Wait are you taking this opportunity to talk trash about Dame always trying to play?!? That's some bullshit. The dude just got injured and you want to make it about him making some kind of mistake because he's a true competitor. Fucking pathetic.

Let me ask you this, are you someone who supports resting players? If not this about as hypocritical as anything gets but even if you do like players that take a more pampered approach to when they are willing to play, this response is still pure bullshit.

Get better Dame.

I'm not trash talking anybody but you can vent all you want....I had a bad feeling about him playing in the Olympics and a bad feeling about him coming back for this series cold from blood clot watch...nothing hypocritical about having a gut feeling and the worst case scenario come true but you can stuff your personal attack on me where the sun don't shine...I'm a big Dame fan...I don't think he has managed his health well throughout his career....you think that's bashing? I'm not your topic here. What's hypocritical is bashing me over it. That's the response that's
pure bullshit. Get better Dame. I'm someone who supports resting players who are injured and not in game shape from recovery, sure. Especially if they are soon to bee 35 years old. Sucks for Dame and the Bucks.

Sucks for Dame to tear his Achilles but once again he's shown he lacks patience coming back from injuries and pushes his timelines ahead ...just like the Olympics, he should have sat this series out. Hopefully he turns the negative into a positive but the Bucks are toast now. Maybe we'll see him with a clipboard on the Blazers bench in a suit now.

If he tore his Achilles he might not come back. At least not at this level. It’s gonna be really hard.

Fair enough. We can definitely agree that we're sending our best to Dame. It's got to be a tough time for him.
 
Fuck man. Get better Dame. What a terrible month for him.

That first step jab explosiveness into a step back 3 may be gone. He unfortunately will be easier to guard, i believe.

Yeah if he comes back, which I think he will, I'd expect him to be a floor general setting up other players and a sniper when he's off the ball and that's about it. Who knows though, Dame thrives in adversity so maybe he'll surprise us all and come back as good as he's been the last couple of seasons.

Edit: That contract did just become one of the worst in the league though. With that player option season after next for more than $58M. Sheesh! No bueno.

Achilles is different. There’s only so much you can do.
 
Wes has had a career since his tear but been trade fodder pretty much..Rodney Hood lasted a season with the Clippers and one with the Bucks before hanging em up afteer his Achilles tear... Neither Wes of Rodney are number one options or pt guards so that's a tough position to play anyway. The good thing about Dame is if he's out of the game he has made the bag already..and still is on the books for his biggest paydays.
 
Hate to see Dame injured but does this make those picks look any better?

Kobe and KD came back so I think 90% Dame can make it back.
 
Bucks have to look to trade Giannis. It’s the only way for them out for them. Giannis is the only player that might net them a top pick so they can rebuild.

Dame will be 38 in 2029 so I don't think his status means anything for that pick. Probably won't be a Buck and with his injury might not be in the NBA
 
Well it's been confirmed as a left Achilles tear, apparently happened after going for a rebound.

Yeah I was kinda thinking about how his contract was gonna limit them in the coming years and where that leaves them in 2029. I think all or almost all of their picks have been traded?

Some of that is confusing with Wash involved. Are we actually getting a 1 from Mil. What are the odds on 2028 and 2029 of getting anything from them?

Playing soccer with kids is not the same as playing NBA basketball. I didn’t say he was incapable of walking. Just that he has a condition that prevents him from playing NBA basketball. It’s like when people got upset at Steve Nash playing basketball when he was supposed to be out hurt. He was like “there’s a difference between playing pick up ball with kids and chasing Steph Curry around the court for 2 hours.”

Someone could have bone cancer and still play soccer.
