knee.

Guess nobody can know how long that might be until he has further check ups?

No, that didn't look good at all.

We’re gonna need some serious load management next season.

Not much that load management would have done for this one.

Kawhi Leonard played 51 regular season games this year
Anthony Davis played 36
Jamal Murray played 48
Kyrie Irving played 54
Kevin Durant played 35
James Harden played 44

I think they have to look at the number of postseason games they're playing every year - four best-of-seven series is a whole lot of [high stress] minutes to be playing in addition to the regular season.

But that would bring in less money, so decreasing the number of postseason games doesn't seem very likely to happen.

At this rate, the NBA Finals will consist of a bunch of G-Leaguers playing each other.

As long as it’s our G leaguers, I’m down.

Maybe Stix can clear his name once and for all.

Injury to Giannis improves Suns' championship odds.

Game 6:

 -110 (50.0%) Suns
 -110 (50.0%) Clippers

Series:

 -550 (80.9%) Suns
 +400 (19.1%) Clippers

Championship:

 -115 (49.2%) Suns
 +225 (28.3%) Bucks
 +650 (12.3%) Clippers
 +800 (10.2%) Hawks

Should honestly boost hawks’ chances more…

The Hawks are up from 3.0 to 10.2.

I’d say that’s over 3 times more.

I think so too.

The Hawks were up big before he got hurt though.

This is a good team that's fun to watch and they seem to be better coached than the Bucks.

Suns/Hawks would be an enjoyable to watch Finals.

Championship:

 -115 (49.2%) Suns
 +225 (28.3%) Bucks
 +650 (12.3%) Clippers
 +800 (10.2%) Hawks

The Bucks' odds have continued to fall. Now:

 -130 (52.0%) Suns
 +325 (21.6%) Bucks
 +550 (14.1%) Hawks
 +650 (12.3%) Clippers

Suns over 50% for the first time.

I didn’t think they would give the Suns that much chance until they were up 3 games in the Finals.

I meant “even” more. The way I see it, Wormwood aside, Clippers still have a very low chance to get to the finals while the Hawks standing at 2-2 and a potential Giannis absence should have a higher chance to make it to the finals and therefore I thought their odds at the whole thing should’ve been higher than that of the Clippers.

The last iteration you posted reflects that tho.

That is amazingly lucky. I wonder how true that is. The headline says "no structural damage" but the article says no ligament damage. There could still be a major bone bruise and the capsule damage. Neither of those would let him come back this series (likely).
