    Why should he play and potentially F Off probably near a quarter or a billion dollars?

    If he joined Harden it’d feel like the first time.

    Houston would be " A long long way from home" for Durant.

    Meh. He'll get the max even if it's an achilles.

    I think he's just not healthy and his PR team made a stupid decision to hide that it's a calf tear.

    Did he just tear his achilles trying to play through injury?

    I think that Fbomb he yelled as they were helping him off the court should tell you all you need.

    Pretty stupid to leave him in for normal minutes. That quick boost they got to start the game was big but now his Achilles is probably even more ****ed.

    Totally possible he just aggravated whatever injury he had before. Let’s hope.

    I told ya.. no way did he have a calf muscle.. dudes Achilles was fcked from the rockets game.. risked injury for what? Another ring. Sure that would be worth it to some. But for him, having elite years of play left? bad choice. IMO

    I'm really curious to know what just happened -- that doesn't look good.

    Oh he definitely just ****ed up that Achilles

    That’s all he was touching when he went down. Couldn’t even pretend like it was his calf

    I guess an Achilles strain could be considered a calf injury. In Hockey speak "lower leg injury".
