John Wall is *probably* out for the playoffs IMO

nikka have you been watching Wall in his career :mjlol:

did you even watch Game 1 when he was weavng through the Hawks defense with the sprained wrist to boot?

He's a playmaker and one of the best there is, he has a ton of room to grow but you're just repeating stuff people said about him from 2010-12

The Wiz have problems but Wall isn't one of them
lol are u serious this nygga cant score
did u watch how the raptor gave him a free throw line jumper the whole series and he couldnt hit it :stopitslime:
Russell or Kyrie would have had 70 pts if they played them like that
i dont consider beal and paul running off screens and him passing it to them to get assist play making

Love and Wall's injury were both on impact/actual plays you can point out. Wear and tear had no real bearing on those two. Same with Mike Conley. Sefalosha got his leg broke by a cop. Most of the major injuries haven't been wear and tear.

Even impact injuries don't happen in a vacuum. Guys take brutal hits, go crashing to the floor, pull on each other, etc. all the time without getting knocked out for the year. When you have little nagging injuries, it makes you overcompensate in ways that put extra stress on other parts. When your body is worn down, you put it into dangerous positions that you wouldn't have ended up in at full strength. When your body is worn down, you can't recover that extra millimeter that could be the difference between a minor injury and a major injury. And when your body is worn down, it breaks easier than a well-rested body.

Not to mention that in the circumstances I mentioned, there's simply more chances for this to happen. Not all of the injuries came in the playoffs - there was Durant, Westbrook, Wade, Kobe, Webster, Camelo, Varejao, etc. When guys are going all-out most plays, every game, you just increase the opportunity for an injury to happen, in contrast to certain eras where certain guys coasted through a lot of regular-season games, especially on defense.

My football career in college ended due to a knee injury (ACL, meniscus, cartilage, and bones all damaged). But even though there's 2 particular plays that you can point to and say, "That was the initial injury and that was the final injury", the fact that I'd been playing all year with a pulled muscle in my lower back certainly could have contributed to the strain on the opposite leg that ended up with a blown-out knee.

I usually agree with you, because I feel like you should only really be fishing for assists if you're incapable of scoring yourself, but in Wall's case it's the engine that gets the Wizards going. They won't beat the Hawks without him

He's clearly trolling.
