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!

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.

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.

Those fans don't wake up till afternoon and are usually very hungover.

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.

It's not that big of a deal.

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.

Westbrook is gonna go for 30 a night... shots, not points.
 
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.

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.

When do the Thunder play the Rockets? Beverly has to have that game marked.

I don't know how that happened. I screwed up somehow?

Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks.

And now I'm actually going to get to 100 posts pretty quick! I feel so much better being in triple digits.
Whoa... are you telling me you've never had a Spanish Coffee at Hubers?

Nope! I'm a rookie in soooo many ways....

Hubers is the oldest bar in Portland and has amazing turkey sandwiches. Classy place. You should try it sometime.

What type of Turkey? Like Thanksgiving thick chunk or thin sliced? What is it topped with? Sides?

Fuck, I'm hungry.
 
Re: Kevin Durant down for 6-8 weeks.

Another question I wonder now is if Westbrook is healthy enough to carry the load like he will have to do? This all could lead to the Thunder struggling this year and of course that could lead to Durant bolting at the end of the contract.
 
Added a poll. First time so lets see how it works. Really cool.
Please give me your opinion as I will try to make things better.

Well, either Westbrick is going to prove that he's a superstar, OR he's going to be another Stephon Marbury.

Who the hell cares about pre-season win totals. Pre-season isn't about winning and losing. Pre-Season doesn't mean squat about winning and losing records.
