2023-02-06 22:45:07 +0000 UTCIt is a 5D chess move with the upcoming rule change of allowing 2 basketballs in play at once.

2023-02-06 19:13:15 +0000 UTCWhile it's true that every team can shoot 3's now, I do recall seeing a stat that the Warrior's perimeter D was the worst in the league. Literally DEAD LAST. I don't know if that's still the case, but it's one of the major reasons for their struggles, it's why games are close even when we're not being turnover machines. We lost GP2, we lost Mike Brown, the vets are older and slower, we lack length/size, and there's a general lack of focus from everyone. All those factors together combine for teams just raining 3's on us at will. We rely on the "Clamp Bros" as Alch put it, but that's not enough, and frankly Wiggs has been a disappointment there too. We just lost too much defensive oomph. It's pretty obvious when you just compare last season's team to this one and just ask "what changed?"

2023-02-06 18:59:15 +0000 UTCOnly reason I don’t immediately say punt the season is the fact that half the west is around .500. That being said, let’s see what we can do with a lineup of heavy minutes for the young guys. Get Wiseman out there, run things through Kuminga, and let’s see what we’ve got for real

2023-02-06 15:09:31 +0000 UTCI think it's better to let some young guys go like Moody and Wise and concentrate on others who can actually succeed here like JK and PBJ because still, Wiggs, Poole, and Looney are pretty young so it's not like we will lose all of our players at once.

2023-02-06 08:17:44 +0000 UTCI agree with u. With his physical gifts, it's weird that he doesn't rebound more, the same with Wiggs. Wiggs was a monster on rebounds last play-off, but now it's gone for whatever reason. Kuminga also showed some promise in that Charlotte game when he was grabbing rebounds late in the game. So I have a couple of possible reasons. Obv, he guards perimeter players so he's usually far away from the basket, but even when he's under the basket since he's been guarding perimeter players he just loses focus and timing. Looney is always under the basket so he kind of gets into a rhythm. and Kuminga isn't also very tall (6.6) and doesn't have a huge wingspan (6.7), I mean he's explosive and athletic if you gave a little bit of space he can dunk on your head, but it's all with pace and acceleration so from a static situation he's not that great I can assume (he's still better than anybody else, but most 4 are taller than him with longer wigspan). I mean he must be a much better rebounder still and I think his best position would still be 3, not 4 and playing in front of guys with occasional post-ups, cuts, drives and corner 3. so if we play him at 3 we have 4 and 5 to rebound and can allow him to concentrate guys on the defence on the perimeter. He's still 20 and while he's athletic his body hasn't developed yet so he lacks upper body strength a little bit. I noticed that when Morris from Clippers could overpower him for the rebound and some other older and more experienced guys.
Ilfat
2023-02-06 07:56:59 +0000 UTCI feel like I’ve been saying this all season. We better our play by holding on to leads, executing late in game, better shot selection, take care of the ball, and we defend w/o fouling, we up there with the best of not the best. Add on the fact that we can potentially trade for an big that gives us size, rim protection, an scorer on the roll, and most importantly, he can be out there in late games. Who says no that we can ultimately win another chip n go b2b.

2023-02-06 06:42:25 +0000 UTCI guess they just shouldn’t even bother showing up to the rest of their games then /s

2023-02-06 06:39:43 +0000 UTCNah Coach Kerr is just sick and tired of having to deal w/ the family members of all those clipboards he destroyed. I imagine I would get mentally exhausted from having to deal w/ that kind of thing, too. (If you don’t get the “joke” don’t worry b/c I wasn’t joking about anything. I mean, every time you freak out while a camera is pointed at you it will go viral and you will be asked at least 17 billion annoying questions about it; don’t believe me? watch the film, “we need to talk about Kevin.”) [no comment as to weather that last part was a “joke”]
____
2023-02-06 06:38:21 +0000 UTCof course we do. this team can afford to play w/o the greatest shooter of all time (who happens to be the reigning Finals MVP for ppl who care about individual accolades & other superlative trophies). Kerr really needs to figure out what’s going on w/ this roster, and he can’t do that without being able to remove certain “constants” and checking each “variable” in the [metaphorical] equations – so to speak. In Kerr’s tenure as HC, we’ve had far worse [injury] luck + had way more chaotic seasons than this one, but still managed to “overachieve” etc. (ex: see last season for starters)
____
2023-02-06 06:34:15 +0000 UTCit’s almost like you’re just choosing not to see the reality of the situation right in front of you. like most of y’all, i’ve been a GSW fan my entire life…which means the majority of my life has only known the Warriors as the league’s doormat franchise. i get that we all can “take winning for granted” and everything, but IMO the GSW are basically the modern era version of those Duncan/Parker/Manu/Leonard era Spurs teams that won several championships (spanning 3 different decades, mind…). food for thought
____
2023-02-06 06:27:49 +0000 UTCBut why weren’t they already taking their games REALLY seriously? [rhetorical]
____
2023-02-06 06:23:37 +0000 UTCYou can't imagine they fully pack it in and go all young now. Even if Steph is out for 6 weeks, the warriors are still currently in the playoffs as it stands. It's a fucked scenario, but when has this organization ever waived a white flag this early?

You're one of the dumbest posters I've ever seen on here dude. You're the idiot who says Kerr doesn't want Wiseman to succeed because he loves Looney so much lmao, and Looney isn't that good lmao...fucking lunacy. And now you're saying Dray is about to put hands on Kerr lol. Kerr and Curry brought us a dynasty you imbecile, they made Mark Jackson look like the fraud he was. You don't know ball dude.

2023-02-06 04:36:46 +0000 UTCBro u already lost y are u still here lol, Wiseman was a team pick but little did they know Kerr would try to sabatoge him and the rest of the young guys including jk, he only played jk once he realized they were going to be the worse team in the league, stop trying to make it vets vs young guys, its everyone vs Kerr lol he been trash that's y dray be about to put hands on him

2023-02-06 03:39:13 +0000 UTCSmall part is his aggressiveness attacking the glass but mostly its because be is primarily guarding the best perimeter player, I hate how we nitpick young guys yet we have guys who disappoint on the glass alot like klay and wings, this seems to be a problem with Kerr and the fans...tough on the young guys but vets cans slide
k fish
2023-02-06 03:36:13 +0000 UTCFirst order of business is to get Jerome and Lamb on the roster. Who volunteers to tell Iguodala that he must retire? Kerr does look…..disengaged, but it’s hard to judge, he’s always been more stoic than most coaches. I spent 40 years watching the Warriors flounder, NEVER even making the playoffs, so I’m hoping they don’t trade away the youngsters who will make the Warriors relevant for years, PBJ, Wiseman, Moody, all useful for keeping the team in the playoffs. Throwing everything in for one last gasp…..ugh. Who thinks Kyrie can coexist with Jason Kidd? I don’t.
Jerry Heverly
2023-02-06 03:21:50 +0000 UTCI’d love to hear an explanation as to why Kuminga - for all his impressiveness - still comes up so short on rebounds. Angles? Spacing? Timing? Effort? Just curious what people are seeing. I keep forgetting to focus on that during the game.
Ejikeme Uzoigwe
2023-02-06 03:17:32 +0000 UTCArguably Kuminga & Moody we’re two development guys who got real minutes on a championship team. So Kerr def did his part for the two timelines. But five players was just too much.
Ejikeme Uzoigwe
2023-02-06 03:10:01 +0000 UTCLol dudes on here? Nobody has said anything to me on here except u because what I say is fact lol, nba history has nothing to do with this team, Kerr has always played favoritism but had ultra talent to overcome it, its not a secret, his own player javale Magee said Kerr wants to get rid of the center position, another guy he treated unfairly and almost lost a series because of it, Kerr helped make this roster lol, the players who were supposed to be stepping up been held back by Kerr on purpose......Kerr thinks steph and the vets could keep carrying him while he shits on the young talent but it backfired on him. Now he only has clowns like u still defending him, it's right in front of you, you're trying to blame guys who don't play, when Wiseman played since coming back from the g he looks more then serviceable, but small ball stevie won't allow those minutes for an actual big and thinks 3 jacking is better then an inside presence. This isn't new dummy, you're just late to the party just like jk hater. You can't evaluate talent or the game.....now magically jk is good lol you're sad bruh

Jerry Heverly
2023-02-06 03:05:01 +0000 UTCyes and Kerr doesn't want Wiseman to succeed because he loves Looney. lmao. It's not even about the young guys, it's about the roster construction you doofus. You can't develop 5-6 roster spots and expect to contend. This is what dudes on here have been trying to tell you but you still don't get it. It's simple shit, learn NBA history.

2023-02-06 02:57:39 +0000 UTCMoody has been given plenty of chances and has underperformed every single time. He HAS been trash this year, period. He simply can't guard his position right now. He NEVER overperforms given his chances, and gets outplayed by Lamb and the other guards. PBJ I love, but he's 19. I'm not willing to just give up on another year of Steph's prime (and Klay having a better year than last, and Draymond as well)...especially if this is their last year together, until it's totally clear they won't make it. I feel we owe it to the core, and the young guys will get plenty of run when the team totally sucks. For Moody, check out the video Alc did recently comparing him to Lamb.

2023-02-06 02:50:48 +0000 UTCI challenge anyone to name a good nba team who has had to develop this much young talent. It never works. Phil Jackson and Pop wouldn't even allow it. I remember that lebron team in LA that was stacked with great young talent (DLo, Ingram, Lonzo, Caruso, Randle, etc)..they didn't make the playoffs.

2023-02-06 02:40:31 +0000 UTCHe should not have closed that game. they needed rebounding and Kuminga was mistiming his rebounds. They went with DDV instead of Poole for defense, and brought in looney for rebounding (which won them the game). It was a great move, and the right move.

2023-02-06 02:37:35 +0000 UTCkeep suckling up to Lacob and his two timelines, I"m sure it'll work out for you. Wiseman will be GREAT!! LOL. There's a reason why these guys ride for each other, Kerr rides for the core and Myers rides for the core. You keep siding with the young bums and Lacob tho lmao. You really think the core wanted this to be a developmental year? Are you fucking blind dude? You'll have fun once Steph retires and you'll have plenty of young lotto picks to drool over. Your analysis always sucks and lacks nuance, because you aren't intelligent. Kuminga did suck, he sucked hard early in the season go look at his efficiency, Kerr reeled him in. Are you even watching now? Kuminga is taking much better shots and cutting at the right times. And you said Kerr doesn't want WISEMAN to succeed because he loves Looney?? lmao, retard shit. Is that why Kerr started him in his rookie year over Looney and he turned out to be the worst offensive player in the league? lmao, again costing them games when they probably could've avoided the play-in? yes dude Kerr is my daddy and he's sabotaged the season, he also has 9 rings genius and flipped us from a mediocre team with MJ to a dynasty. You obviously just started watching, because if you've been watching you'd know all the young players who have improved under Kerr. Your grammar sucks, your analysis sucks, and you're unintelligent. Keep blaming Kerr though, other dudes on here are trying to TEACH your young and dumb ass that no roster EVER has been successful with 5-6 developmental spots yet you just ignore it because you can't face reality. You're a joke dude...and again, your grammar sucks, you can't be past high school. You need to read more too, the stuff on Lacob is well known, Wiseman is a Lacob pick, not a Kerr or Myers pick.

2023-02-06 01:20:00 +0000 UTCLol you mad I been killing you all year bruh 🤣 you don't watch basketball you listen to talking heads, I can tell by you're two timeliness talk. Again you can't blame players who aren't playing dumbass, with the young guys this roster is still one of the most talented in the NBA and that's not debatable....but you don't watch basketball so you wouldn't know that. I can name you guys doing more with less.....pelicans got a bunch of young guys who are key contributors, kings have a rookie starting, nuggets have young guys playing.....etc..your counting the roster spots as if it's relevant especially when you got iggy sitting there....Kerr endorsed him, the starters along with poole jmg who Kerr wanted, ddv, kuminga, moody, Wiseman and since Kerr loves the lamb and ty are way more then enough. But when you're coach panics and benches guys because be sucks at his job that's when u lose....now you out here sucking off Kerr when it's clear he has been pathetic. Who says the vets and Myers are mad at lacob? I think Myers is pissed at kerr.....sitting his draft picks when they clearly can help. You trying to change the narrative because you're daddy Kerr is getting exposed lol if anything u and him look dumb for not playing the young guys more, Kerr is doing the worse coaching job I'm the nba

2023-02-06 01:01:08 +0000 UTCAlch, you preached and we saw how great kuminga was tonight. How come he wasn’t out there to close the game out and even play defense. I hope Poole realizes that once this curry era is over and he officially is handed the keys… it’ll be kuminga driving the car

Kerr hasn't developed anyone.....it took looney 5 years to be playable and even now he is a rebounder and screen setter, that's not development lol Poole didn't continue to play dummy, he was sent to the g league and sat behind Brad wanamker.....you remember the season kerr.cost us a playoff spot lol you're cooked bruh.....you been wrong about every basketball take you ever made....you're a Kerr fan boy who doesn't know the game.....you said jk was trash and moody was the most ready, and lamb is way better then both lol

2023-02-05 23:54:05 +0000 UTCExactly.. I’ve been arguing with people for thus exact reason.. curry, draymond, and klay aren’t necessarily the definition of health… imagine we traded all the young guys a few weeks ago.. now we’d be praying to get a gimpy steph out there
Offtopic K
2023-02-05 23:52:13 +0000 UTC100% agree with you Alch.. I may be late to the Kuminga train fully but I would start prepping Kuminga to be the 2nd option coming into next year.. if I were Kerr… Kuminga needs 25+ minutes regardless of mistakes.. and I’m giving Wiseman snd moody 15 minutes to try and figure out what I have and the best way to gameplan their playstyles… a positive is maybe we can win enough games to stay in the play in mark, give the core 5 some much needed rest, and develop the young players even further or we just play them out the rest of the year, sit steph out and come back next year with a much deeper.. hopefully more hungry team

2023-02-05 23:50:25 +0000 UTCJust took a look at Damion Lee's stats this year, he's having an amazing year. People talk about how we let go of GP2 and OPJ because of two timelines, but losing guys like Lee and JTA for two timelines was also devastating. Guys like that brought maximum effort, energy, and discipline every night and had great chemistry with the core. We essentially gave Lee away for Moody, and Lee is having a shooting season that Moody could only dream of....47% from 3! Two timelines fail again.....

I already told you stop speaking about a sport you don't understand.....u said jk sucked just a few months ago and defended Kerr for dnp him while the team fell down the gutter.

2023-02-05 22:50:48 +0000 UTCThis season is a wrappitty wrap even if Steph is only out a couple of weeks. It's clear as day that the consistent effort and focus as a team just isn't there. Time to really pivot to a post big 3 era. You don't trade them but the younger guys have to be the focus of minutes and development on the floor.
Alasdair Macdonald
2023-02-05 22:50:25 +0000 UTCyou shouldn't be worried about your future when you have a championship core. Look at what the Lakers are doing, they are still going after it with 38 year old Lebron. Winning rings is not easy.
A m a r Singg
2023-02-05 22:48:13 +0000 UTCBingo. I don't think there's ever been a championship team who had more than 1 developmental guy get significant minutes in their rotation. There's a reason why Phil Jackson NEVER played rookies unless he absolutely needed to (or they had crazy high iq like Luke Walton). Championship coaches know that young guys don't win rings, it just doesn't happen. 1-2 roster spots i can understand, but Kerr is dealing with 5-6 freaking developmental roster spots (more if you include the 2 ways). It's a ridiculous strategy that wasted another year of Steph's prime. Warriors fans should be pissed, but not at the coach...that's for sure...a lot of Warriors fans don't understand context though, it seems (Play Wiseman moaar!!! he's big!!! lol). One example would probably be Pop with Kawhi. But Pop reeled in Kawhi BIG TIME (much like kerr did with JK) to the point where Kawhi didn't want to play for him anymore. These noobs don't know history.

2023-02-05 22:44:13 +0000 UTCNaw.. Kerr has been asked to do something no other coach has done. He has been asked to compete for a championship while developing 5 young guys at the SAME TIME. Kerr wanted to keep veterans so they can keep competing. The owner wants his 2nd and 3rd year players to help compete for a championship. So since you are saying Kerr sabotaged the young guys.. name me a coach that was asked to develop 4 young guys.. while maintaining the core and also asked to win a championship IN THE SAME SEASON

2023-02-05 22:37:28 +0000 UTCIt's crazy that the starting 5 is STILL almost unbeatable. Best lineup in the league by far. Really shows how bad the depth and chemistry down the roster really is.

It was so bad they had to send him back to the g league. Did you even watch the beginning of the season? Kerr has done a great job developing Kuminga is well. dunno what you're talking about. That starting 5 is STILL the best lineup in the league....so you want to blame the starters and Kerr?? LMAO, they have the best lineup in the ENTIRE LEAGUE, that should tell you right away that their biggest issue is depth.

2023-02-05 22:35:23 +0000 UTCI’d trade Fitz to the Kings for Mark Jones every day. I’d throw in Bonte and Buike and Kerith too.

2023-02-05 22:33:57 +0000 UTCthey are still in the hunt. hold the fort as much as you can now. If they fail they can always play the young guys later.

2023-02-05 22:33:17 +0000 UTCI agree. Kerr should shorten the rotation and go all out to win during this stretch. don't listen to the fans who want to play the young bums. Play Kuminga and that's it. go for wins. If they fail now, they can always play the young bums to end the season. Or simply trade some of the young bums.

2023-02-05 22:25:16 +0000 UTCKerr wants Wise to succeed, he just isn't very good. Kerr has developed plenty of young players, and he's done a great job with Kuminga. Remember, Looney came into the league as a wing and Kerr developed him into a winning big. JMG is a big who he's playing, because he plays hard and is simply better than Wiseman at everything. Kuminga wasn't rebounding well, which is why he didn't play much in the 4th (he still played 20 minutes), and what won us the game in the end? the rebounding of Looney and Draymond. who would you even close with Kuminga?? that's a foolish statement. Kerr closed with DDV, Klay, Wiggins, looney, and Green....who do you play Kuminga for? very foolish. It was a good, balanced closing lineup.

2023-02-05 22:24:08 +0000 UTCwhen you have a championship core, you shouldn't be stuck "developing" guys. So yes, they should trade them. They SHOULD'VE traded them, then they would probably still have gp2. JK is developing because he has feel and instincts, the other two guys lack both of those qualities, especially Wiseman. Moody is just limited athletically; Moody has no place because he can't guard his position (guards/wings). Lamb is outplaying Moody, which is pretty sad.

2023-02-05 22:21:34 +0000 UTCwhat do you mean? they are playing Kuminga a good amount. you want to play Wiseman and Moody more? they both stink right now. Warriors are still in the playoff hunt. I'd play the best players until they are completely out of it.

2023-02-05 22:20:20 +0000 UTCI don't think you just give up on the season. Sure Steph will miss a lot of games but with the all-star break I think we can still win enough games to get the 6th seed at the end of the season baring any more injuries. And as long as we are in the playoffs and healthy, I still feel like we have a very good shot at making a run for it. Steph is still playing just as good as last year and Klay is playing better from game to game so what has changed to last year?
Nico Mauri
2023-02-05 22:20:09 +0000 UTCMaybe, but the team was dying with Wiseman though. the guy's on/off and +/- are horrendous. I can't see Wiseman having a game like JMG had last night, the rebounding, screening, the hands...Wiseman just doesn't have that. Wiseman just isn't very good, and he doesn't even play hard. I watched him in Santa Cruz, he sulks when things don't go his way, and he doesn't hustle. Maybe in a few years.
A m a r Singg
2023-02-05 22:19:40 +0000 UTCHe really needs to work on rebounding though if he wants to close. I think theycan get stops with him and Green at the 4/5, but they gotta be able to rebound.
A m a r Singg
2023-02-05 22:17:52 +0000 UTCThe Chef is going to be out for weeks, but i think this is a blessing in disguise, Steph wasn't gonna give 100% on D anyways, so he would just be a liability on defense, and its fair, can't expect that from him at this age in the regular season. so the team had to figure out how to play even when he doesn't play good, even better , when he is not playing. so this is our last chance to save this year and get a ring

2023-02-05 22:03:01 +0000 UTCNa Kerr just realized he isn't as smart as he thought....tried to sabatoge the young guys and still win but it backfired....now he is left looking dumb and needing the young guys especially kuminga and wise but he still will fight it till the end
k fish
2023-02-05 21:53:16 +0000 UTCGood breakdown alc but let's be real, Kerr isn't playing thru jk, more likely he plays thru Jerome lol Kerr despises the young guys, wouldn't even let jk finish this game. He doesn't want wise to have success because he loves looney....if he has 2 centers that deserve minutes it won't let he be small ball stevie

2023-02-05 21:49:44 +0000 UTCI think most would agree Draymond is a horrible 3 pt. shooter, and has been for his entire career. Draymond shoots 3's for his career at 32.6%, but his D, toughness, effort, passing, etc. make up for it, we know he can't shoot, the entire NBA knows this. Jordan Poole, our shooting guard who turns the ball over at league leading numbers especially for a guy who isn't passing into turnovers much, he just hands it over, for his career shoots 3's at 33.6%. Let that sink in. Dray 32.6%, Jordan 33.6%. And this year Draymond is outshooting Poole 33.3% to 32.4%. That's embarrassingly bad. At this point I don't think you can call Poole a "Shooting guard", I think he's played himself into the nickname "Turnover guard". Just try to drive with your first step and learn how to pass out of it.

2023-02-05 21:46:46 +0000 UTCTrade young guys or play them. It's such a weird situation because if we aren't playing them they're not getting reps and time they need and we don't trade them so at the end we just don't have enoug depth to help our core to win, but at the same time, it's not gonna help our future since they don't play = not getting any better and wasting their time and career and most importantly confidence.
Ilfat
2023-02-05 21:20:16 +0000 UTCIts becoming clear that resting guys is not reducing propability of injuries. Wiggins is taking rest games this year, and he has sat out more than he ever did before in his carreer. Curry is finding ways to get hurt that dont usually injure other players.. (IE- trying to strip a ball, falling on his butt while celebrating, and running along side someone while playing defense.) warriors just need to start playing their guys all the time
Adrian
2023-02-05 21:16:01 +0000 UTCEvery game that goes by makes me question the decision to not play the young guys more.
CNeal213
2023-02-05 21:15:09 +0000 UTCI think if we had given all the JMJ playing time to Wiseman, he would be better than him rn, but yeah, what happened that happened.
Ilfat
2023-02-05 21:14:44 +0000 UTCidk.. but lacobs gotta find a way to retain him long term
richard phan
2023-02-05 21:14:06 +0000 UTCYeah, Steph is out, but honestly if everybody steps up and play how they can play we can win games. I MEAN, Polle, Klay, Wiggs, Dray and Loon with Donte, Kuminga and JMR from the bench is not a bad team, but a big if is will they step up? That's another question. We need Wiggs to be Wiggs so badly rn. It can change things if he returns hif form from the beginning of the season and of course unleash Kuminga, he's already a very good player and honestly rn he's our third-best player after Dray and Steph. Poole, please, don't mess this up, play like you can and lock in!

2023-02-05 21:09:02 +0000 UTCKuminga will need to play-both for the team and for himself-during this Steph-less era. He's looking really good at just the right time. Jordan Poole-just be CAREFUL-you'll get a lot of time but please stop the stupid turnovers just a bit.
Paul Hanson
2023-02-05 21:06:47 +0000 UTCI like Doris burka’s point of saying that most of the mistakes are coming from the vets, maybe just a lack of motivation but i dont see them being contenders
Elias Candelaria
2023-02-05 21:03:04 +0000 UTCCuban probably thinks he can somehow 'handle' Kyrie and won't back down from a challenging talent. I think Cuban messed it up. Kyrie is an all time clown. Not as a player-he's incredible-but he always pulls his stuff at the worst possible times.
Paul Hanson
2023-02-05 21:02:04 +0000 UTCIve been noticing Kerr's lack of intensity too. I remember he used to slam clipboards lmao. I think Kerr has come to the realization that this season is more likely a wrap.. from a championship perspective.

2023-02-05 21:00:31 +0000 UTCWe have enough to win these upcoming games.
JW
2023-02-05 20:59:13 +0000 UTCSo yea its confirmed Steph is out multiple weeks. I dont know if we should tank and let the youngins play more.. or try to hold the fort until Steph returns. Honestly if we not making any big trade.. i honestly prefer to see Kuminga.. Wise.. and Moody and PBJ get some extended minutes and run. And try to build towards next season. I dont see a world in which Steph returns and things just magicly turn around. Dont forget Draymond been hobbling too. They should treat this Steph injury like they did his hand a couple seasons ago and get another good draft pick
Ballin Forever
2023-02-05 20:57:44 +0000 UTCyeah Iv never heard of this injury

Athletic Alchemy
2023-02-05 20:52:34 +0000 UTCSeems like both good and bad news. Good news is, ACL, PCL, MCL and meniscus all seem to be fine, as well as the muscles. Bad news is, it's such an odd injury to the connective tissue between both the bones in the lower leg. Not much you can do with rehab to hasten the process, will be a lot of waiting for it to heal while maintaining as much strength as he can
