    Achilles injuries have nothing to do with abstaining from alcohol or not. Here's a fact. Iguodala has injured his before and Ty Lawson has not. It is purely about how the muscle is turned.

    Two of the below are contact injuries caused by other players contact. If your knee plants and another player runs into said knee, it can explode. Brian Cushing injuries had NOTHING to do with training and had everything to do with someone ramming into his knee at the wrong time. Just like Westbrook's injury. Love's injury below where the guy got too aggressive. The other two knee tears, one Shumpert's was bad cut and boom. Kyrie was the case of a player already playing hurt and as such he risked further injuring himself.

    The bold is exactly what i'm saying though. That you can't do much about it. The only way you can lower your chance is by not playing too much but it's like saying you have a better chance at winning the lotto with more tickets. The more you play the more chance you have at making the wrong move.

    It's also a contact sport so nothing is stopping another player from forcing you into plating or turning your knee wrong.

    Yeah, some players are just unfortunate genetically. I doubt Yao had bad training, bad habits, and all these thing people for whatever reason attribute to Harden. Yao was just too big and eventually his feet could not support the pounding it took over the years. Nothing he could do to change that just like other Big men with injury problems.

    Or what about Brandon Roy, why was he as injury prone as he was?

    You don't seem to understand that there is no known prevention for ACL injuries.

    All those things that you mention or for players to stay healthy and keep in better shape.

    Also, prove to me that Durant, Rose, Roy, Yao, Grant Hill, Amare Stoudamire, CP3, Westbrook, Love, Irving and many other players. Prove to me their fitness habits and compare it to that of the Warriors players.

    You seem to have knowledge of every players fitness habits to come to the simple conclusion that "Oh, The warriors do this so that's why they have no injuries but these other players don't." Yet the very article you linked said it was shared among the league...

    Wow these guys are just too good, it's not even funny. They might actually get 70 wins this year. Curry is just getting better and taking care of business while Harden gets bent out of shape, figuratively and literally, and is all talk. The system, ball movement, players working hard, like a unit and having some crazy good shooters makes this just an unstoppable team.

    Warriors were a fluke and nothing special according to delusional idiots like Bobbythegreat.

    We have a lot of dumb folks posting here.

    the warriors have got a special group of people there, hopefully, they can bring something great for the game, on the other hand, our rockets team is playing like they don't care about it, just crap, if harden don't score 30 a night, we are going to lose a lot of games

    how they can play defense that bad is beyond explanation.....

    92 - 0, they will win some games by such a big margin they will count as 2 Ws.

    Yeah exactly, they're just really lucky. They're having one long continuous lucky run. It'll end eventually.

    If they get to play the Warriors back then, yeah i could see them kicking the warriors ass, but with today's rules? Bulls wouldn't be allowed to play defense. It'd be just MJ vs the entire Warriors team because no way Pip or anyone else can score enough to help MJ equal the Warriors scoring pace.

    MJ may take even more freethrows in today's NBA. Get to the line 20-25 times against the warriors

    Of course, he would set records for free throw attempts, but that's still not enough to keep up with a hot shooting 3 point barrage from an entire team not just 1 guy.
    The biggest factor is not allowing Pip, MJ and Rodman to play their physical kind of defense. That's what made that team special. Today it's all about masking majority of players inability to play 1 on 1 D with great team defensive strategies and obviously MJ, PIP, Rodman and Phil jackson are smart enough to adapt, but i don't know if in time for a 7 game series with today's rules. Back then i can easily see the Bulls win in 5.

    There's this huge LeBron fan on youtube trying to tell me the Warriors are better than any team Jordan ever faced in his entire career..not just finals..but entire career regular season or post season lol. The Warriors are a product of this era that wouldn't fit as champs in any other era simply because they would get abused physically. IMO They'd get destroyed against the greatest teams of the 90s, 80s, 70s and 60s and the western conference of the early 2000's if they played back then.

    It's a different league now. I like it for the most part. I think it's gotten better overall since the late 90s to mid 2ks overall depth wise.
    The only level which is clearly the best of any era is the point guard position today as far as talent, but the true pure passing point guard is pretty non existent other than CP3.

    You could never convince me to take Blake Griffin over Karl Malone or Charles Barkley, maybe not even Shawn Kemp. You could never convince me to take Durant over Bird. You could never convince me to take LeBron over Magic. You could never convince me to take CP3 over Stockton. You could never convince me to take Kyrie over Isiah. You could never convince me to take Draymond Green over Rodman or even Horace Grant. You could never convince me to take Harden over Drexler. You could never convince me to take Melo over Nique. You could never convince me to take Paul George or Kwahi Leonard over Pippen or hell even Grant Hill. You could never convince me to take Anthony Davis over Hakeem. Lets not even talk about Centers or Jordan.

    Warriors arent winning 73.

    They've already had a couple of crap games this year... still won, but barely.

    They'll win 60+ unless there are significant injuries.. but 73? Not a chance.

    I don't know about 73 wins, but the Warriors will be tasting their first loss this Thursday vs the Clippers.

    Hey guys, don't worry, the Warriors are still just a lucky team. They're luck will run out sooner or later.

    I would pay JUST to see Rodman vs Draymond.
