Re-check your numbers.PandaKidd wrote:if you frustration is that he could NOT have gotten injured had we a center, I get it, but also understand he could have gotten injured doing anything. Im not sure Im willing to make the leap that this "out of position" stuff is why he is injured, and that having a true center would have saved him.
He SAID it was hurting him, his dad said it was hurting him and others made the same claim. It's not a "leap" if he called it 2 years ago. I don't understand how some of y'all can keep pretending that his injury came as a surprise when Horford called it.
Maybe the problem is that some of you could only see the numbers. There are disadvantages to any philosophical method, y'all need to acknowledge that. I'm sure my reliance on experience and, what they call in baseball, "the book" has kept me from seeing the reality at times. But we "saw" this clearly (you can go back and look it up) before it happened.
Again, i dont really care what Al and his dad have to say. To make the leap that guarding guys 2-3 inches bigger than you causes pectoral tears and season ending injuries, then, well the NBA isnt for you. Cry me a river.
No basis for any factual conclusion. NONE. Horford wants to play PF because he could PROBABLY be a top 5 PF in the LEAGUE if he was allowed to play there. It doesnt cause injuries.
This is the NBA. not cheerleading.
