His metabolism was low

it's more a functional condition of the muscle, but still very real injury!
He looked out of shape to me & was still favoring his leg. I think he was in pain but some of it was to be expected. He could play, but the injury and rehab needed to be managed. The "shutting it down" for the season and bailing on his team was complete bull in my opinion. I sided with him and understood his position at first but then it became clear that he was manipulating things at Uncle Dennis' advice. I wonder if the Spurs have any legal alternatives to pursue the other doctor that works for Philly. I think he works for Philly or some other team. SMH
His best selling shoe will most likely be an orthopedic shoe for retired people who can't get on the court anymore. They'll call it Leonard's Taming of the Shoe line.
From what I read Kawhi's team believes that calcification of the quad muscle occurred when Kawhi suffered a thigh bruise last season and that the failure to diagnose it led to his tendinopathy. This doesn't make much sense considering calcification is easily identified via x-rays or ultrasound imaging. So there isn't any reason for the two medical camps to disagree if there is calcification. The only thing I can think of is if his team is claiming there was calcification which led to tedinopathy but the calcification was reabsorbed without ever being diagnosed. That seems like quite a stretch though and doesn't explain why he still did not respond to their therapy.
The simplest explanation for the way Kawhi has handled this past season is that he knows he has a chronic injury that will affect his career and he doesn't want anyone to know about it until he gets a new contract.
True true.
I would check this article out, I don't hear a lot about muscles calcifying: http://www.sportsinjuryclinic.net/sp...tis-ossificans
"If a bad muscle strain or contusion is neglected then it is possible myositis ossificans can occur. It is usually as a result of impact which causes damage to the sheath that surrounds a bone called the periosteum as well as to the muscle."
"Common myositis ossificans causes include failing to apply cold therapy and compression immediately after the injury or applying heat too soon. Ice will help reduce pain, inflammation, and swelling and encourage the injured muscle to heal. Having intensive physiotherapy or massage too soon after the injury which may increase internal bleeding and prevent healing. Returning too soon to training after exercise is also a cause of myositis ossificans."
If this is what Kawhi has, and the Spurs doctors misdiagnose it, the Spurs are partly to blame and I could see why the rift is there. Hopefully the relationship is still salvageable.. if not, it's bad for both parties, tbh.
Also, if I know, some calcifications can be minute that it won't show on the X-ray for 1-2 weeks, and even then, if it is on the X-ray, it would be a large calcification. Sometimes small ones can affect the player as well. This is an interesting situation for sure.
Za Za stuck his foot out with us up 23..
And everything went down the ter after that..
Then we find out Zaza is Kawhi's uncle.
Nobody is injured for more than a year, look Paul George his leg flew all over the cuckoo´s nest and he is fine.
If he makes such Ricky Bobby drama it means its a bad deal for Spurs anyway, you give 220 mil to an injury prone player with no personality, is he like Michael Jackson? thats the wrong MJ we wanted him to be like the other one.
He was clearly misdagnosed.
Then what was the correct diagnosis you
Time to put the semen shield away. But I see you found new troll material, so carry on I guess.
Based on what, cuck?
Cancer. And he’s infected the team with it.
That's the dumbest race baiting bull I've ever heard, and that's saying a lot in 2018.
Poor players
That ty metaphor is just as applicable to any employment relationship. That is to say it's not valid at all, because obviously slaves weren't paid.
Un yourself.
If he was, then it's understandable, since myositis ossificans is very rare, and the way to detect it earliest (ultrasound) is not an imaging procedure that's usually used to diagnose musculoskeletal problems. It should have shown up later on MRI though...and MRIs are handed out like candy to injured professional athletes.
Regardless, none of the injuries that his camp has mentioned would have caused him to miss an entire season.
Furthermore, his camp leaking that he only wants to go to LA adds fuel to the fire that this "injury mishandling" business is just being used as an excuse to get out of SA while saving face.
I get it. His camp probably saw that Jordan brand offer and thought, "this wouldn't have happened if he played in LA." I just wish he would've been honest and upfront about not wanting to be here sooner...
Thank god the biggest issue my Eagles have faced (outside of being disinvited from the White House) is turning down an early 2nd round pick for a Super Bowl winning QB because why not? How the tides have turned. Honestly can’t believe it.
At least this small/big market BS isn’t an issue in the NFL. The teams/employers have control like in basically every other job.
Ding ding ding. Kawhi has had quad tendon issues since 2014, so this is nothing new. If he does have tendinosis, then he's damaged goods and definitely not worth the supermax
Calcification doesn't happen immediately. It takes a lot of time. Would be evident on xray or CT if significant and only months after the injury. And injury would have to be severe (like car accident severe ...).
Instead of people debating tendinopathy, etc... how about people start diagnosing him with malingering ...
It doesn't add up, but it's also a very random problem to fabricate. This whole situation is weird, tby
nephew's knee is acting up again; he's out for tonight's pivotal game 3. (per woj, it's not related to his previous ACL tear)
