    All he gets is leg cramps and his back locks on him occasionally. Those and DeLonte West.

    Wtf....... At some point it isn't a coincidence anymore that there are so many injuries occurring.

    Illuminati?

    Nah, their profession is literally to exert their bodies. It isn't a coincidence at all. That's what they get paid to do.

    It's like saying "At some point it isn't a coincidence anymore that there are so many soldiers dying in WWI." It never was coincidence to begin with... It's the point!

    Putting your body on the line for the greater good - same with the NBA, only players aren't trying to kill each other - they're still trying to dominate physically, which leads to injury.

    Magic might want to move to full tank mode - we could take Tobias Harris off their hands.

    It's simply the game today. The game is based probably 90% around athleticism and not around skill. They don't learn the proper ways to train, jump, lift, etc. and by the time they get to the NBA these athletes are all out of whack. At that point it's also difficult to change their habits. You can thank Youth basketball for that.

    Your body is not meant to do the things they do. They are constantly pushing their bodies past the thresholds of safety.

    So...

    3. Embiid - out
    4. Gordon - out
    7. Randle - out

    Could this be a trend with these one and done players? Blake. Nerlens. These guys can't handle the NBA level or what? Bodies still developing while playing a physical style of game.

    Just out of curiosity, deos anybody know what is the longest time Lebron was out with an injury?
    I don't recall anything, which is pretty amazing and lucky with his physical game play.

    ^ still nothing compared to Dre Miller. The latter barely gets off the ground though ;).

    He hasn't missed more than 7 games in any season since he was drafted. Not counting this season, he's missed an average of 3.91 games per season. Remarkable.
