    How the did people watch the 80s and 90s when 25% of the NBA consisted of White American players? It's virtually the equivalent of inserting WNBA players into today's league..

    It's not. If what Stein is saying is true, Love wants to play but he hasn't been cleared by doctors per the protocol, and he is not allowed to play until he is.

    Return-to-Participation Decisions:

    Timing of Return-to-Participation Protocol.
    A player diagnosed with a concussion should be regularly monitored for 24 hours for the evolution of symptoms, and accordingly the player may not begin the return-to-participation exertion protocol until 24 hours after the time of injury.

    Return to Participation Requirements.
    A player who had a concussion may not return to participation until:
    • He is without concussion-related symptoms at rest;
    • He has been evaluated by a physician;
    • He has successfully completed the NBA return-to-participation exertion protocol;
    • A team physician has discussed the return-to-participation process and decision with the Director of the NBA Concussion Program, Dr. Jeffrey Kutcher. Note that the final return-to-participation decision is to be made by the player’s team physician, in order to maximize the consistency of care for the player.


    Return-to-Participation Protocol:
    The return to participation protocol involves several steps of increasing exertion – from a stationary bike, to jogging, to agility work, to non-contact team drills.
    With each step, a player must be symptom free to move to the next step. If a player is not symptom free after a step, he stops until he is symptom free and begins again at the previous step of the protocol (i.e., the last step he passed without any symptoms).
    It’s important to note that there is no timeframe to complete the protocol. Each injury and player is different and recovery time can vary in each case.

    The racial demographics of the league are pretty much the same today compared to what they were back then. Currently the league is composed of 74.4 percent black players and 23.3 percent white players. I know you are going to spin the white players part by saying they are not all White Americans but to me race is race regardless of location.

    Love is a pussy. SpursTalk AltTroll sustains all kinds of injuries and still bellies up to the keyboard and strokes.

    They will have a better chance if it was Irving with the concussion.

    A good list of good to great white 80's early 90's players:

    Bird
    McHale
    Ainge
    Rambis
    Chambers
    Walton
    Stockton
    Sikma
    Chambers
    Price
    Mullin
    The Paxson brothers
    Brad Davis
    Dan Issell
    Kiki Vandeweghe

    Not the best dunkers you can find ...
    But I am taking that squad in a FT/3point shooting contest. Plus some are really good players overall ...

    Stop the "reverse racisim"

    Love is going to be the scapegoat for the series if they win Gm 3 w/ Mozgov in the starting lineup.

    Yes I've been saying that since the trade happened. Wiggins talent could have been developed further with Lebron mentoring and had more scoring on the floor. Not to mention his upside. You could have gotten the same skillset as Love at a much cheaper price and had a better overall team. Wiggins averaged almost 21 points this season.

    Anyway, Great. Now you all have an excuse. I guess Golden State is fake and a team that was lucky to beat the Cavs because Love was injured.

    Probably would suit the Cavs better w/o Love in the lineup. Well, from a health standpoint it's better to be on the safe side then run the risk of seriously damaging your cranium. Who knows how it goes down. But the narrative isn't going to change. They've whooped a healthy Cavs team. If they stay the course and close it out, it will be well-deserved and you can't put an asterisk by this le like last year's or 99.

    Um, ya, it makes a huge difference

    If there wasn't a significant difference between White Americans vs. International, the former wouldn't have declined from 25% or so to today's 5%(approx)..

    The number will continue declining, too..there are still owners that prefer drafting White Americans(Dad Killer, for example) to keep the inventory healthy(as Larry Bird's ugly ass said, the NBA "needs more White American stars"), but the overall number will continue to suffer..
