Quote:
Last year, it happened to me. I missed last three games of the Houston series. It goes to Game 7. We barely get out of that series. And now they’re looking at me like, “When are you coming back?” And I had a fractured leg. But it’s being put out there like, “You’ve got a bone bruise.” I’m like, “Nah, it’s fractured.” So, I’m fighting with the team. I’m fighting with people. I’m fighting with the media. And then my teammates ask me every day, “How you feeling? How you feeling?”

So, with K, he’s getting it from everywhere, too.

What do they always say in sports? “Oh, he’s a tough guy. He plays through injuries.” You’re validated as an athlete if you win a championship or how tough you were. If you sit out, it’s like, “Ah, he’s not tough.”

Dang! How can you say "One of the best in the world." when describing the training staff when they can't diagnose a broken bone?

Their training staff is either incompetent or they are lying to keep players on the floor. Either way it doesn't look good for the organization.

This article has that story and speculation that the Warriors misled people about the injury to KD and might have really pissed him off:

If Iggy spoke the truth, it would be understandable why KD left the team.

Both were inevitable long before the injury nonsense.
