Load. Management. Try to keep up.

load management is not sitting out 25-30 games in a row.

thats being a coward.

So how come TT missed close to half of the season with a sprain. And last I checked, you were applauding the Cavs for sitting him out.

lol...please do not embarass yourself by trying to call out tristan thompson's injury history. He is one of the few true iron men in the league that will play if it is at all possible. You have to look no further than his injury history in his career and how he has played through injuries that most plyers would take weeks off to heal.

A 6'9" big man continually jumping up and down on an ankle can without a doubt drag out. While I am sure they did not rush him back to even suggest that Tristan Thompson would sit out games when he is fully healthy is pure idiocy. He hasa work ethic and responsbility to his teammates that would never allow him to do that.


If the reports are true- and that Curry has to take 3 months instead of the typical 6 weeks for his hand injuries- hey- whatever. But if he sits out for months on end and misses the entire NBA season with a broke hand he will humiliate himself.

and as i said- i dont even think the NBA would allow a perfectly healthy player to sit out for 25-30 games in a row. The NBA can put up with injury maintenance but they are not going to put up with pure cowardice.

He had surgery on his hand, you dumbass.

Yet you were praising the Cavs for sitting out players like Love and TT to tank. What's the difference?

 

[thunderc]

Now playing on OKC, Mike Muscala in White Men REALLY Cant Jump.

 

[WiggyRuss]

I mean the team couldnt even have the thinly disguised cover of- "well he is sitll rehabbing and it was major surgery" like Porzingis who suffered a major soft tissue injury that would have scar tissue.

A 7'3" big man who a knee injury- even a MINOR knee injuiry is a very serious thing. It will never be the same as it was. NEver- for the rest of his career he will always deal with lingering issues from major surgery.


a broken hand? lol. I mean, GMAFB......when it doesnt require surgery its a 2-3 week thing. when it DOES require surgery its usually a 6 week thing. Under the WORST circumstances its a 3 month thing.

If 4-5 months from now he is complaining about a broke hand they should have just cut his balls off too when he was under anesthesia.

I would never praise any team for sitting out guys that are perfectly healthy. If they arent 100%? --- then take your time if the situation allows.

but to sit out guys for weeks on end that are perfectly healthy is just plain cowardice.

i didnt even get on LeBron too bad last year- becuasse its clear he was not 100% when he came back.

if you arent 100% and try and play through something andi ts just not working- then thats totally understandble

 

[WiggyRuss]

just please

one person say that it is perfectly fine to sit out a healthy player for 25-30 games in a row because the team is bad

just one person on this forum tell me they think that is acceptable.

One person tell me they think its fine to sit out a player for over a third of the season because the team is bad even though the player is perfectly healthy.

Lavine is a number 3-4 pretending to be a number 1. Garpax rebuild number 3-5 (can’t remember) is another failure

 

[WiggyRuss]

"Standing at 7’3″, Porzingis is in a different situation than most when it comes to recovering from a knee injury. He has longer limbs than a vast majority of players in NBA history, and thus lands differently than most when coming down from a vertical leap.

As a rim-protecting big man who plays above the rim on offense, as well, that truth has led many to ponder if he’ll be able to remain healthy moving forward."

hes another empty calories guy.

can put up stats but they just rarely translate to wins.

Sources: Waiters ate edible, had panic attack

lol

still defending Waiters? @bksballer89

gotta chalk that one up at this point. It was a valiant effort but at this point- gotta swallow the pride o nthat one.

 

[msgkings322]

Approve of a healthy player sitting out 25 plus games in a row because his team sucks?


That’s cowardice

I keep giving you a chance to shed some of your clown rep and you keep passing it up. Guess you aren't so smart after all.

This is old news.

Not defending him but as i said last week, i see ways he can help this roster but his days seem to be over here but had he avoided the 2 silly things he did ik the last month, had a clear role to help us out

 

[bksballer89]

Those edibles be hitting

You are really upset about this.

Also, it hasn't even happened yet. He's probably gonna play, limited minutes and load managed games. So you can stop crying now

You keep using that word, what is he supposedly afraid of?

 

[YourFriendGannon]

Alec Burks might be able to fetch a mid round first at the deadline if he stays healthy. What a fortuitous find for the Warriors.
