Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. I wonder if they will be going small to start the season against us with a lineup of: Westbrook, Jackson, Lamb, Ibaka and Adams or if Perry Jones gets the nod at small forward.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. The "OT" forum where they talk about "ISIS", Linsay Lohan" "The ebola epidemic" and "Playoff baseball"? Sorry that's not where I would want something like this. But yes this could have been on some other persons thread. But I have not had much luck posting anything on anyone else's thread around here. At the time this seems pertinent. If the Blazers can get the lead in the Northwest division that will mean a huge lift in Playoff seeding.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. It is the Blazers first game and they have time to prep for how the Thunder will play. Getting the first one in OKC would be a big boost indeed!
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. No, no. Not the OT forum. I never go there. Some posters prefer that non-Blazers NBA news that is possibly interesting to posters here be prefaced by OT. It's an informal protocol. That's all. Yours is definitely a worthwhile topic and does potentially affect the Blazers. Like I said it's all good.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. No, they are saying you should put OT in the title of your thread. "OT - Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks" It's not about the Blazers but it's about basketball so you put it in the right place. Without the OT some people will read your thread title and think the Blazers just traded for an injured Durant, lol. It's not that big of a deal.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. There is no doubt some Blazer fan woke up this morning thinking it was 2007 and that our number 1 pick Kevin Durant was going to miss two months.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. I actually have that wrong. They play them here first and then again on December 23 there. This could or should be KD's approx return time. You would think he will be shooting for Christmas.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. Those fans don't wake up till afternoon and are usually very hungover.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. He will be back before Christmas, If two months is the max he will be in uniform by December 12th.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. Exactly. Ronnie Price getting signed by the Lakers is not worthy of a thread outside of Around the NBA. Durant getting injured is. A simple OT in the title is all that was missing. It will be interesting to see how the Thunder respond. Let's see if the self proclaimed best point guard in the league can produce without one of the best offensive weapons on the court having to be defended.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. As a Blazer fan who has lived thru horrific injury after horrific injury, I say this...... Oh well! Been there, done that. Never wish any injuries on any players, but if other teams have to deal with it like we have, oh well. Sent from my Baller-Ass 5.5" iPhone 6+......... FAMS
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. What is really interesting about this is that Westbrook hasnt exactly been healthy the last few years and if he is trying to carry load and prove that he is the man then he could be even more susceptible getting hurt again and that would be disastrous for them.
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks. When do the Thunder play the Rockets? Beverly has to have that game marked.
