And by "bust", you obviously mean continuing at our .857 post trade win %, right?

Maybe? But that draft spot…

Need to fronload wins for that inevitable Kyrie/Luka "injury" stretch.

Playoff positioning for the win!

Seems in the age of parity more is falling on star players who get paid bigly.
They put on epic performances then break down?
Embiid hangs 72 then does what he does usually by seaons end. Break.
Luka hangs big numbers, is banged up.
KAT seems to be hanging after his 62 virtuoso performance!
OG plays big minutes, then the elbow flairs up misisng games.

Does the 65 game thing for awards which leads to big money and bonuses fueling players staying on the court more?
OG up for a big contract, don’t think he is not trying his best to earn it.

Ultimate trap game. Also Charlie Brown and Jacob Toppin should get time in this game and some rest given to the regulars. Maybe sit Jalen

Meniscus injury. My understanding - and please someone correct me if I am off - is that if you cut out the damaged meniscus, maybe that is a 4-6 week recovery depending on how bad the damaged area. If you try to repair the meniscus (ie. sew it back on so that you still have padding in your knee), recovery is more in the 2-4 month timeline?

Is that right? And of course if you are removing the damaged meniscus (the short timeline route), you are permanently taking away padding inside the knee which is very very very not good for a 7 foot behemoth.

I don't remember the exact time periods but I remember cutting out means you can comeback during the season and repair basically means the your season is over. The youtube doc that cover sports covered this a long time ago but my memory is bad.

Baskeball players usually just cut it out but you are setting yourself up for hell down the road. Microfracture seemed promising but the cartilage that grew back was not the same as what is normally there. What grew back was not good enough to stop knee pain. This is why they stopped doing that.

You can certainly ask but that is not what you will get
