Now, first off, it may be the team's fault for being too careful, but I think players these days are too scared to play with an injury in worry of ruiningtheir career.
(No, MJ and the flu does not count, a flu is not an injury, it's a reason to sit out of a game, and a lot of players do, so props to him for that, butit's not an injury).
I can't remember the last time I'd seen someone be injured like Isiah Thomas was (don't hate on the PLAYER Isiah, hate on the coach Isiah), in thePlayoffs where he was playing with a bum ankle and scoring 43 points and 25 in the third. You never hear about things like this anymore, not even with greatplayers. I know it's not the playoffs right now, but LeBron sits out like a week or two with a hurt pinky, who hasn't jammed their thumb, fingers, etc.in basketball?
NBA isn't as physical as it used to be, although that's because the way the game is officiated.
Am I alone in thinking that NBA players aren't as tough and are wimpy compared to NBA players of past? It may be a reflection on the coaches, but man mostNBA players seem
, everyone seems to get injured these days.
Oh and also, Isiah is top three PG's ever.
