The Garden's Antiquated Floor
Injuries...all season summed up in one word.
Maybe it's the Garden floor?:shrug:
I wonder if anyone has mentioned or inquired about this.
There was a similar issue with turf at certain football stadiums; guy's kept getting hurt.
And yes they only play half of their games there, but that's enough considering practice etc...
Think about all the Knick knee injuries we've witnessed such as Barron Davis and Shump from last year. Shump although in MIA, his injury from a minor jump or cut to Davis non-contact related blowout.
I'm curious to know if someone has questioned this.
My next theory is the sneakers. Perhaps putting on a new pair (not broken in) every game has an effect? And I agree the medical staff needs an assessment.
The bottom line is this no longer seems to be a coincidence. 3 bigs on limited time all with foot injuries. WTF?
Melo hurt knee... STAT hurt knee...
I'm sure you have more to add to that list from years past that I can't recall (besides Houston).
