Anthony Davis Discussion: Only Player On Both All NBA + All Def

Again, this is AD's apparent decision as he said he spoke to like 5 doctors. Why do we keep dumping on our staff? And the ongoing myth of Phoenix's staff .... are those guys even there any more, and do they prevent s*** happens injuries and players' (not named Kobe) thresholds for pain and the burning desire to play no matter what?

 

i think the hate for our medical staff goes back to the bynum days and how "4-6 weeks" would end up turning into the rest of the season

actually, maybe all the way back to malone's knee injury that was handled horribly by the team

 

That's kind of what I mean. All those guys are probably twice removed as are Phoenix's staff (just guessing).

 

its AD n injuries, nothing to be confused about

 

Such disdain … can’t wait til he’s gone and the good old tank days are back? Bron will be gone by then too. No one else with that kind of talent choosing to be here over the extra bag their own team can pay ‘em.

I say disdain because clearly that was not what the conversation was about but you enjoyed reminding us all. Thanks for that.

 

I agree with others that if it really was a simple, small incision procedure to remove that cracked or whatever bone spur and that if it was only going to take a couple weeks recovery to be back, then why would AD choose to do this "no guarantees it doesn't flare up and cause problems again" approach?

Move over Dennis! I'm not a doctor, but like anyone else here that plays GM or coach or player from the comfort/safety of their armchair .... my diagnosis is he's a:

 

Someone should have said in response to "Trend my Pole"

 

With the severity of the ankle sprains as of late that bone spur probably came from these sprains

 

2 more games and let's rock and roll!

 

Not the way he has to fly around ….

 

not to be a downer, but those are shots i could take after i threw my back out a while back...

anyway, i'm obviously hoping for the best.

 

hes rarely seen on the court anyway these days....whats difference between those tanking days n now?

 

it doesn't matter. no trade we make is going to get us more wins in the interim. trades shouldn't be made based on AD's current or expected availability this season, imo.
