Our training staff continues to be exceptional at their biggest job, player availability. Keep knocking it out of the park, Aaron.
People will say “yeah they should make players not pull hammys”
But the point is if every injury takes the absolute maximum amount of time to recover….couldn’t literally anyone facilitate that?

Give me a break. Zion is on record as saying he feels great. Not "I'm not feeling right," or "I'm still not 100%." No, he feels great.
I mean that was almost two weeks ago. I'm going to take Zion on his word rather than speculate he is telling them something different behind the scene. Yall have got blinders on if you still think they aren't being overly cautious. I'm not say the overdue return to actions on most of our stars injuries are their fault, I'm not even frustrated with them, I'm frustrated with the training staff.

He was asked if he planned to play in the All Star Game and he responded "If I can, absolutely." Then he was asked how he was feeling to which he responded "I feel great, thanks for asking." It was a polite non-answer.
Then he was asked if things were progressing well to which he responded "Extremely well, things are progressing extremely well."

I tend to recall stating this the day after the injury was announced and people thought I was crazy. I guess as a physical therapist, I'm not so bad at predicting recovery timelines

You have no idea just how truly spot on you are there.
It’s baffling to me why they wouldn’t want to be transparent and give fans realistic expectations. They only ever make it worse by withholding and not being forthcoming.

It's the New Orleans way. They learned from Sean Payton apparently.
I never understood why they were so full of crap about injuries and spare me the competitive advantage junk.

Griff tried being forthcoming about Zion's foot initially and that blew up in his face when the recovery didn't happen like they thought it would. After that fiasco, they are probably not going to give timelines out unless they are certain of them.

They are protecting Zion more than caring about the fans.
When they talked about Dysons injury after the game I pretty much said to myself, "See yah in March Dyson!"
This team easily would win half the games they loss if it werent for injury or coddling, or worse, both.

I mean maybe something came up in the imaging? Isn’t “reevaluation” getting the images back and reviewing them? That would’ve happened today

Dyson has been weirder than zion. We’ve at least heard updates about zion. We haven’t heard a timeline, expectations, or anything about Dyson. He may be out for the season for all we know

First week of March is when I’d put my money on.

Saying before the season that "he'll be ready for the season" is not forthcoming. It was the complete opposite, he was being deceitful. He knew that would make fans think they meant at the start of the season. He worded so he could later say o I didn't mean the start of the season, i just mean this season in general. I like Griff, he gas done an excellent job, but that was used car salesman stuff.

Is he incapable of healing?
He’s like a reverse Wolverine

The “Bounce is Back” Arena Wall

People dog AD for being hurt when he played in double the games of ZW in his 1st 4 years.
