My guess is KD will be out the rest of the series

    If the calf strain diagnosis is right, the bare minimum recovery time would be 7 days if it's a mild strain.

    Glad for his career it wasn't an achilles.

    Glad he’s okay.

    Not glad the Rockets blew their season-defining opportunity

    You think.

    Who knows. I would rather have a limpy KD play with him taking shots away from Steph though.

    not just season-defining, the entire regime-defining opportunity.

    Morey has spent the last 3 years obsessed with beating the Warriors, talking about beating the Warriors. Now they are about to lose to the Warriors without their best player. It's not only a failure, it's also an embarrassment.

    Will find out for sure tomorrow. He is getting an MRI done. It still does not look good because it was a non contact injury and it could be his Achilles, I hope not but looks like what happened to Cousins. Willl know for sure tomorrow.

    That’s 100% an Achilles tear.

    Why make a separate thread when nobody knows, seriously...it doesn't make a difference anyway.

    You put a 1 where that 0 should be, it’s a 0% chance of a tear

    The warriors are too thin and have been playing heavy minutes. Just like they came back from down 3-2 after CP3 went out, we will come back and win now that KD is out.

    If KD is out, we will win the series for sure.

    Of course they aren't. They lost the first quarter by 14 and won the third by the same. This series has been too close for anyone to count either team out. Especially a Rockets fan. Tough loss just like games 1 and 2. We can win this.

    If memory serves me correct we won game 5 last year with the expense of losing CP3. That was a momentum change and so will be this injury.

    If we lose while KD is out . I don't care that they only have to win one more game .

    I've been one of Moreys biggest supporters . He should be fired . MDA should be fired . We should go for a total rebuild .

    Yup. Warriors own us. Plain and simple. Legacy loss for Harden/CP3/MDA, and unforgivable if you want to win a ring.

    I work in theatre but I've never seen as many drama queens at work as I have on this site after a loss. SMH
