This is why roster depth is so important to not lose sight of for front offices
Clippers have hella depth and it’s not about to matter. I disagree, if ur star goes down you’re going to lose anyway
Depth is irrelevant to stars. You not having MVP type players just sitting on the bench.
@@zbt62 I was just about to say that. It's kinda true but you can't really win a playoffs series without your best player(s) no matter how deep the team is.
depth is only important to not completely fall off the standings during the regular season if a star gets hurt. if that happens in the playoffs, youre just done
Warriors only win the finals because of their depth last year. So I like this perspective.
Availability being the best ability has never been a joke. Literally doesn't matter how talented you are or how good you are if you simply aren't available to be put on the court when your team needs you. Literally what's happening with PG, Kawhi, Giannis, etc right now. Teams are on the verge of elimination because their stars haven't been available.
What does this have to do with ability? Most of these are freak injuries. Wtf are you on about?
@@Davos-st8ok the point is that you can’t use your talents if you can’t actually play that’s it.
@@Davos-st8ok Did you even read my comment or understand the saying?
@@Davos-st8ok availability. A very important ability to have.
@@-13eNnY- its still stupid how much people fixate on it. Freak injuries like these shouldnt impact how you view players. Plus most of the time people say availability is the ability is when comparing 2 guys with vastly different talent levels. Like it literally doesnt matter if someone like donovan mitchell or devin booker is more available than kawhi or embiid, because its just impossible for the former to be #1 options on a championship team. The best ability is ability
Watching you makes me want to be a doctor.
go for it man, maybe one day you’ll be a sports medicine dr
My name is Dr. Pepper
Love it!!!
@@BrianSuttererMD love your content bro. Thanks for being you
Honestly if I was driven enough to study medicine, I'd see myself in sports medicine
Really enjoyed this overview of the anatomy and biomechanics of this rash of injuries. Like you mentioned, the NBA is such a star driven league, so the injuries to big name players always has such a profound effect on things.
Basketball injuries are often the result of falling at the wrong time in the wrong place, I guess with ten massive people without protective equipment in a highly confined space moving vertically and horizontally that will happen frequently enough.
If we compare the NBA nowadays to what it was 10, 20 or 30 years ago we can notice that the amount of injuries to players these days is way much more... And I remember watching a video discussing this and mentioning 2 key points.. The amount of games that players are going through before entering the NBA whether its in high school or college has increased significantly compared to previous generations so their careers are hampered by injuries as they get older.. second point is the way basketball is being played.. the extreme and quick lateral movements that the players are doing throughout the games is really putting much tension on their bodies and increasing the chances of getting injured.
I think hockey playoffs are similar to your comment about basketball playoffs: injuries influence it a lot.
A lot of athletes play through injuries for a chance at bringing home the pinnacle trophy of their leagues, and we only find out later that they were playing through injuries.
I'm sure that thought of "can they play through it" is in the back of every team's mind once playoffs come.
It's amazing what some injuries hockey players play thru the playoff with every year there's a few guys that are out there basically on one leg
@@Smart-Towel-RG-400 yea as long as the injury isn’t stopping you from running, most people can still hoop
and the fact that NHL teams only have to release that an injury is either an "upper body" injury or a "lower body" injury makes it much easier for them to disguise the severity of an injury and have a player force their way through it
Love the vids doc!! Just finished taking the Step1 exam, one step closer to my goals. Loved watching your videos and gradually becoming better able to understand the MSK details as I reviewed over the last 2 months. Keep up the great videos you're an inspiration to many!
The issue really comes down to pace I think. The more possessions you get, the more you're going up and down the floor. It adds to the wear and tear. In the 90s - early 2010s, the pace was much slower and you saw far less of these injuries. The big ones were Penny, D-Rose, Robinson, and Hill, but all of them were playing basically 40 minutes a game and 80 games per season before their injuries.
These days, you see guys playing a lot less and getting injured more frequently, but I think it's the pace, not really the minutes or amount of games.
It could be a factor, but I don’t think it’s the only one. In the 1960s, the pace of the game was faster than even today and players hardly got injured
@@cfnretro6448 True. Maybe there were less injuries then cause you had way less players, way less elevation and speed. That may be part of it too. The pace now is pretty close to back then but guys are jumping higher, moving faster, putting more stress on their knees and ankles. It’s a recipe for more injuries.
@@THE_BEAR_JEW they are not jumping higher , moving faster. its the same as before. Alimentation plays a part and also Lifting weights and not using your body as one.
@@para97v Depends on what you're talking about. I was referring to Nageyo Adam's comment on the 1960s compared to now. In the 1960s you didn't have guys jumping like Dr. J, Dominique, Jordan, Vince Carter, Ja Morant, etc. Guys weren't moving like D-Rose, Iverson, Murray. Guys got more explosive as time went on because they actually became full time athletes.
If you're talking about the 90s-2010s to today, I do agree on that.
@@THE_BEAR_JEW how do you know they werent jumping that high? People werent slow before lmao. People were faster ! Humans used to move more than nowadays people move less even athletes. So how can they be quicker and more explosive now if people used to move more before in general?
Hey Brian, I absolutely love your videos! So much value! Playing sports forces me to better understand the body & injuries. I love your channel & content for that reason. Just curious though, do you just cover the injuries of sports or do you actually a fan the as well? If so what sport you enjoy the most? Thank you!
Awesome evaluation and analysis. I think there is significant value in these types of videos. The wagering market has tight margins. Knowing when people will play and / or to
What capacity is HUGE! You need someone to grab the video content and then you do your assessments - if you’re not already.
Love your videos. It'd be great to see explanations of hockey injuries-- "upper body/lower body" is all they ever tell us
Great job as always Doc!
Hi Brian.... great stuff as always!
At around 3:55 you said you thought it was meniscus or cartilage. Aren't they the same? If not, please explain.
Thanks!
Different. Meniscus is made up of a different type of cartilage than what’s on the joint surface.
I hope the boys at the Pat McAfee show get you on at some point. I feel like it’d be a fun conversation/listen.
I think Brian has said that he reached out to him previously.
Plus he studied at IU!
Will be fun to talk about injuries on such a bro-show?
@@DrPhill96 absolutely. They’ve talked about concussions and the things that the league has tried to do to improve upon player safety. It would be cool to hear their thoughts and questions on player safety, injuries, and load management.
Great video Doc! This one was super interesting for me cause i been wondering why is there so many injuries this post season. Thank you again for the effort trying to explain things as clearly as possible for those who are not into the medical field like me 🙌🙌🏀🏀
Seems to me something is wrong with training methods, endurance methods, treatment, or some combination, in the aggregate - not necessarily on these injuries really. And also something REALLY needs to change with youth basketball because AAU absolutely runs dudes into the ground at a really young age. Guys get to the NBA with more wear and tear, more miles than ever - as if they'd already been pros for 5-10 years.
The point about "who is the best team" is absolutely true though. Phoenix for instance in their time with CP3 has only played 2 teams with a fully intact starting lineup - Dallas and Milwaukee. That's it. Every other team they've played has been missing significant contributors.
game also has changed drastically. in the past there was a lot of stationary play and spot up guys and 1 on 1 defense. now its basically 5-6 rotations per posession on defense and multiple pick and roll actions on offense every play with switching, preswitching, staggered screens and so on which leads to players having to close out to different shooters 2-3 times on a single play sometimes. that means a lot of short sprinting and stopping and turning direction on the spot which is just way more wear and tear on the body.
@@peterpan3022 Also absolutely true. Spot on
@@peterpan3022 the pace of the games has increased, but look at Westbrook, he has 7 seasons playing 80+ games, and there's no player that plays with the same pace and intensity like him, these players just need to hit the gym and lift iron. It's just that the more money they make the more spoiled and pampered they become.
Tim grover knows the answer. Physios of nba team and snc didnt like the answer. Load management bs. If players want to rest and not play 82 games then take a paycut its that simple. Players want to protect their body, then owners need to protect their investment too.
@@huntermach7356 “Just lift, bro.” That might be the laziest take I’ve seen in this. So, you’re going to tell me that players like Kawhi aren’t hitting the gym? Kawhi Leonard is secretly one of the strongest guys in the NBA for his height and weight. Yet, he still gets injured.
Dwight Howard, same thing. But we know his injury history.
yo your room looks dope ! good to see you back
Great análisis Doc. Keep it up.
Awesome vid doc. Love how you elaborated on the difference of each injury. It's really annoying when someone says "I've been through that injury before, it's not a big deal. You can play through it. I returned after a few months and was good to go etc etc" also a question i hope you can share something about it. Few times years ago, it has been said that Kawhi's knee injury is degenerative in nature. Meaning he won't be the same again? Kobe had this marrow transplant for his injury he got it done in Russia or something. Do you think that can help guys like Kawhi or even Derrick Rose? Don't know much about these since I just picked them all around the internet lol
Thanks as always Doc Brian …❤😊🎉
I've never seen so many tall players fall every time they shoot the ball. It's insane! Over 6'6 ft tall and on the ground more than a football player. Smh
They're ridiculously tall as you noted, they're moving very very quickly, and getting bumped by other huge people in mid air while focusing on the rim and not their landing spot... if you have a tall, heavy, fast moving player going for a somewhat uncontrolled landing, often the worst thing you can do is try to stick the landing on two feet, rather the absorbing the crash on your back or side and rolling with momentum
Exactly why. This is the highest level of basketball. These athletes are tall heavy players jumping high and moving fast, if you know a little about Physics, these movements will produce a lot of force. Landing on your feet will take a toll on your lower body especially if these landings are awkward. This has been a thread in basketball after what happen to D. Rose's knees. Players deliberately fall to avoid huge amount of force load on their knees. A lot of high school coach teach this to young players.
@ThuggzBunney I get it, but these dudes are falling on shots that involve little to no contact. It's like a habit for them to fall
@@julienalexander6113 Because the moment they don't fall properly, it could be even worse. Y'know the saying, 'the bigger they are the harder they fall'. For short kings falling isn't much of an issue until you get older and your hip starts giving out. But for tall players moving with mass and having feet in odd angles (where you could trip someone), falling improperly can hurt not only on impact, but the limbs that want to keep the body stable and falling in a bad angle.
We need a vid on how you became a sports doctor low key wanna do that career fr
First step: Speak English, not in slang
@@Stupid_dumbass_moron You know how languages and words are formed right?
@@Stupid_dumbass_moron first step don’t tell me how to talk mf i comment however i want to foh tweakin bruh like you my father or something 😂
I consistently wonder if load management, or in the case of football players missing the pre season, can actually make some players more prone to injury. I trust in house medical and conditioning staff when it comes to getting the body ready, but there's more to it. Sports at this high of a level ask players to make a lot of abnormal body movements that take practice. Players need practice falling, landing awkwardly, cutting, and dodging other players. If you don't practice these movements, they're the kind of thing that can lead to an injury.
i applied to be a doctor and they asked what my credentials were , i said i didn’t need any cause i learn everything from you 💯
Hey Brian, speaking of ACL, in your experience, do high level athletes who get an ACL recon usually opt for an artificial draft or a draft harvested from the athlete's hamstring tendon? Thanks
Wow this was an excellent video! Love the content of lately
Great breakdown as usual. From my perspective it looks like Embiid's injury happened the moment he hit the ground, his backside was against the stanchion and not the ground which gave room for the knee to bend outwards, and you do see it bending outward slightly during the replay and Embiid's eyes shuts in painin that moment.
I don’t remember who made the video about it but they compared the amount of games the average nba player had played by their 5th season or something.
With his young these new players starts training they have played like 700 basketball games by the time they join the nba
Where as players from the 80s and 90s didn’t hit the milestone until there 10th season in the league.
These players have so much wear and tear in their bodies before they enter the nba it’s insane.
As you said, it's difficult to come up with an exact reason, but I'd suspect a combination of factors: 1) eliminating back to backs leaves fewer long rest periods during the season, 2) the pace of play is far higher than a decade ago, and we're seeing high speed plays more frequently, and 3) medical staff (rightly so) is being more conservative with injuries than before, not allowing players to "play through" injuries as they may have in years past.
People like to bring up Kawhi and his load management, but fail to recognize the scheduling. Clippers have literally been dealt with some of the worse schedules. Leading at some point in back to backs. Having a HISTORIC december schedule. While other teams benefit from playing versus teams on back to backs. More rest, and the difficulty of schedule. This is not the first season I've noticed.
Kinda ironic since the high pace is something you always see in the regular season, even from the 80s to the 2000s where the spacing wasn't as opened up. But the playoffs is where you need your stars and it benefits them because teams are playing per match ups so defensive intensity can get higher. And the best offenses has been proven to be played on the half court. In the case of Kawhi however his injury history has always been nagging even with his high profile championship run back in 2019. It just doesn't help that helping preserve Kawhi has become more difficult, but the same for PG as he gets older in his 30s. Since his trade from the Thunder where he played 79 and 77 games respectively, he hasn't been able to hit those in a single season he's been with the Clippers.
Load management will not prevent injuries, all it takes is one game. This is why I will never agree with load management. If you're gonna get hurt, you're gonna get hurt. If you're someone like Anthony Davis or Kawhi Leonard, load management isn't really helping you.
Injuries will happen. Sitting out a week isn't gonna prevent you getting hurt in the very next game you play.
While I agree, AD has pretty bad luck and Kawhi has a condition he legitimately has to manage
Exactly so if they’re 100% guaranteed to get injured they wanna play in as few games as they need to so they can try to make it through the playoffs healthy. I’m not saying I necessarily agree with it, but they have a reason for doing it
Im pretty sure most $100million+ nba teams medical staff know what they are doing.
As a trained phyisotherapist it is my duty to let you know that what you are saying is just 1000% incorrect.
Literally every parameter in their body is monitored by a trained medical team worth a lot of money. A day "rest" is never a day "rest" but a day of stability training (or whatever the athlete is dealing with at that moment) trying to decrease the risk of injury. Load management is absolutely vital for athletes. Normal people (not athletes) usually get injuries by being to weak and performing physical activity out of nothing - rest will only do more harm for you true. BUt for an athlete, it's the other way around.
I agree with load management. The results aren't always there since it always focuses on the top players of the game and their injury cases can be unique. However load management does not prevent a player with a nagging injury from being injury free in the playoffs like Kawhi. Remember he was dealing with a leg injury back in his championship run in 2019.
Star players are more brittle than ever despite all the accommodations.
Please do a video on Gabe Landeskog's freak knee injury stemming from the bubble in 2020, and one about the hit on Cogliano that broke his C5 vertebrae, and the fact that he came back and played in that game with it broken.
ESPN should hire you as an injury report expert, not only that but you seem to know your sports which is a plus.
He’s not woke enough to be there puppet
Love your videos!
Brian's videos makes you want to study sports medicine just for fun😂😂
Well, I'm not a doctor but I play one on TV 📺 and let me tell you this, it ain't all what it seems. 😶
NBA should quite honestly either reduce the amount of games per season or start playing 10 min quarters similar to FIBA instead of 12 min. They need some kind of a way to reduce the injuries that are happening by reducing the amount of load and wear and tear the players are going through every season not to mention that teams should play their stars players less mpg in the reg season and focus more on depth of the team.
Honestly I'd be down for more a more 'organized' schedule that gives relevance to parts of the season. Division games don't matter unlike the NFL and other leagues because it doesn't have much of a consequence in terms of playoffs. People get through 2 months of the start of the season and after that teams are planning to fix their rosters for the playoffs by the deadline, or go on a fire sale to be 'quietly uncompetitive' to finish the season. TV money is great and all but the owners still win out more in the end.
I think this is a recurring theme. It is just brought to spotlight with the rise of social media. Players these days are huge assets that owners would not let them play through injuries. I remember a guy from the Celtics in like 70s or 80s playing with a neck brace. I remember stories of Zeke playing through a badly swollen ankle in the playoffs (he barely can fit a shoe with it). Injuries has always been a part of the game, players just have gone up in value. You can't blame the owners too, I would rather have stars playing long term than risking to aggravate an injury.
Kawhi's muscles are too powerful for his connective tissues. This is the problem with ectomorphs training to make themselves extremely strong and powerful. Their connective tissues can't absorb the much higher forces. If an ectomorph makes himself 3X more powerful via power lifting and weight training then power lifting and weight training are the only activities he is ready for.
I don't know if that's true but it does make a lot of sense. From my own "I'm not comparing myself to Kawhi" experience, I took creatine for a month and went from 170 to 190 and almost immediately I developed plantar fasciitis. I always believed that my fascia couldn't support the added load.
There has to be a reason for Kawhi's career injury problems. And unlike what one unintelligible commentator said above, it has nothing to do with him being weak, or not hitting the gym hard enough. I live in Toronto and saw firsthand how he single-handedly changed the culture of a club that was mentally weak and turned them into champions. Other than Michael Jordan I've seen few people lead a team like him. I don't believe for a second that Kawhi is weak. But physically unbalanced? Perhaps.
@@stevencooke6451 Kawhi getting hurt in game 4 of the Philly series was a blessing in disguise. Kawhi could not play with all out 100% power the final 15 playoff games. This preserved his connective tissues. Kawhi hobbled around at 80% or 90%. This is what allowed him to lead all players in minutes played in the 2019 playoffs.
You should do a video of the Andrew Cogliano (Colorado Avalanche player) hit and how he was allowed to return to play with a fractured vertebrae
A fracture like that feels like a jolt of electricity right at spot of the injury every time you touch or tap the finger tip. It sucks how much that little bone can impact most of what you do on a daily basis.
If this is going on like this in the future, they need to take a serious look on the total games in the regular season. Shortening it generates more value to actually win a game. Maybe a mix between now and in the Euroleague?
The body was meant to move. I am learning that as I am almost four years into a sedentary field of work. Movement supports healing. Who knew?
Fasting is huge too. Ppl in general eat too much and too often. We have to get back to ancestral eating habits the way our bodies were designed and created to deal with food. Eat whole, natural foods. Stay away from processed foods, refined sugars and highly processed seed oils and then incorporate a fasting program. It's amazing how the body heals itself when we stop eating the way we have been for the past 70 or so years compared to the thousands before that.
It happens every frigging playoffs...some big name or names always go down.
Yeaaaaaah I don't think load management is working lol
I had a Tufts Fracture on my thumb and it hurt like hell. My thumb nail has a huge dip in it. Been that way for 25 years now.
I think the NBA has wayy too many games in a season. 82 regular season games!?!? That's friggin nuts and stupid!!! No need for that. Cut that down and maintain player health
But the greedy azz owners wouldn't do that.
I really think we've reached a point in sports where injuries to top players are literally inevitable throughout any given sport, especially in the playoffs when the competition is at its fiercest.
From the front office, to coaching and game-planning, to the players themselves, everything is maxxed out at this point, after decades and decades of trying to find advantages. "Load management" is another idea in a long line of them, but it's futile, because as you say in the end, it's a matter of luck, a crap shoot. Sitting extra minutes at the end of blowouts or getting a game or two extra off at the end of the season isn't going to prevent most of the injuries we've seen so far this year.
In pro basketball the injuries are somewhat concerning, especially for the young players coming in. There have been studies shown that prospective basketball players who play the game all year around seem to pick up their share of injuries in comparison to those who take a break and pursue other sports. That gets carried over to the pros where their bodies are probably more prone to basketball related injuries. Let alone the freak athletes who aren't taught how to fall properly. It doesn't matter how modern the medicine is or how amazing the sports science can be. When these young athletes are set up to break (and in some cases in a really hard way) by the time they become pros. If anything its allowed someone like Anthony 'Mr. Glass' Davis to prolong his amazing career to 10 years despite his injury history and moving around with his bio mechanics. Where in a time before guys like him may not made it their second contract.
Factors of Nba injuries now:
1.Lack of physicality during regular season so during playoffs they are not used to it and therefore they are not playing careful
2. More ball possessions now due to shot clock reset if its your ball is only 14 seconds now so the speed of the game is faster. Thats why players gets tired and sometimes it causes misshops on both ends.
Doc, you are the man!
Injuries SUCK!
These athletes train AND play hard.
THAT’s why we enjoy seeing them ball-out in the moment all season long. Get well to all who are injured or hurt.
🙏🙏
Kobe had a fracture in his index finger and he learned to shoot the ball differently to keep playing. He scored 36 points in that broken finger game?
But wasn't efficient at all since that injury clearly affected his shot even after adjusting
Kobe was a whole different player who could also liked making higher difficulty shots in the playoffs. He had various ways to beat his defender and get buckets. We'll have to see if Fox is anywhere on that level as a shot maker.
As a kid I vividly remember Kobe playing with a broken index finger Can you make a video on that? I feel like would be very interesting
Yah, fractured in 2 places. And Curry did it in 2017. Both still maintained a super high level of play , too.
No
I believe the amount of grip and sticky enhancements that these players have under there shoes is a contributing cause of injuries
Thank you sir! I was about to ask for an Embiid video! Read my mind
Something I’ve stumbled upon lately. I wonder if it’s prevalent in the NBA. Specifically the knee injuries, especially with the increased speed of the game exacerbated with league being 3pt happy. Are players neglecting an area of the muscles that support the knees?? The tibialis and back side of knee. Could nordics and tibialis exercises significantly help with the knees?
Can you do a video on Seamus Coleman's knee injury in the Everton vs Leicester City game and explain how on Earth he didn't damage his ACL??
Does anybody think that players are taking too much time off? I heard someone mention how 20 years ago guys were getting injured less but were doing a lot more to stay in shape during the season and off-season. You'd think injuries would go down as medical technology advances. I do understand that the pace has increased which is more game mileage and more opportunities for injuries. It may be recency bias but it for sure does feel like over the last decade since teams really started load managing that players are hurt more consistently
I don't know that the pace of play has increased compared to the late 70's through the 80's, and those guys flew commercial flights with less time off between games as a result. Most players still managed to play 80+ games with no "game management". Weird.
Play style changed a lot. Lot more cutting and quick shift. Quick recovery to 3 pt line. Players today have much more mileage. And that is not counting their AAU wear. Also, shoes literally has evolved to having no ankle support unlike the past.
Also phones and addictive social media/entertainment = worse sleep = more injuries.
It's often due to a few things- as others have mentioned the quick cutting and dynamic movement in general nowadays are tough on the joints, but you also have to consider the athleticism doesn't help a whole lot either- F=M*A, so if players are especially more athletic, increasing acceleration, the landing after a jump, or stopping on a dime are going to be worse and worse. Also, nowadays kids are starting pretty intense practice as early as grade school and junior high, so keep in mind that the average 18 year old today has the same mileage on their body that players like bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain did by the time they were retiring.. literal children starting 2-a-days and weight training to be Olympic level athletes before they even finish puberty, it takes a toll...
@@yomomshouse100 that's actually a great point and makes a lot of sense
5:10 Cam Johnson saw his life flash before his eyes
Hey Doc! Please Take a look at Seamus Coleman’s injury from Everton. Thank you for everything 🙌
The thing is they coast through the season..they dont practice anymore just walkthroughs...then on top of it this load management issue ..just like anything muscle has memory and the playoffs are played at at different speed than the season..so therefor there bodys aka muscles arent used to odd tweeks at a faster pace..thats why jordan had to put muscle on and then the very important thing he practiced like it was a game full throttle so his body was ready aka muscle memory🎯🎯💯💯
Doc are you pro or anti load management?
I’m getting a degree on anatomy thanks to you bro
Don’t know if you saw the football ( England ) lot of what looks like broken bones the Everton game and two in the Leeds match maybe worth having a watch love the video (this weekend) 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Can you explain what's happening with Tajae Spears? How does having arthritis and bone spurs help make up for the instability of not having an ACL?
Dam you called it about Leonard!
Athletic trainer here. 100% agree, many of those injuries are fluky and happen in basketball, especially as we see more intensity in the playoffs.
However, I do have two theories regarding basketball players and the apparent increase in injury rates:
One, these athletes and teams are so focused on "load management" during the season, so I'm wondering if there is a deficit in what their bodies can handle and what is required to get the job done in the playoffs.
Second, related to load management, but something far more insidious and far-reaching: our youth sports system is broken. These basketball players have likely been playing basketball non-stop since they were five, seven, nine, or eleven. I don't have the data on this, but I'm just curious if these players are also single-sport or multi-sport athletes. Regardless, it seems that we're living in an age where basketball is being played year-round, and injuries happen when players reach college and the NBA.
I am genuinely surprised you only have 700k followers when you should have 10 million no doubt. Keep it up boss
The workload and the schedule absolutely effect these injuries, all of them. Just from a psychological perspective having to focus takes a lot of your mental energy, same goes for media work, and everything else these players do. While you might think these injuries aren't caused by lack of concentration, you have to know that a lot of the time it's just tiredness that takes a bit away from a player, and they forget how to fall for a moment.
Fewer games and off the court work would help a lot.
You can even see it with that layup in the first video. Dude looked exhausted
Hell I've seen some folks that get seriously injured at physical labor work because of general fatigue.
Please explain Jaylen brown facial fracture and the mask he is now wearing. I was shocked to find out the facial muscles can suffer concussions so a lot of pressure must have been applied similar to a car accident or violence
Greg oden should have known about this guy back in 07
Without watching the whole video, seeing previous and other comments, and hearing things in the past… Ive heard two things I found to be interesting…
1) Players load managing or not playing at their normal full speed, intensity or minutes, could lead to the same, if not more injuries. Ive heard this while people argue for harder practices and training camps both in Football and Basketball.
2) Alot of these athletes are too strong, big and explosive for their bodies. This seems believable especially considering how some of these players probably exert so much force on any given play, their bodies just cant keep up with it. Especially in sports like Football. You have 225lb physically gifted freaks, but their tendons or ligaments or whatever, are still going to be under high stress especially for how huge those people are.
American Football is a bit different I feel. Players have designated offense/defense roles so they aren't on the field 40+ minutes at the same time as it is in the NBA. Also with basketball the play style is more demanding for consistent lateral movement on offense or defense. Not all football athletes are demanded to have that skillset. The only consistent thing with American football is size/bulk does help in the durability of taking physical bumps all season long (excluding things that could induce CTE or what not). And some of the non glamorous positions like special teams can help an athlete play for a long time.
Hey Brian idk if you saw Mattias Janmark on the Edmonton Oilers fall last night but one of the nastiest and most unfortunate falls I've seen. Wouldn't mind seeing your breakdown of everything that happened within the brain when this happened.
Yo doc … u have this nice ass drill beat 😂😂 from New York or chi-town?
Imagine Dr. Sutterrer is your actual doctor in real life.
Edit: look at the first comment under this. LMAOOOOLOFLSKCJEIX I LOVE TH-cam
In the middle of your appointment he runs out to record another sports injury video lol
@@GameTime-yj6qv LMAO
damn you called it on the meniscus
I wonder if the De'Aaron Fox injury is a mallet finger fracture. I've broken my index finger in a very similar fashion, and that's what it was. If so, then it's more annoying than particularly painful.
Thank you for break down for me 😊😊😊
NBA teams thought that playing less will preserve their players. It is very rare now to see players playing complete 82 games.
I really thought you were gonna talk about load management
Thanks boss
Would you consider covering hockey injuries?
Best doc on TH-cam
Risk management, in terms of avoiding injury, is another skill that comes out in tournaments.
Sometimes best to see what the second string players can do
PLEASE do a video on djibril cisse, he had 2 horrific broken legs for Liverpool and France. Would really like to see your opinion on how they happened
Can you explain broken nose on Ryder and why it did not stop bleeding even up until post conference interview
Let’s go Heat 😏
Great content as usual
I think they need to start playing on a wrestling mat floor that would cut down on alot of these injuries.
Any opinion on Jimmy Butler???
I’m here waiting for the AD analysis update 😢
2:38 it shows Ayton knee hitting the side of Kawhi’s knee.
Kawhi Leonard has a torn meniscus. Can you go into detail with that please doc?
@Brian Sutterer MD
Do a video on Eli Tomac in Supercross. Torn Achilles
Hockey is similar to a degree. Rarely do you see the best team during the regular season win the championship. The playoffs are about staying healthy and who has the most depth.
Literally if the players just practice often then injuries wouldn’t happen as much but too much training is bad too so I say 50/50
Add Julius Randle to the list.
This year still might have a chance to be one of the deepest, most competitive playoff fields since the NBA went to 16+ teams in the playoffs and certainly the most since the play-in, but injuries took the steam out of the LAC/PHX series and had some palpable but unquantified effect on MIL/MIA.
They don't lift enough weights and take too many breaks.
You gotta keep that engine (body) running or it will break.
Looks like load management is working. Keep shortchanging the fans during the season nba.
please do not accept any TV deals with ESPN or other legacy sports media if it means you can’t continue to do these when you are ready to do them.
Thought this was a JxmyHighroller video from the title 😂
