    This. Hopefully now that Woods has seen what he’s capable of, he will really work on his body.

    This is fantastic news. Poor coach looked devastated after the game.

    I gotta stop arguing with "casuals" pretending to be knowledgeable basketball fans

    Having tree trunks doesn't stop you from landing on someone else's shoes and twisting an ankle.

    I agree but I also think Woods needs to get stronger.

    I think someone mentioned this already but he should get the kind of training/treatment Steph Curry had been getting before when he was having sprained ankles all the time. Somehow after all the Steph has been much stronger (or luckier?)

    I agree with this too. While luck is certainly involved with injuries, prevention does include strengthening.

    yeah and it’s only been a few years but Kawhi doesn’t seem bothered by his ankle at all anymore either.

    there’s got to be a training for Wood that will help.

    I’ve always wonder if Harden took stuntman classes with the way he would land on some of his drives.

    Woods muscle or lack thereof had NOTHING to do with a sprained ankle.

    Basketball has had MANY super skinny people be successful....Kevin Durant cough cough....

    With Wood out, Rockets could use a Covid scare.

    Grizzlies style
