Almost every season of survivor is a bad season. All the ugly chicks always vote out the hot chicks. Even my fiance recognizes my "hot chick theory" as true at this point and she is resistant to internal-female conflict theories.

UFC female external conflicts are more fun.

A closer look at Giannis's injury.


Another bad landing leading to a leg injury.

man ... Booker is taking such a chance not wearing a mask.
he is going to have one of those staircase noses hockey enforcers used to have.

ya, i made that point during the Embiid bad landing discussion with a past user. The discussion ended when Embiid stated explicitly that he was working on his landing mechanics. Up to that point the past user insisted Embiid's landing mechanics were a non-issue. I'm not sure if he was trolling or not.

any how , i find kinesiology a fascinating topic to study.

I'll break it down for you so its more simple : poor landing mechanics mechanics like embiid's result in bad landings.

Dr. Sutterer pointed out how BS the "we need more imaging" line was from the Clippers a few weeks ago. Today, he provides a deep dive into what is being rumoured about the Giannis injury.

Or planting your foot behind you while getting ready to sprint and accidentally stepping on a referee's foot in the process.This season seems to just have some weird stuff in addition to the fatigue injuries.

i think there is probably is a good/preferred form for everything (walking, jumping, running etc). when i went trampoline jumping for the first time as a kid, they would tell you not to land with a straight leg, keep it bent. but in basketball, you dont land the same way every time due to different reasons, so while i believe there probably is a good/better way to land after jumping in general, you wont be able to do it consistently in a basketball game.

It's like Mike Tyson says where everybody has a plan until he punches them in the face. Giannis got injured while contesting an alley-oop.

Totally, anything can happen and will happen when people have trained their body's to the absolute limit. Which with less rest is going to happen even more. There is only so much force a joint, ligament,, muscle, whatever can withstand. If landing mechanics was a thing (and I wish it was less injuries would be great) you would be able to pick out the people who had poor ones and either correct it or at least predict future injuries. A guy able to do that would be worth millions upon millions for a NBA teams and wouldn't be making click baity you-tube videos AFTER people got hurt.


Landing mechanics are 100% a thing...

It's the practical application mid-game where the difficulties arise. These guys are not going to give up points in a close game just to avoid landing in a way that has a x% higher chance of leading to a chronic injury, 5 years from now.

Most injuries caused by mechanical issues arise from repetitive stress, and not one-time "Oops, I landed the wrong way!" circumstances.
Teamwork is awesome... As long as your team is doing all the work!

I think this is Karma coming back to repay Chris Paul with his first NBA championship.

After so many playoffs where his teams got bounced due to injuries he suffered, they're paying him back all at once for his destiny-run.
