JR Smith

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Curry has had 23 surgeries on his ankles, so not true, just lucky the last few years, especially since I saw Kyrie break Curry's ankles multiple times in the finals.

He isnt lucky , he is on some peds for sure.
 
George Karl used the word "posse" and this time at JR. Karl also went after Melo and Kenyon Martin and he crossed the line.
 
What we do with Shump depends on whether the team is thinking about trading him. I could see where we start Shump to showcase him as "starter level talent," but then pull LBJ quickly to play with Liggins and the bench unit.

I think trading Shump is very very unlikely now unless something comes around that we simply cannot say no to. But I highly doubt Shumpert is being shopped at all. He certainly is not going to be showcased. He's our best bench player, he's our only source of reliable and productive depth, he's having a career year, and he's young on a good contract. It would take a LOT to pry Shump away from the Cavs. Especially with JR's nagging injuries, and the lack of production from the Dunleavy/McRae group.
 
We can't trade Shump without getting a wing equal to or greater than Shump in return. He's a key piece for Cleveland's Golden State strategy.

We also need a second Shump. I'd take a second JR too. If someone could get to work on the science of 3D printing humans, please do so ASAP.
 
He must have torn a ligament. Talk about a fucking freak injury/ bad luck. Has GS even had anyone turn a fucking ankle yet?

Luckily we'll get him back in time for the playoffs.

But that news just really hurt Gilberts wallet and Cedi Osman's dream of playinng with LeBron.
 
I would be extremely disappointed if they traded Osman.. just saying but almost 4 months is just bizarre.
He barely even scraped Giannis, I have no idea how an athlete breaks his hand like that, my grandma wouldn't break it that easily and now you are telling a ligament is involved? that's really bad.

It takes JR time to get himself back into shape, we needed him strong and in shooting shape for the playoffs, and when I thought the day couldn't get any worse.

I would be shocked if Osman doesn't get traded now. He's our best asset and we have some real holes we need to address sooner now there than later.

The Cavs did a good job last year of getting injured guys to come back and peak at the right time. I have faith that we will be able to keep J.R engaged , and what better way to get into shape for the finals than a couple playoff series ?

As unfortunate as this news is, this still puts him back in March.

It stinks to lose JR, but it's a blessing in disguise.

Liggins is going to get burn, they are going to buy-out Mo, and we will add an additional wing scorer that we need with our minuscule assets that we have. Perhaps Gilbert was considering saving money and eating the TPE's, and now his hand is forced.

Come playoff time, we will be better for this. For 12 weeks, it sucks. At least it happened now and not March 1st.

My thoughts exactly.
 
I'm convinced the Warriors players are all using peds. They are friggin Lebron like now, they never get injured.
You have Draymond Green who was damn fat

He now kicks balls on a regular basis and has 24/7 roid rage. He also suddenly has crazy athleticism..

Then you have Stephen Curry that suddenly doesn't get injured and his ankles are like new. He also got bigger (yeah I know) but he was skinnier.

for 3 straight years they have had no real injury, none of their players is ever injured. I'm calling the damn FBI.

Atleast let Kyrie have some of this. (sorry for the off-topic)
