What are the chances that the severity of the injury is exaggerated?

I know they were saying Lebron was ready to return this week and now it’s between “2-3 weeks”.

Perhaps “injuries” are the new “load management”.


Not sitting guys this long, consecutively for load management...you are not just rolling guys out and say play playoff games and thinking you are getting results... that's asking for both injury and getting bounced early..

If you lift/run everyday and then go try to do where you left off after a month off... not happening

can't wait for the NBA to wheel out some cherrypicked stat about how the injuries are actually down or some shyt.


it's very clear this rushed and crammed season has had serious negative consequences for the best players in the league..
I cannot believe they thought 72 games was a good idea. Really?

You’re acting like the players didn’t agree to this same schedule breh.

If we're being honest, I think that's exactly what it is with some of these injuries.

If it was the playoffs, then some of these dudes would be on the court.
Isn’t that what some said about KD initially & we see what happened.

Condensed schedule isn’t good for players 30+ with a lot of mileage

Some of us were instead making the argument that he was more injured than what the Nets were initially letting on. My main complaint was that they weren’t being transparent about the situation.

Now Lebron and Harden are completely different stories as they aren’t coming back from the same injury that KD did.
