Apparently there’s some bad history with Kawhi and that medical staff, so it makes sense that he wouldn’t trust them. That and I guess a number of former players have said that team medical staffs don’t really give a shit about the long term health of the players
Ahh, I had thought I read a report a few weeks ago that said he had and that he was just dealing with contact and the other miserable things that go with breaking your face
He was cleared after game 1, I thought he was cleared before that, but they held him out because he wasn't ready for contact or something.
And it's the Sixers, Cavs and Raptors at the top. I don't think this Cavs team is any good and how do we all feel about playoff Raptors? It's pretty tight...
And I've seen Isaiah Thomas cost himself $90M for playing through something. And who do you think decides who is and isn't active for a game? Or controls the rotations? Cause it sure as shit isn't the players
not everyone is soft for not playing with an injury. and if it were up to Embiid he would have played but go ahead and keep hating on teams/players for making smart decisions because you don't understand why toughing it out can be stupid
Where did I say he doesn’t travel? I just don’t think every understands what is and isn’t a travel under NBA rules, not the rules they grew up with. What I posted about Harden with regard to travelling was correct, you’re allowed to take two steps after the gather because technically the gather...
“A player who receives the ball while he is progressing or upon completion of a dribble, may take two steps in coming to a stop, passing or shooting the ball”
A direct quote from the rule book. Sorry if I’m just more familiar with the rules than you
The one Harden move from last night was probably a travel. None of his other step backs are. The video you posted last night was made by someone who doesn’t know what is and isn’t a travel. Harden takes a gather step when his dribble is still live then his two steps into the step back, that is...
Yea LeBron in Philly isn’t a great fit, but LeBron in Houston with those shooters is deadly. That works because CP3 and Harden are knock down shooters and you have to at least respect LeBron out there. Philly takes him because you don’t turn down the chance to sign the best player in the league...
I know you didn’t care about that typo, that’s the joke
i don’t think it’s that egregious if you consider defense, PG is an All defense player, Russ.. not that great on that end
