Mavs 9 Time All Star Guard Kyrie Irving out the remainder of the season after he tore his ACL. Was playing 40 Minutes a night since Luka trade.

What does his minutes have to do with anything?
Probably overworking ligaments with insufficient recovery when you’re that quick and move so fast at that size.

Just a guess though. But probably isn’t the only factor, not seldom it’s a regression with many variables

In a best case scenario Kyrie could come back in January or December. Players have come back from ACL tears in 9 to 10 months. Just wishing the best for the brother cause he is and has been a baller despite the weirdness.

Turning 33 this month. Hope he gets back but this is kinda tough.
Yeah.
:mjcry:
Historically, small guards don’t last. Stockton and Paul are outliers. I guess Conley and Lowry are in that group as well. But, 31-33 begins the fall from all star to finding yourself out the league.
:francis:
Maybe it’s just the 80’s and 90’s guards. Either way, I hope he as a full recovery. He is different and I appreciate him being himself.
:salute:

They had the next 10 years set with Luka but now it's time to blow it all up and look for the next 'Luka' :skip:

This is what a poorly run organization looks like.
Poorly run is painting a pretty picture lol. If there's one thing poorly ran orgs know how to do it's not rock the boat when they get money coming in

That is a franchise killing trade and maybe that's what the new owner deep down wants, since she's throwing weight around Dallas to get her casino pushed through and making threats. She just made it 100x easier to relocate since the Mavs arena is empty now

We'll never know the full reasons but I don't believe they were concerned about Luka's health long term and sat there and decided Anthony Davis 7 years older is the answer. Then the trade causes a ripple effect and Kyrie who's 33 and injury prone gets overused and blows his knee out in a contract year. Stench is still in the air I just don't know what it smells like. Mavs will be in relocation talks by 2030

I was listening to Dallas sports radio on the way home and from how they were talking the fan base has completely turned on the franchise. If they wanted to make the franchise toxic to the locals so they can relocate then they're off to a fantastic start.

Someone on here mentioned Ky getting injured due to the minutes. The post was in the last week or so too

Hate seeing shyt like this happen. Especially to one of the truly skilled players still in the league.
