I dont know why this is unreasonable, except maybe Schroeder is actually faster than Teague

While there is a huge speed difference. Schroeder seems more likely to settle for a jumpshot if given the space. I will take that all day.

No one knows what you're talking about. He looked like an AARP member in the game in which he scored 25. He couldn't move then either.

He moved acceptably in the first two games against Chicago where he scored 30 and 21. He had the injuries then.

You got a thing for Kyrie? It's not hard to grasp how someone can criticize a player and then later on praise the same player....

My 'thing' for Kyrie is that he's a great player who's been treated like shit for years on this board, even to the point of folks seriously claiming hereabouts that Dion Waiters was ACTUALLY A BETTER PLAYER.

You guys can feel free to pretend otherwise, but Ky has been your whipping boy for almost all of his other 3 years.

Bro, I think where you are losing folks is that you are forgetting that there have been numerous instances where he has re-injured himself. When he stepped on Tristan's foot, things got remarkably worse, and these injuries are having a compound effect all over his body.

I don't even disagree with you, but, how would you know this considering your join date is Mar 2015? Is this an alt account for a long-time poster?

I briefly joined some years ago, and decided I needed to self-ban so that my head wouldn't assplode.

Once Jon came with his 'rich man's Boobie,' I knew it was time to run away.

I decided to just not re-open an account and give in to the flamebait for the years thereafter, but chose to post again now for what I knew would be a great playoff run.

By re-injured do you mean the pain got worse or the injuries actually worsened? If it's the former, then I see no reason why we can't have the Kyrie of those first two Chicago games. If it's the latter, then we have a serious problem because the next step is a complete tendon tear.
 
While Kyrie is supposed to be getting a MRI , I think I would suggest some posters in here need one too.
 
They always talk about luck being part of championship run, part of that luck is being healthy at the right time. For us - it's just not looking to great in that regard. Whereas the Warriors... look to be in prime shape. We'll see how everything shapes up, but it's going to be a tough, tough road for us overall.

I've followed this board more than long enough.

I know the feculence that was thrown his way going back to before he was even drafted.

No idea how some of you post positively about him given what you've said in the last few years.

I'd suggest maybe not taking what some people said about Kyrie at some point quite so injuriously. It almost sounds personal.
Rest assured, Kyrie doesn't even know this place exists; he's not worried about how he's been treated here. It's okay.
 
If the MRI turns out well then it may give him the confidence to play.

Seems like he himself feels like the injury has become more dangerous since re-aggravation and he is concerned that playing could have lasting effects.

But we are so close to a finals he should put himself out there if he possibly can.

You mean Cavs players don't compulsively reload this page to memorize what ButtwipeCavsFan37 said about them in 2013 on page 339 of their thread? I had been assuming they did...that's why it was so important to cuss out anyone who said anything I disagreed with about any player.

there are many, many levels of injury between completely healthy and a complete tendon tear.
