Gordon Hayward just fractured his ankle!

[The Fire]

I can't lie I didn't want him to have a good season and I've been griping about the bad karma Boston created with how they treated their main guys.. But I wouldn't wish a broken ankle on anyone.

I can't lie I was going through matchups and how we can beat them in my head when I first heard but when I saw the video I was like


At the end of the day this does change the landscape for them. Kyrie Now has to be the leader and the Two young wings also have their chance Now. All three can make or break their season and they are getting chances they never had before.

Wall vs Kyrie debate will escalate this season as well.

Another thing is I'm skeptical about Boston's depth.
Horford / baynes/ cus Morris the only exceptional bigs

Jaylen and tatum as wings

Kyrie, rozier and smart as the other perimeter players...

Am I missing anyone else? Boston gave away their depth and it may bite them really soon

Their perimeter shooting was really poor until Jaylen and kyrie got hot late in the game. They lost two great spot up shooters in Bradley and crowder

Boston gonna be real real real bad on D this year. Really active swingmen like Giannis gonna eat them alive.

 

[Listen]

That's all that needs to be said. I was sick all night after seeing that live.

Hayward is good and all but he really just provided scoring for them, if need be they can just sign some role players to help in that department in order to make up for that loss. But even with the Celtics seeing their second best player break his foot in a gruesome way in the first 6 minutes of the season demoralizing them they still almost beat the Cavs on the road, they were leading with it looking like they were about to win and only lost by 3 coming down to a last second shot.

So if they can manage to nearly do the Cavs on their home floor opening night while being distracted by a devastating injury then they can definitely beat the Cavs and anyone else in the East going forward once the shock wears off that he's out for the season and they're able to plan for how to play without him, they'll probably still be the 2 seed and compete for a Finals appearance if anything this merely shows that with Hayward they would've been the 1 seed and the favorites to get to the Finals.

Kyrie isn't regretting his decision though he wanted the challenge (Mamba mentality) and would also get even more props now likely winning MVP if he leads them to a top seed without Hayward.

And this loser Kairi getting all giddy over the injury hoping the Cs are done and arguing with people about the trade while screaming karma is deep in his feelings.

Nah its over fakkit. Enjoy being a 6-8 seed lol

Would say don't @ me, but You didn't have the balls to do it in the first place

 

[Kairi Irving]

They will not stop. We are still a top 3 team in the east.

Nah, only funny thing about it is the reality check y'all going to get, BOS = 6--7 seed now. Kyrie can't carry time all by himself.

Brad Stevens.

 

[Kairi Irving]

Brad Stevens.

He's no Pop. Who cares. You'll be a playoff team, but it's over this season. At least you got Kyrie and can start Tatum now... We'll see if Hayward is back to normal in 2018-19 and if he ain't it's completely over unless y'all get AD

 

[beenz]

I remember when I first saw KD's. I was like ok, cool, so they have a low top and a high top version.

Then when I saw him playing in them I was like

Same with the Kobe's. With Jordans, MJ NEVER EVER played games in the low top variants.

 

[MikelArteta]

Even if he comes back this year the thing he will have to get over is the mental

he wasnt gonna do much anyway.

kyrie gets what he wants. lets see what he does with it.

 

[Eastside Get The Money]

Even if he comes back this year the thing he will have to get over is the mental

That’s the hard part. Take the season off, let CLE lose in the finals, workout this summer, and use this time to count every single dollar of that $29M. No need to come back this year but he will be pressured to

 

[Kairi Irving]

, let CLE lose in the finals

 

[OneTimeforTheMind]

Welp Cavs vs Wizards now ECF

I knew the break wasn't that bad as Hayward didnt as much scream; fukk these athletes drink adrenaline shakes before games
