Jared Dudley was on Zach Lowe's podcast this week and he told a story about his knee injury with the Clippers. Basically a year of rehabbing with them and it didn't improve. First thing when he got traded to the Bucks, they recommended working with a trainer, from Los Angeles ironcially, that had him do things kind of like what got Gordon healthy, strengthen surrounding muscles to take pressure off the knee. Within a week he felt back to normal. Having the right training staff and facilities really can make a big difference.

Just thinking about that Dudley/Lowe pod.

It almost feels like they need to move Anderson for a competent guard + wing or 4. I don't think the offense survives long term without him, but they also can't compete for an 8 seed rolling out some of these 2nd units.

Not to sound like a dick, but any trainer, PT, or ortho who DIDN'T recommend strengthening the surrounding musculature had no right to be working in any capacity. That's not exactly some huge breakthrough.
