Its weird you hear the players are more advanced, medicine is more advanced, they have access to better diets, training regimens, they are more athletic due to evolution.... but nikkas getting hurt left and right... it seems like for all the "advancements" today's game has over the old school way more players are suffering injuries
the player play harder now. bAck in the day it was one nikka dribble all the other four get rest on various possessions.

Yall complaining about injuries, this happens every season. Unfortunately it's a part of sports.

I knew something was wrong when he went to the bench area & someone told him to "take your time". Couple that with them sitting the remainder of the 4th quarter with all that time left.

I think much of it has to do with how fast paced basketball is today. This trend wasn't too high until the last 5-6 years

These players don't like to rest....

Shannon Sharpe said he gave his body at least a few weeks off before training again...

Kawhi is notorious for 3 a day workouts...

Mind you he has a degenerative knee..

Way more aide to side shyt. Like Euros.

Then on defense, everybody gotta rotate and shyt. 6'6 dudes moving like defensive backs. 7 ft players gotta protect the rim then run 24 feet to contest a. 3

How was he just sitting in the bench casually with an ACL injury?

:dwillhuh:
My potna ruptured his Achilles Monday when we were hooping and after initially laying on the ground for a bit, he sat in the chair until his wife came and took him to the hospital. I looked like :patrice: at him casually sittin there chillin (nikka even made a video for FB). It was our second week back since March last year and I felt/feel bad for inviting him
