Good morning and welcome to the NBA Daily.

Coming up, the Warriors lost a game and may have lost Jimmy Butler for game three.

The Cavs and the Celtics have made it look easy so far.

And S and I talk about all the physicality in the playoffs good morning everybody good

morning s good morning kind of a a bit of a bummer last night uh warriors rockets uh the rockets

get to win which is you know it's not a bummer the series is tied up one game apiece, you know, going back to the bay.

But late in the first quarter, Jimmy Butler took a hard spill.

They diagnosed him in the back with a pelvic contusion and he missed the rest of the game.

S, is there any update on Jimmy Butler?

Yeah, so Anthony Slater mentioned that Jimmy's going to get a MRI tomorrow.

He's actually flying back tonight, which is just showing the level of urgency here.

The pelvic contusion, like you mentioned, assuming the x-rays were clean at that point.

Steve Kerr also said that Jimmy always feels fine.

So it's more about pain tolerance at this point and seeing if there's anything else.

But I mean, we'll see, man, Jimmy, pelvic contusions for the warriors.

Are they contagious?

Yeah.

What a strange thing.

Steph, comminga, and now Jimmy dealing with pelvic contusions, just please wear those pads,

you know?

I would call that. That's an effort injury, though. You know what I mean? Like this is, you know, he was going hard. I mean, that kind of stuff happens. It was a nasty fall. Yeah. And by the way, I've seen a lot of talk about like it was that intentional.

I've seen the replays.
