The Cleveland Cavaliers are in Rio de Janeiro and apparently point guard Kyrie Irving is in a walking boot.
Despite a slew of Cleveland reporters on the scene as the team was leaving for a sight-seeing trip, ESPN.com’s Brian Windhorst is the one who tweeted that he “ran in to the Cavs” and saw the boot on Irving’s right foot.

FOX Sports Ohio’s Sam Amico reports that Irving tweaked his foot in practice on Tuesday and that all tests (MRI and X-ray) have provided negative results. The team has not commented on the matter.

Season over.
Thankfully we still have 88 games and 7 months to prepare for real basketball. Plenty of time to be cautious with Kyrie.
Would it be inhumane to freeze Kyrie in carbonite until at least the start of the regular season?
Mr. Glass.
Yep!! 0 – 82 record, here we come.

Where’s Shamrock and that sacrifice he was talking about?
Scary skills Shamstradamus has right? I saw a mention if Irving injuring his leg on SportsCenter’s graphic and said, “Uh-oh.” This sounds precautionary and like others have said if there was ever a “good time” for something like this it’s now with three weeks left before the season starts.
Ben Tate on line 2.

Is he watching one of his own movie?

His audition for Star Wars!
Google ‘Nic Cage watches Wicker Man’
Considering the PD has like 100 Cavs writers thats a little embarrassing.
Thank you for that.
99 more then the Indians but only 95 more then the Browns! They know where their proverbial bread is buttered!
