Guest Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 20 minutes ago, Paperclyp said: But again that doesn’t answer my question because the location is not relevant to the severity in this case. So i guess your answer assumes that it does, in which case you’re just not correct. I’m not trying to get you with that statement or anything - it’s just a statement of fact. Location without context of severity means nothing (on the same muscular complex). Certainly a pinky is less debilitating than a leg, but that’s irrelevant. You’re speaking of severity in a different sense than I am, so I’m going to leave the semantic discussion. I’ll just suggest you look at average time back to play for calf and Achilles injuries in NBA players. I heard an interview with one of the former head physicians for a few NBA teams where he went through a bunch of data on these matters. Sorry, but I’ll go with actual data on recovery times for basketball players over your professional opinion from treating your patients. Thank you though for your perspective as a professional.

Again though, it depends on severity. A minor Achilles strain vs a major calf strain matters. Location matters, but not without context. I’m not in disagreement with any of that information you may have heard. We’re talking about a very specific thing too with Durant. He was not way past the recovery time of a calf strain. That data again means nothing without context, and since we do not have the context you’re making a huge leap in logic based on where you saw the guy grab his leg.

Amazatron Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Wojnarowski broke the story as a "mild calf strain" so that is what the media ran with, but it looks like the Warriors never stated what grade it was. So at the very least, a lack of transparency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazatron Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Steph had a great look, just missed. Warriors scrapped and clawed to even get in that position with Klay going down. Congrats to the Raptors... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chairslinger Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 This was a very fun, drama filled Finals on and off the court. I was thinking about this today and I think it's good for the NBA to start on one like this for its post-LeBron years to show fans there is life after James.

johnny Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Fuck this fucking sucks for Klay and KD. Curry gonna open the new arena with a g league squad. NBA next season is gonna have no KD and no Klay for almost all of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Pellies got trash in return (obviously the picks could change that). Lonzo can’t shoot, Hart is overrated by Laker fans, and Ingram has blood clots and it’s a contract year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5timechamp Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I can only hope the new environment can let the former Lakers thrive..

AbsolutSurgen Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 How did the Golden State Warriors become the team no one likes? Quote Once underdogs, the Warriors are now the team of techbros and douchebags, too slick and too confident for their own good – a metamorphosis capped by the imminent move from Oakland’s cramped and shopworn Oracle Arena to the shimmering disc of Chase Center in downtown San Francisco.

Dodger Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Good to see Lakers get ADwhile getting rid of their trash. What a waste taking Ball was. And if they can get Kawhi or Kyrie, we got a Lakeshow again. Meanwhile in local news the Suns were hoping KD and Kyrie would go to the Nets so they could get.... Spencer Dinwiddie. Now I see why small market team fans get so bitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
