So why the injury plague now? It seems like the GLeague players don't miss many games either. Are our current players cursed?
The nba has turned into "just make it to the post season, because that's where the money is", or, "just rest, we are going for ping pong balls".So why the injury plague now? It seems like the GLeague players don't miss many games either. Are our current players cursed?
Stockton and Malone should have missed games. We would have won more in the playoffs if they had.
D league players are fighting to get into the league. Way different situation from nba players. They are much more willing to play through injuries and risk worse injuries.
If players are healthy then they don't need do sit out. It doesn't help to get hurt obviously. But playing through injuries does help teams. Resting players a little during regular season does help them in the playoffs. A fresher jazz could have won it all during that era.I feel like we won a lot of playoff games with stockton and malone but i feel like jordans bulls teams were quite good.
I dont think other good teams players were missing many games either. How many regular seasons games did jordan miss during his championship runs? Im guessing not many and his teams were pretty good.
Its just a different era and i dont think missing games due to injury is necessarily the recipe for playoff success.

This is coming from Webber who was so tough that he intentionally knocked down the smallest guy on the court.Webber's always pretty complimentary of Stockton's toughness.
Perhaps reframe that from “knocking down the smallest guy on the floor” to “knocking down the toughest guy on the floor.”This is coming from Webber who was so tough that he intentionally knocked down the smallest guy on the court.
Yeah, he shouldn't be a judge on toughness

He sure as hell didn't try to knock down Karl... Webber is a cowardPerhaps reframe that from “knocking down the smallest guy on the floor” to “knocking down the toughest guy on the floor.”
Or, Weber could have developed his rational for how tough he was after his shenanigans.

Or because Karl would have laid him right back out. That elbow would have been a flying.He didn't think Karl was the toughest guy on the floor.
Sarcasm rarely translates on the internetSome of you guys are too literal and no fun.
I think Donovan is old school like Karl and John. He definitely looked hurt the first couple of months last season.
