http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/bk/bkn/5427015.html You, too, Bonzi? I wonder if Tracy and him had some bad experiences with doctors growing up or something?
yeah which isn't the same that we can say for t-mac...its seems players can diagnose and recommend their on paid vacation...oh i mean recovery time from games
Yeah, no difference whatsoever in a non-shooting shoulder injury and a knee injury. Now, are you all going to start a bunch of threads ripping on Bonzi for not getting an MRI?
i strained tendon is something that can be iced down... i mean its not like mcgrady is gonna use his knee to dunk on somebody
lol, I was going to say the same thing. T-Mac got his ******* ripped by fans for not getting an MRI and trying to play on that bad knee. Then Bonzi does the same thing and he's a warrior. While T-Mac was labeled as an "idiot" for not getting a MRI. Anyways, I think everyone is like that is some way. Most people don't go to the Doctor until its something very serious in fear of hearing bad news when you thought you felt fine. I know I ain't the only one here that hates hospitals.
I hope you are being sarcastic, but with this board I never can tell anymore. If you think Mcgrady doesnt use his knee to do everything basketball related you obviously dont know anything about basketball.
i was being sarcastic but i see him in clubs from pictures and **** I just wonder wtf, but I see guys like kobe icing his knee down and still doing his thing
I think Tmac gets hurt in a lot of different ways because of his playing style. He plays soft and lazy, and then when he wants to do something he turns it on. I think if he played 100% all the time, that he body would not be going through those changes and maybe he wouldn't get so many different types of injuries. Im not a Tmac basher, I like him and his game. But I just want him to play consistently hard all the time and not just when he feels the necessity to do so. If his stamina isn't good enough to play 12 minutes straight at 100% like Rick Adelman likes to do with him, I think he has enough time in the league to let Adelman know that he will be going 100% on both end of the court from now on, so he will need more earlier breaks with substitutions.
if bonzi made $20 mil per and was our best player, yes there would be upteen threads about this topic. i do think his reasoning is riduculous, just like mcgrady's, and i also think there's been times where bonzi has lacked focus this season, just like mcgrady.
Bonzi deserves as much critcism for not seeing a doctor about the problem as TMac got. I would guess that most people who don't go to a doctor til they absolutely have to, wait because of the expense. I would imagine the team pays for these types of check ups though, and considering the money these guys make based on their physical fitness you would think they would be a bit more concerned with knowing the injury status so it could be properly treated right away.
