Then how come every other guy around his age or older is playing way less minutes?
The difference between 30 and 36 minutes is huge. You basically are increasing injury risk by at least 20%.
20% more floor time means 20% more chances of injury just based on raw numbers. That doesn’t even factor higher injury risk because of over training and fatigue
We know who the teams are playing now.
Suns playing Lakers, Kings/Pels and Boston/Buck. All on the road
Versus
Dallas playing Portland and Utah at home
People are being dishonest if they don’t think Suns have a way tougher schedule next week because they advanced
He was pure excitement in his prime
Suns still lost a HOME GAME. Look at the schedule. They only have 40 home games this year. Every team that didn’t make the tournament has 41 home games
Go look at the schedule. Phoenix only has 40 home games this year. Everyone who missed the tournament has 41
Well some dude here is posting that Book carried and KD couldn’t
I guess the guy averaging 31/7/5 on 53/52/89 shooting splits and playing tremendous defense doesn’t count
What an odd thing to get all worked up about
Suns blessed with TWO number 1s
Book is the truth. Reminds me so much of prime Kobe. Not as good finishing at the rim but better 3 point shooter and shot selection. His passing ability is what really could take him to the highest tier of super stars
1 game versus the worst team in the league
Gordon/Jackson are struggling because they are not getting good looks. Houston wasn’t selling out on Jokic so his teammates can’t get open
This is dumb. How many teams we played had an all star or 2 all stars out every game?
Also helps when teams have to guard KD with 1.5 players at all times
That includes 2 games against the Warriors with Steph. Even though they are 8-9 that isn’t easy games
We still do. A backup PG when Book is resting. Hopefully Beal can play that role
The mindset is take advantage of every situation and maximize your chances of winning. Your mindset obviously hasn’t lead to winning titles
Bro. Please visit a sperm bank ASAP
MJ also took 2 years off before his second 3 peat and 4 years off after his 2nd retirement. MJ was an ironman. But he didn’t play non stop over 18 years
