Well, Ortiz fucked the right kingpin’s wife, I’ll give him that.

Not sure I agree. Pretty good hit team value there for $8k.

In a media frenzy this complete there is a striking lack of attention to the parallel storyline with Kawhi and the role of social media.

Well, you do your thing. I’ll just point at the very real limitations of Western medicine (do you not have a casual working definition of this term?) that largely ignores diet, stress reduction, circulation and stretching, and the impact of chemical pollutants and food additives when trying to solve medical problems.…

Exactly. Durants IG kind of ruined it for the bloggers. No drama, just a piece of bad luck.

This is helpful background until the part where you seem to advocate for not sharing potentially important information. Western medical science is not known for seeing the whole dynamic system and understanding reliances as you said. My recent work with my orthopedist just confirmed this. An MD not discussing a…

It probably doesn't work like you say with teams responsible for protecting him from injury. He has outside doctors and ultimately the team can't force him to play, as Kawhi showed.

But I’m curious in the sportsworld what kind of recs you get if Durant doesnt bounce back and you ended up putting an org on the hotseat for potentially ending a Hall of Famer’s career.

There were multiple MRIs, Durant has his own doctors, and Achilles injuries are the single most terrifying prospect for a basketball player. There is no way on earth this was an Achilles from the start and somehow was hidden from Durant. Just no way.

I was with you until the last sentence. The doctors are not in a position to say play or sit once he heals to a certain point. Clearly he got to that point unless you think JFK was a cover-up and Kibrick did the moon landing. Once he is cleared, the team would never shut him down and Durant himself would would be much…

Headline sounds either like a Politico headline about the Wall or a romantic love triangle.

Run away on foot? They had a getaway motorcycle, dude! Only partial credit because it crashed within a block or so and was driven by a fan of the target of the hit.

Should I ever be the target of an assassination attempt, I would like to request this hit team, including, of course, the Venezuelan and the Surgeon.

You see, now you’re hurting this long recovering Knicks fan. But it’s James Dolan’s team so .... let it fly.

I know but it’s still weird.

Thank you. I am thinking Kerr was less involved in the minutiae of these discussions so he misspoke. Why would he know the details when he quite literally has zero say in whether KD is cleared?

It was clearly a case of Myers saying he would take the heat. And he had tears to shed on TV of course.

That was Chris Broussard right? Saying the worst case scenario for Durant was the Warriors winning without him. And I though it was a dumb comment at the time but holy shit.

Yeah, that was a weird little sensationalist dig. On a subject that is already dripping with sensation and drama, I might add.

I believe he will be back in time to contribute to a playoff team next year. And he will get multiple max offers this summer.
