Yeah we have good amount of players across multiple sports that maintained their performance levels after suffering an ACL injury. The number of players who came back as themselves from an achilles injury is significantly lower. Dominique Wilkins is the only one who kept his levels, and the jury is still out on DeMarcus Cousins.
Definitely. ACL injuries have become way less problematic.
Dirk was a bit heavier through and more apt to get himself in the post, KD can adjust but it's also hard to do so in the your 30s because you're used to playing one way and all of the sudden you have new limits to play within. It can be a difficult adjustment.
I think he can still be a 20+ ppg player, but 28-30+ ppg, probably not.

Not really. He loves it and is loved there, it's a perfect fit for his skillset. IMO the most likely scenario where he would leave would be him being eligible for the supermax but the team wanting him to take a pay cut.
Why? This was a straightforward question regarding team loyalty.🙄
Is that really any different from Giannis, Simmons, etc. who are now having to adjust their games after being used to playing a certain way? Granted, they have more years, but it's not as if it's easier on them when they're used to playing a certain way ever since they were young. It's just difficult in general to change styles.
I think it's also important to note that medical science is always coming up with new treatments, surgeries, and rehabilitation schemes - players not coming back from these injuries in the past is not necessarily indicative of how players will be coming back from the injury in the present or future
Rich Paul getting richer.
Rich Paul playing 4D chess with Ainge.
"Trade for AD I dare you.."
Has surgery to repair a ruptured achilles become the new microfracture knee surgery as the death knell of NBA player careers?
I used to think this would be the case, but not anymore.His right hand man in the media weeks ago wrote an article about Ainge pursuing AD regardless of what Kyrie does. Ainge really wants AD apparently.
Y'all ready for the Gordon Hayward led Celtics.
The problem with that is giving up more allows the team to open up enough space for a third big name.
he was probably like "damn i look hard. MOM PUT IT ON THE GRAM FOR ME"
Ball and Kuzma are on their rookie contracts. How much can they cost at this point?
AC Green shorts and they have a deal. Absolutely pristine for all those years. Mint condition, even wore every game.
It can be done a few different ways, but the Lakers will probably want to free up that space.
Ingram and Ball make decent money because they are high picks. Kuzma is dirt cheap
The shorts?
Dude made history with those shorts!
Millions of bitches wanted to be the one but none of them could make our man cave. A virgin champion is something only this man could pull off.
What the fuck does Kyle kuzma have on Jeannie that he is stopping an AD trade? Ninja would drive that nigga to New Orleans right now for AD.
Yep, together Ball and Ingram make around $12-14 million a year.
Because Kuz was drafted so low he barely makes more than the Vets min.
