Dallas signs Terry Larrier

[UofCT]

Rehabbing with the team is a good sign? Right...?

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Hate to be a Debbie Downer but this is what happens when you’re 180 pounds competing in the NBA. He is not physical enough to play in the league.

Of course it would be this guy.

 

[Walker11]

Kevin Durant is one of the most skilled basketball players of all time. He can also play the 1 through 4 at 6’11. Carry on

Unless you just cannot communicate what you actually mean, your point seem to be the correlation between skinniness and tendency towards injury. Just a bad take for a wing.

 

[TRest]

Most knee injuries are non-contact. Size is irrelevant.

Hate to be a Debbie Downer but.. .

Jeopardy question:
"How does a person who doesn't hate to be a Debbie Downer start off a post?"

 

[JimHurley]

How about carry on with the hate on an alum who has had horrible luck with injuries?

Not hating. I wish terry luck. Just stating a fact. Scrawny guys have a hard time staying healthy

Oh sorry, our mass-collective bad for not getting your sympathy the first time around.

Still has absolutely nothing to do with ACLs.

Debbie does Dallas, not facts.

 

[mauconnfan]

Tough break for Larrier. Hope he fights back and gets to make some cash doing what he loves in Europe sometime soon.

 

[MadDogRevival]

OK folks, a pretty low-cost opportunity to take the high road. Let's do it...

+1

Ridiculous.

You know what's also a fact? Feline AIDS is the #1 killer of domestic cats.

 

[Huskybass]

Poor guy just cant stay healthy. Hoping for a good recovery and a nice career overseas.

This board can be too sensitive sometimes. You offer the slightest bit of criticism and all of a sudden you’re a hater. I root for any and all players who wore a UConn jersey

And I root for cats. It's a shame those delicate creatures are being ravaged by feline AIDS.

 

[Spokesbender]

This is extremely sad news. At this point I'd feel bad for him even if he'd played for Duke.

Every time anything happens with Terry, whether that be positive or negative, the reactions are overwhelmingly negative. It’s tiresome.

Sure, you can offer complaints, but they can't be nonsensical.

And save them for moments unlike these. Kicking a dog when it's down and that sort of thing.

 

[CL82]

Every time anything happens with Terry, whether that be positive or negative, posters reference feline AIDS. It’s tiresome.

Hmmm, never noticed that.

 

[Madmannsucks]

I get it, WE are unimpressed, but the people who get paid to make the decisions are giving him several looks. Hmmmm???

No.

This is basically the "You had one job..." meme, and you decided to catch a different wave.

Your second sentence above dispenses with the first person as though you're offering a universal truth, and the responses to your comment and your followup defenses have been uniformly unfavorable. It's time to own the "too sensitive" perspective for what it is: yours, not ours.

Thanks for uniting the rest of us in sympathy for Terry Larrier. You can start rooting at any time, and 'don't bury the lead.'

Can't be good for the groundwater.

Dallas Cut Larrier. Blew out his knee again. He is done. What a shame.

 

[superjohn]

Thanks for the 2 does not equal 3. An invite to a 22 man pro squad more than implies that he was a year away from sneaking into the first round...

No it doesn't.

 

[superjohn]

He obviously wasn't going to make the squad but this is terrible for Larrier. He could have made some big bucks in Europe, I really hope he can come back again and resume his career but the injuries are mounting up. Awful.

 

[Mokum]

Question: Since they cut him from the team, does this mean he is on his own as far as medical/ rehab costs? I hope not.

 

[Chief00]

Tough news. I wonder if he has some structural issue that increases reinjury possibility?
Realistically, if he’s not done now this will be his final shot at rehabbing and returning. Does anyone recall if he got this degree? With the transfer and injuries, he did spend some decent time in college, so hopefully he got it or came close.
At this point, it’s not just physical but psychological. Chief wishes him the best.
