he is going to have one of those staircase noses hockey enforcers used to have.

Giant heavy people jumping really high is dangerous. 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. | ||

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. my math teacher used to say "don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you see" | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||
