The fans that pay good money to go to games want to see the players they paid to see.

She has a point though. 20yrs from now, after all these guys have retired, let’s see how well they are walking around

@@SteveJones-gz3nd basketball is a low risk sport compared to others my guy. Football has cte and major brain injuries. Combat sports are straight up dangerous. Most basketball players are still mobile when they are done. Hell a lot of them keep playing overseas and with their kids. If MJ Ewing Hakeem etc still play and have basketball camps todays players will be fine. The NBA still offers them medical even after they retire. Remember that health care fraud scandal?

@@Nbajunkie2782 thats not true at all my guy. Years ago, on the show Open Court hosted by Ernie Johnson, EJ asked guys on the panel when they knew it was time to retire. Dennis Scott was trying out for the Bulls because he thought he more left in the tank, but Phil Jackson told him he was done. He said he thanks Jackson because he can walk with no problems and without pain etc… Him saying that suggest to me that he knew/knows retired players that have a hard time getting around because of their playing days. True basketball isn’t as brutal as football or MMA or boxing, but it still takes a toll on players bodies

But if everyone had jugz like her the world would be a much better place! 🔥

​@@SteveJones-gz3ndwho cares. They get paid millions of dollars, Jaylen Brown is gonna to make $305 million dollars when it's all said and done, and you expect people to care that he feels tired of his knee hurts a bit? He gets paid to throw a ball in hoop. Go throw the ball in the hoop.

Because it’s a long season. They are human just like everyone else. I don’t feel like always going to work. Even if I was making millions, I wouldn’t feel like going to work all the time.

@@SteveJones-gz3nd You and I work year round plus any paid vacation or sick pay we may take in between. I'm pretty sure we don't get an offseason. We don't get 5 star hotels for business trips, room service and around the clock care for our bodies, for the job. These guys get almost if not every conceivable perk to go with there generational wealth, and ALL they have to do is show up to work and do something they've been doing since they were a kid, 70-80+ times a year? They've been doing 80+ games since the 60's, when they were flying coach, smoking cigarettes and playing in Chuck Taylors. Most of these young dudes don't even seem to comprehend how blessed and privileged they are.

I love when you ask a player if they'd do good with back in the day rules and alot are all cockey saying they'd dom ina te because shooting wasn't as advanced as it is now with deep 3's. They don't account for how ruthless people were back then. When you had the bad boy pistons literally making you bleed and bruised every single game. Even shaqs era he has stories of popping his elbows out to catch people with his spin and rough them up. Now a days players would be beaten bloody and quit before lasting an entire season back then. Load management is such a joke Ihate it. 65 games is way too generous imo even. sh ould be 70-75. Maybe 72, that gives them 10 games to miss. I understand actual real bad injuries but I'm talking about healthy players just sitting out because they can. Nah. Cut their pay then. You dont want to participate? Ok then you get pay cut. Want your money? fucking play ball.

not the point.

You do realize that all the players have to do is step on the court for like a minute and that counts as a game played. All they are saying is, don’t take the whole game off, if you want to load management then just play a half or reduce your minutes, don’t take off just because you just a little sore or because you don’t feel like it.

@@zacheryseymour7297 Right on my friend, want to know why they dont do that? Stats! Players care way too much about their own stats now so they have to play the entire game or not at all. Half of them even go through warm ups but the actual game? Nahh

@@Nbajunkie2782 absolutely and that’s exactly why the NBA have been going down the drain for the past decade.

They should change contracts to getting paid as you play - you'll be amazed how rarely any of these players take off.

It's 100% his fault

Warriors ? wtf when was the warriors ever accused of load management? That’s that lebron kawhi paul George shit

Pop started that Load Management shite!!!

Dude, people care about their bodies. Let’s see in 20-30yrs from now, when these guys are retired, how well they are moving around

@@SteveJones-gz3nd 250 million dollars. Do u realize how much money that is? To play basketball. Ask pro football players.. what they do just to retain a roster spot. Ask the brick layers, the construction workers, the roofers what they do to make ends meat. I'm sry, I can't agree

Every Athlete should think that way. and they did back in the day. Look at how bad some boxers got like Muhamed Ali. Mike Tyson ain't exactly right in the head. Look at Kareem how he shambles around barely able to walk. That's the price of making that much money. Now a days these kids are so entitled, they want to have a perfect body, retain it and get all this money but they don't want to actually work.

Bro 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

You could also just make it where actual injuries only take half as much, or somet hing. Theres a way to figure it out. maybe make it 60 but only if you're actually injured. Something has to happen with this load management though because it's ridiculous.

They are? No one plays defense out there

@@erichenderson304 many teams still do. The other night, I saw Terrance Mann of the Clippers sprint from the baseline out to the 3pt line to defend a shot. Some players still play defense. But yea, everyone shoots the 3 now, so yea players are covering mode space then they did back in the 80s

Hahaha are you kidding me? Do you how many tens of millions of dollars they are getting to play?? Come on now they can play at least 65 games. If I pay a 100-300 dollars to go to a game and stars are sitting because of load management?? I mean WTF! If they are legit hurt then I understand but other than that they need to play.
