Fight sarcasm with sarcasm
what part of "he could have had same exact injury on a gym over the summer" don't you guys get?
Do you not believe that a higher level of compe ion would yield a higher risk of injury? Games at the gym are probably far less paced and far less chaotic.
you think so? you obviously never played in a gym before.
Didn`t Duncan cut his foot at home by steping on his own glass or something?
Maybe he should be going home where he can injure himself.
And what is your basis for comparison? Have you played in international basketball compe ions before?
Pero - a tired argument..
don't need to. I've SEEN international compe ions.
Oh the irony...Pero - a tired argument..
Seeing and feeling are very different things. I'd also like to venture this: how physically imposing are the people you're playing at the gym? Are they anything like the centers that play in leagues? 6'10" and above?
Pero - what's ironic?
v2freak, any person with common sense can sense the intensity of games by watching them live. especially if we're basketball fans. come on
not only that but about 50% of injuries happen in PRACTICE, PRACTICE!!!!
furthermore, there is no evidence whatsoever that proves that INTENSITY affects the rate of injury in sports. NO EVIDENCE
The thing is that players can get injured in A LOT of ways. They can get just as easily injured at home as well as if they`re playing basketball.Pero - what's ironic?
Does that mean they should be locked in a padded white room when not playing? NO.
To me saying that my argument is a tired one, and not seeing that your own argument is the same, is ironic.
Are you serious? I cannot begin to describe the difference between seeing and doingv2freak, any person with common sense can sense the intensity of games by watching them live. especially if we're basketball fans. come on

cheguevara, any person with common sense can deduce that an intense game with lots of slashers is more likely to inflict harm on someone than a lackadaisical game full of jumpshooters.
Yes, let's stop the players from doing everything, because evidently, going to the bathroom in your home and playing a game that is notorious for wearing out the body (specifically the joints) are no different from one another.
Every player has said the off season is when they work on their game, improve it, rest up, do their conditioning. The off season is when Manu could be conditioning himself to withstand the bangs and bumps of the NBA season. The off season is when Parker be could working intensively with Engelland on his outside shot. Instead they're ing around in Japan.
Again, the off season that Manu didn`t play for Argentina, and how did he do in the NBA?
Anyways, it doesn`t matter what we think, players have the right to choose.
Have to go study now...
The season he played in the WC and twisted his ankle, how did he play for the Spurs? You saying he was too rested last year and that's why he crapped out?Again, the off season that Manu didn`t play for Argentina, and how did he do in the NBA?

Maybe he'd have been even tier last year had he played. Maybe he was just worn and one summer off wasn't enough.
are you saying fans of basketball cannot appreciate the intensity of games?? gimme a ing break. You can't see the difference in intensity between a regular season game vs. a playoff game vs. an allstar game?????
again, you must not understand the nature of Tony's injury. He injured his finger when trying to play defense. Noone was slashing, etc as you say. Not only that, he got injured in a tuneup game, not a real intense WC gamecheguevara, any person with common sense can deduce that an intense game with lots of slashers is more likely to inflict harm on someone than a lackadaisical game full of jumpshooters.
Sorry to dissapoint you but Manu is as conditioned for NBA season as he will ever be.
You the Spurs trainer?
no comment
You could have left off comment.
Unfortunately we do not see eye to eye on the intensity issue. Basketball fan or not, there is a huge difference between doing and seeing. I can't put it any other way or simplify it any more.
What player was he guarding, and what was the player doing when Tony got injured? My example was an example only, it was not directed at a specific incident. Just because no Spurs players have sustained concussions yet doesn't mean we should wait around for it to happen.
one of the best french handball player can't make a worldchampionship because he burned himself in his shower and France finish third.
i'm not a great athlete of course but one of my biggest sprain ankle was in my bedroom when i slided.
maybe you must put the player in the white room in the psychiatric hospitals maybe they can don't hurt.
