there are many examples of players at every level of play that returned too early from injury. care to guess who cleared them to play? did those team doctors ever face penalties? i doubt it and if they did we never hear of it.
it always gets pushed back on the player if they return too early. the team doctor can only say that structurally everything should be fine. that's what the owners, management and coaches want to hear. dwight howard may not be the best example, but he's one of the most recent ones. he says his shoulder and back were hurting. but everyone was pressuring him to play. the team docs said he was cleared to play (on a torn labrum that will probably need surgery in the offseason if he makes it that far).
so to say the team docs would NEVER do that is kind of naive imo.
I'm saying that a team doc that works for a team that owes dude like $80M more over the next 4 years after this would never take that kinda risk letting him play unless they were 100% certain he was cleared.
a team doc taking a risk with shumpert isn't a big deal. he's not the face of the franchise, face of the league, on 2k13, or a top 5 player. on top of that drose makes 16 times more than shumpert. the comparision of how a team doc would treat drose in relation to shumpert is apples and orange when it comes to being cautious.
cuz the doc that clears shumpert and he gets hurt will quickly be forgotten. but the doc that clears rose too early and he quickly gets re-injured would be basically committing career suicide.


you don't watch that many bull games do you? boozer takes jumpers all day..we gave him money to play in the paint not shoot jmpers all day...and when rose in the game snoozer watches fam
.....are main problem is that we yet have one year that all players play one full season together also
