Harden playing through soft tissue damage was riskier than someone playing through bone bruising. Its not an injury that is a risk of getting worse, like hardens was.


I just think calling him soft is unfair. Pain is probably too unbearable for him. Everyone’s pain tolerance is different


If it's not ligament damage then in a game of this magnitude you play through it. Sitting this game out with a bruise is baffling.

But he tried to play and well…

If he can’t go, then what could do he? It’s probably a level of pain he can’t play through

I see it every day, I work in injury rehab, I work with athletes. In my opinion, it’s a soft decision. There’s no risk of making this specific ailment worse, it just hurts while you’re doing it. Could it effect his explosiveness, yeah, definitely. But to not even give it a go, sheesh.

Curious how your employer feels about you practicing medicine over the internet with a patient you haven't examined. Citing your "credentials" loses all credibility when you do that lol. You have no idea but that doesn't stop you from judging Trae sight unseen.


Practicing medicine? Lol what. He had an mri. No structural damage was found. I’m commenting on his diagnosis that was reported and how it impacts further risk of injury.

A less than 100% Trae on a gimp foot probably isn't helping the Hawks much anyway, feel bad.

The Bucks' transition offense just took a big hit with Trae out.

I’m not saying you don’t know what you are talking about, you likely know that side more than I do if that’s your field of work, but I think we both agree that it’s about how much pain he could tolerate/work through. If he can only tolerate so much pain then what? All the tweets/info suggest he wanted to play, tried to see what could do but it just didn’t work for now atleast. Maybe game 6 is different


I wish he was out there. I hate to see injuries effect any team.

Lets give these guys wide open jumpers. How about just start Portis this series and bring Lopez off the bench and get him post touches?

Lou should be good enough to keep the Hawks in this, Jrue ain't probably going to do anything on offense again.

I expect Milwaukee to be up 10 at the end of the first.

It's so obvious.

Bud doing his best to hurt us. He's been better than expected this series and not playing Lopez as much as he normally would, but :banghead:
