    He has "fallen" into other people's legs when going for rebounds though.

    That is high risk to take away people's livelihoods. Ask Tom Gugliotta.

    Huge advantage if Lebron and the Cavs can close out Hawks in 4 tonight. The Cavs sorely need rest and now that we've forced at least game 5 they can get at least an extra day of rest and no additional travel. HUGE game for them that could help them in the next series.

    Read the weakness section -- this was the common perception about Harden at the time: http://www.nbadraft.net/players/james-harden

    I didn't see anything dirty at all with Deli on that play.

    Wow. That bad of an injury? Sucks the Rockets had to run into a team like the Warriors this season. They're literally the only thing standing between them and a title.

    Is Larry Hughes the equivalent of a Juwan Howard jersey?

    knew it was bad immediately when i saw it. ankle injuries that arent 'rolled' are generallly referred to as high ankle sprains and are much more serious as those ligaments wrap around and hold the tibia and fibia together

    source: grade 3 ruptures / syndesmosis

    This baffles me just like the Steph Curry move baffled me.
    You are up 3-0. I know you don't want to take things for granted, but you are pretty much in the finals now. Why risk worsening the injury?
