Watching the replay as it happened, it seemed that his ankle had already turned inward a bit as his entire body weight came down on it, so the bone might have taken the brunt of it instead of the ligaments. Either way I'm sure it hurt like hell. As for Tatum? Shrug.
I'm sure it was painful but for him to return so soon after that? Seems like a semi-serious dramatic flop.
Consensus? My dude did you see how badly his ankle turned?
You are tripping. The moment right when you tun an ankle feels like the world is ending. Anyone who's done it badly has been there.
Smart looked fine the rest of the game but that didn't look like the kind of ankle turn that wasn't gonna hurt like hell today and tomorrow.
I'm late but thank you for defending Curry and breaking this down. Most everyone I knew hated Curry during that 2015-2019 run but I've grown more appreciative of him over time.
Those tweets were horrible. I'm guessing he'll be out of a job soon.
This superfan digging back through 11 years of tweets desperate to find dirt because the dude was "hating on Steph Curry" is pathetic as fuck.

I'm a self confessed Marcus Smart hater, but that ankle sprain looked legit

Kerr doesn't do shit huh? Did you watch the Mike Brown coached games?
Wouldn't be surprised if Smart is doubtful with that ankle injury.
And Tatum most likely got a stinger in his shoulder
I called Smart doing the Pierce, getting "hurt", leaving the game, and coming back triumphantly to charge the crowd up.
I wasn't expecting Tatum to do the same shit in the same game though. Lol
Did the Cs win when Pierce shit himself? Maybe Smart should have full sended. Lol
Go Heat!
yea I get on Kerr for bad decisions. like Recently Lee playing any minutes. And Kidd has been good these playoffs.
but Kerr has outcoached Kidd by a mile this series
we'll see what kidd does game 3
Yeah but Kerr has a history of questionable decisions. Look at the 2016 playoffs, resting the death lineup at weird times and watching the game fall away as Varejao played.
He's a bad gambler no doubt. But I was surprised he put in Moody in Game 2 who played decent, and hope he realizes Lee is a detriment right now.
I'll of course give both Smart and Tatum the benefit of the doubt on the injuries, but it was insane to see two instances of guys go down and stay down like they were going to be out for the next 12 months type injury and then both are back in the game 5 minutes later.

About Kerr, obviously a good coach, and his Xs and Os on offense and defense in the first two games of the conference finals compared to Mike Brown's management of the semifinals games he coached has been night and day.
He does get stuck with some guys though, his continued faith in DLee over Moody as the last guard in the rotation with GP2/Iggy out has been insane (as we have endlessly complained about in his thread lol).
Wait so people are saying Smart's ankle injury was another flop dramatics attempt ?? People cant be serious..i rolled my ankle playing ball and ended up fracturing it and breaking my foot..at the moment, I just taped it up and came back within 15min..the next morning though..wheewwww
Good for Juwan. The league ignored him for years. Don't take the first thing offered(Although he would've done a great job there).
Trae has the right, but not the standing to comment on Smart's deal. I mean...Trae?
Unless Ballsack Sports hacked his Twitter.

It's way more that a man be a forever loser to recruit his own sons then abandon the position for supposedly greener pastures.
Coaching LeBron James. Appeal acquired lmao.
I guarantee if his sons weren't involved he'd at least have taken the interview.
Who in the Heat hurt you this bad? I know you're a Butler hater so you probably are a Wolves or Sixers fan I dunno but just give the Heat some fucking credit damn
I feel that Era posters don't know how to just take the fucking L and move on and not be salty about it
If you're getting pissy then walk away and don't post I don't think it's that difficult
👌
The funny thing is that person never responded to this. The Steph hate is never based in reality and instead based on media narratives 🤣
Mavs fan actually. And that's what I did? I got off not long after that. Too many beers too late on a Saturday night.
Apologies.
Yea I'm a little irate too not at you but in general this current Heat team doesn't get the respect that they deserve this season (1 in the East, beating the Celtics yesterday while their best player was out and the Celtics went on a surge)
I get that the superstar narrative is still something that people think about (Oh you have to have an elite superstar to win and Jimmy is not a superstar) but you can't deny this team deserves to be here
I don't think there's much appeal to coaching 37 year old LeBron and 30 year old Anthony Davis in LA.
Absurd amount of pressure due to history, but there's basically no chance these guys can make it through a postseason healthy at this point so you're going to get killed by the media even if you did a good job coaching.
Luke Walton was able to get them to a 39-4 record the time he took over for Kerr. Despite my comment I'm not saying Kerr is just a horrible coach, but let's not act like he is Phil Jackson or Pop out there.
They do. They are a solid team. My problem is that I despise the warriors with the burning fury of a thousand suns. Only 1 of 4 professional sports teams I feel that way about. And despite the Heat being such a solid team I don't think they can beat that warriors team. And I would rather see the entire NBA go under financially than have to see the warriors win another championship.
So my ideal matchups are Mavs vs Heat (Jimmy vs Luka would be sweet) or Warriors vs Celtics.
I love Smart. But I didn't realize he's a flopper until recently when someone on this very forum pointed it out. Now I question everything. Flop or serious injury? He went to the locker room barely walking and within 10-15 minutes was hobbling back out and played the rest of the game zero limping.
Lol I responded right under your post, and you quoted me. We don't gotta lie out here.
The playoffs have people (myself included) in their feelings lol
Been awhile since that was the case for me because the playoffs were pretty boring in recent years.

As if Phil and Pop didn't also coach squads full of all-time legends lmfao
