guys take it from me please...I was with a good friend of mine who ruptured their achilles. I took care of them until they could walk again and its not what you think its is...I had extensive conversations with their doctor...
First of all, do you have any idea how strong that tendon is? You have to view this differently...when my friend had the surgery
the doctor did over 300 stitches...Let that sink in guys 300...I know he looks weak hoping around like that :lol:
but it's only because it needs to heal first-before he can put weight on it. Wait till he tries to put pressure on that foot for the first time- he will probably think he's never going to play again...all of this worry is "mental". It's about what KD's idea of this injury is
-what our idea of this injury is-when the bottom line is- he didn't get his foot amputated- he can come back from this-but he has to
believe it and go through the grind of it and complete the process with the discipline and repetition- something my friend could not do...

Look the reason that I believe KD can come back strong from this- is because another great player did it (Dominick Wilkins) and I believe
KD has the mental make up to believe that he can do it and the mental make up to put the work in! He's done it all his life...

Thats all it takes to get almost anything you want accomplish -PERIOD!

Bro, people not really up on the power of the subconscious but this is clearly that. He can’t listen to the doubters and what people think. He has to know as soon as it happened that he would get back to himself. There’s going to be ups and downs but he has to tell himself he will be back better than ever. The fact that he was in a good mood after the injury is a good sign. Dude been a fighter his whole life.

I still think there's a decent chance we get KD, especially with the Lakers opening up that extra spot, Kyrie could go to LA and leave KD stranded over here

I havent believed KD to the Nets from the start. I think Kyrie is desperately trying to convince him to sign there but there just isnt much of a reason for him to do that. Dude has all of his outside of basketball business ventures in NYC and hes gonna sign with the Nets and become hated in NYC? i just dont see it

*intense exhale*, you're wrong, and let me tell you why you're wrong.

I have numerous sources. Some telling me that KD wants the Knicks. Some telling me that he wants the Nets. It just so happened, my most recent source, said the Nets.

Media-wise, it's a lose-lose for the Knicks. They sign Durant, they just signed an injured player. If they don't, they just got embarrassed by letting the Nets get him.

That's why if Woj isn't breaking actual news, he's really not worth putting stock into.

the bold was a perfect moment that you highlighted! I thought that picture that he posted in the hospital bed was symbolic of your theme here. Thats when I was a believer...That moment and finding out that he went out on that floor risking injury made me do a 180 on KD coming here...If you check my posts I have only had interest in going after Giannis- I wanted to waive noah for that very reason...anyway back to KD...You see it...
