I told my buddy last week that the Haliburton calf situation reminded me of KD in the 2019 Finals. And that I hoped that just because he probably had an injection that dulled the discomfort, that doesn’t mean those fibers aren’t still compromised and in jeopardy.

Same sequence of events here — calf strain that wouldn’t go away, and then snap.

That was the danger and Tyrese knew it and assumed the risk. A lot of respect for that, but man. What a price to pay. The difference is that KD blamed everyone but himself, Haliburton won’t.

A silver lining in a bleak situation for Haliburton is his game isn’t predicated on explosiveness, so hopefully he can have a similarly impressive comeback as KD.
 
Well that sucked. Dud ending to an otherwise great series and playoffs

Feel horrible for Hali. Can't imagine going out that way amid a historic playoff run

Congrats to OKC though. Happy to see them get one
 
Domino injury impact (Haliburton and Tatum) let alone aging Lebron, Curry, Harden - All NBA 3rd team spots open potentially enabling more/different supermax contracts - perhaps Banchero or Maxey? Wemby, if healthy, as DPOY some time soon seems all but certain.
