Clearly it was Durant’s fault for playing just like it was RG3’s. There is no fault on the Warriors front office, medical staff or coaches for this, its entirely the players fault for playing, just like it was all RG3’s fault in 2012-13... Where’s the eye roll emoji?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fault of the fans/media who were questioning Durant's heart/will because he wasn't playing (even though he hadn't been cleared). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I can see it both ways If I'm cleared and I can help win another championship, shouldn't I go out there? At the same time, if I'm not 100% (and I'm facing free agency), should I risk exacerbating the injury and hurting my value? It's an emotion vs. logic kind of decision. I get why Golden State wanted him back: they wanted to win and Durant (even banged up) would help them do that. But Durant? That's going to be a question that he's going to be wondering about for a long time, I'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminder Durant money is guranteed regardless Football guys aren't! Apple and oranges here, but in their respective cases: In Durant's case - he's a free agent after this season. He has no guaranteed money whatsoever. So, he could be worried (though, he's made quite a bit over the years both in terms of contracts and in endorsements). That injury could hurt his next year's salary and force him to take a smaller amount to show that he's healthy before getting one more contract commeasurate with his talent level. In Anderson's case - he has no protection in his contract beyond a negligible amount of bonus money. So, he should be worried that he'll lose his spot. He has no protection and must justify his position on the roster. Choosing not to demonstrate his skills potentially hurts him in this case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to disagree with that, talk to the man upstairs. Breaking legs? Ehh... there's data to suggest that older bones break more easily. So don't trot out old QBs. But yeah, even young bones can break. Ligaments? Absolutely can prevent quite a bit of those injuries. They are not all dumb luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno. I was kinda hoping (just a little bit) to have the Redskins be on it. Just to see the inside stuff on the camp battles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
