Isaac....when is he back? 

Post#1 » by J_Magic » Sun Dec 10, 2017 12:19 am

Before every game, I Google Isaac' s name to find out if he's back. It's annoying to read "Isaac out for (Day) game.

Yes I'm annoyed. Hope the team can gives us more details on his recovery.

He was a positive player for us.

Keon Weise Googled "sprained ankle home remedies" and he's just trying them one by one.

We can report that essential oils have a very pleasant smell, but seem to make no appreciable difference in the recovery process.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I know, right. This must not be your typical sprain.
WTF. Where is our guy.
I mean, keep him out till he's 95% at least.
But tell us what's going on or something.

Hopefully he has the work ethic to rehabilitate.

One question I have about him is early in the season he had a one day stomach bug when we played against Charlotte. I'm wondering to myself if him and Bacon got together and he had the one day hangover.

It's the first time he's ever sprained his ankle. I remember my first ankle roll, I fractured it and it took almost 10 weeks to get back on the court. Then it took another couple weeks to not be scared to do it again. How long has he been out now, 3-4 weeks?

High ankle sprains can linger. You can actually improve your skill at avoiding sprains when you roll your ankle. It's instinctual to fight the roll by contracting the muscles when it happens, but that's what usually does most of the damage. It's really tough to tell how severe an ankle sprain is just by seeing how far it rolled.

Not that I'm superman, but I rolled my ankle all the time and never felt anything and just kept on playing and didn't hurt the next day.

That said, I'm incredibly small compared to these players lmao

My foot tends to get messed up when I either wear the wrong shoes(the bottom of the shoes are too cheap, and I walked around on concrete/asphalt too much), the bottom of the shoes are worn out or when I bring in shopping carts and I pull on the lumber carts. But I take plenty of protein and I recover the next day. I like to know the diets on these players cause the ones that don't eat meat like Kyrie Irving, Kyrie is never hurt.

Apparently done some non-contact work today. That's all the information available.

Oh, and this:

Some of sports' rising stars are big fans of the video game series Call of Duty. Rookies Jonathan Isaac and Juju Smith-Schuster joined the B/R studio to play the latest Call of Duty WWII. Watch the video above to see them in action.

Ohhhhhhhhh, it was a high ankle sprain. It all makes sense now.

Someone on the Knicks - I think it was Tyson Chandler - got a high ankle sprain a few years back and was out for. Ev. Er. They can take awhile.

I had a severe ankle sprain playing ball years ago.

Took weeks to heal, and was not confident for many more weeks after.

We all know it can take weeks to heal...but that's not the point

The team hasn't provided regular updates and it's been more than a month now? how much longer can we expect him to be out. Is it just a sprain or something else? Surely this isn't the first ankle sprain Isaac has ever had.

He's already listed out vs the Blazers tomorrow. Probably going to be at least another week.

He's actually listed as questionable.
