[I.D.I.O.T] Harden Injury Update

Haha! That would be a hilariously cynical public response

(I wouldn't even be mad/care if he did fake it; he's earned it)

 

I know everyone is freaking out about our struggles lately, but Harden has needed rest games for awhile now. He shouldn't even need to fake an injury, he just needs to rest. Teams have no problem just resting Curry, Lebron, and Kawhi for whole games despite how badly needed they are on the court.

 

The complete recovery time for this injury with PRP injections was 10 days. PRP + PED recovery would be 2/3s of that time or less; perhaps down to 4 days.


Important thing in the return would be muscle guarding or muscular imbalance causing reinjury or separate injury (basically what happened to Lillard).

 

We're talking about a partial tear of the muscle. Tha't'ain't nothin'. I would hope we just go to treading water until he's truly healthy.

(Now, if Ryan Anderson has more "oh my God! I hit one!" moments, maybe we can pull out some of these closer games. (*cough* While boosting his trade value. *cough* j/k, kind of)

 

I already have that Paul pierce wheel chair with Hardens head on stand by.

 

It he tore muscle, I don´t see how he comes back earlier without being something really really stupid. Too much money involved to see it happening.

 

Take your time beard!!!!

 

This can't be real life. No way was it legitimate then.

IDIOT. And I mean it without the dots

 

I have had friends with the same opinion.
They felt he pulled up because he blew the layup and was embarrassed to lose that game
(which we ended up winning)

I said NAH . . he gonna be out a while
The response was : Takes Time to heal ones pride . . . .

SO I dunno

nah, don't come up beard, just take the rest, no need to risk anything when the season is not even half way......

 

if it was only a strain, then i can believe it. A tear would see him out longer

 

Sure it can.

It all depends on the severity of the tear and his ability to heal.

It is on the short end of the time period but not absurd.

 

Please for the love of god take your time on a hamstring injury.

 

An aside point.

Did you see the MDA smile?

Fans love to b**** about James Harden. I have heard everything on these boards from him being "too ghetto" (yes I am serious), to him being fat, lazy, parties too much ...... even that he doesn't care enough.

At this point I don't see how anyone can question Harden's love of the game, his toughness or work ethic.

 

Maybe it was a grade 1 strain rather than a grade 2 injury?

 

I've pulled hammis before when I was a sprinter.

Even the guys that took a healthy dose of HGH to come back, still took nearly 3 weeks. That's best case scenario.

if it was a strain, you can get back quicker from them than a tear

 

The doctor said it was Grade 2.

Maybe this Kelley Iko guy just likes to embellish. "I heard from Hardens posse" lulz

If Harden doesn't return next week, this will be the third time he tweeted earlier return than everyone else ... for Paul, Moute and now Harden.

lulz ... "next week". sounds like his Luc "news" last week, which Rockets have said won't happen.
