Markelle Fultz Discussion II

[James40]

Oh biscuits? Well gotta got to go old school and go with KFC. Their recipe changed a little (like their cole slaw, that used to be BANGIN!) but KFC still has the best biscuits

Over Popeyes? C’mon man.

Popeyes biscuits = Prime Kate Upton

KFC biscuits = Kate Winslet

Everything Chic Fila = Marty Feldman, at any point.

The aforementioned army showed up in this thread. Where's your Popeyes fanboys?

He’s done eating processed guinea pig, probably heading to Popeyes now with a bag of ice on his shoulder to prepare for 10 for 10 bucks.

Same old nonsense and shame on people who blamed him on being mentally soft and not being hurt

Why? At least they're reporting it.

[CoreyGallagher]

Specialist confirming no structural damage is good.

[Negrodamus]

I wonder if that means he won't play for three weeks? If there's no structural damage, I'd assume he's available to play.

Muscle imbalance is like what 8th grade 1st time weight lifters get. There are a myriad of simple stretches and exercises he can do to lessen the tightness. I'm not physical therapist, but on the surface level, it definitely doesn't seem like a valid reason to miss time.

If he sits for the next three weeks, that seems kind of ridiculous.

[PhilasFinest]

Sixers are going to take there time with him now that its out there. Probably be OVER cautious like usual.

Let it heal 100%, get him reps with that jumper to bring it back to where it was and then let him loose. I highly doubt they want anymore negative press on him or the situation.

[cksdayoff]

he needs to see an acupuncturist. if it's not structural, but muscular, then acupuncture ca help alleviate whatever muscle pain he has. i've had acupuncture on my neck and lower back and it really works.

[CoreyGallagher]

“He may have some shoulder pain issues but scientific literature is not supportive of that as an important diagnosis (scapular muscle imbalance)”

Got this response from a doctor that I had asked since I’ve never heard of scapular muscle imbalance.

[JojoSlimbiid]

Made up...clearly.

[Negrodamus]

Kentucky also has a pretty good sports Psychology program down there. Maybe swing by.

It absolutely is. I had an imbalance that cause my anterior hip flexors to be out of whack It was absolutely debilitating athletically. I have no experience with an imbalance w/ the shoulders but w/ my hips I couldn't squat, run and sitting was painful. You're right that it is a lot of staightforward exercises but they need time to work.

This sounds to me like:

"While we have confirmed no structural damage (VERY important), we have no clue what's wrong with Markelle."

[Black Mage]

It's time for Medina to clean house and dump these garbage team doctors. That's the 3rd misdiagnosis in 2 years.

It's either that or BC has lied to us for the 3rd time in 2 years.

Time to break a pool cue and have try outs to see which group BC or MDs keep their job.

Wonder how Silver feels to see his chosen one still lying to us fans after thst was the ready made excise to dump Hinkie.

[kingofthecourt67]

lol the biggest question is why it took so long to shut him down. We're a joke.

[Kobblehead]

The specialists have reached the same conclusion our medical staff has, so why are we still killing them?

No structural damage, just soreness.

Because they cleared him to play when he clearly wasn't healthy.

This is not their first blown medical diagnosis. They have a decade long history of God awful medical care of players.

[Kobblehead]

They cleared him to play because he's in playable condition.

There is zero structural damage to Fultz's shoulder. Having soreness or a muscle imbalance is not an injury. It's an ailment, at best. Something a player can work through with very basic rehab stretches.
