Google the new load management rule and then go to the images and all the pictures are of Paul George and Kawhi. Why is this? They both played similar amount of games as other stars like Durant, curry, LeBron and ad yet only the clippers get accused of load management. Reporters even disrespectfully asked kawhi what his thoughts were on the new rule, as if he is purposely resting because he doesn’t want to play instead of injuries. Kawhi tore his ACL and pg literally had his leg snapped in half and yet we still expect only them to get up and walk it off likes it fine after a 250 lb man crashes into their legs. Maybe I’m a bit sympathetic to the clippers being a fan of the clippers of the east. But I still think it’s complete bullshit that only these two amazing and glorious stars get blamed for load management after injuries.

    It’s cause most injured stars still play in the playoffs. AD has only missed one playoff game as a Laker. LeBron has missed none. Durant has missed none since recovering from his Achilles injury. Steph hasn’t missed any in a few years.

    Compare that to kawhi and PG and you got your answer
