I had a facebook “Back & Forth” conversation with my youngest SON (Jeremy) recently after “K.D.” tried to come back to play in the NBA Play Offs. My Son, Jeremy, ruptured his Achilles a few years ago, and “Baby Jordan” as he was being affectionately called, was/is never the same type of player. I had told my Son, that “K.D.” would Never, ever be the same…And that 1=One particular Player who I wish that I could remember, as he was being interviewed on a certain Sports Talk Radio Show, said: “K.D.” is always wearing the Ice Packs down around his Ankles and lower areas of his Achilles and NOT up around wear the Warrior’s kept saying the “Calf Strain” should be. That Former NBA Player, said and Knew that “K.D.” had a problem with his Achilles. and As I told My Son, there was a lot of “LYING & Manipulating” going on to “rush K.D.” back wayyyyyy too soon and that putting his Career in Jeopardy was happening…
now, after all sorts of stuff comes out, it will be up to the “NBA PLAYERS ASSOCIATION” to fight for/on behalf of “K.D.” and “ALL Professional Athletes”…see related Massively Important Story (https://sports.yahoo.com/andre-iguodala-broke-leg-last-191505105.html?.tsrc=daily_mail&uh_test=1_15)
Andre Iguodala: I broke my leg last year, but Warriors called it just a bruise
As I told my son, with the modern day medical capabilities, of today, there is Absolutely “ZERO=0” chance that the “Medical Imaging and Scans did “NOT” show the areas of Injury to “K.D.” within the Correct proximity of his Achilles and NOT his calf…”ZERO=0″.
“Some Heads Should Certainly Roll and Get “Chopped off”, whether it being the Warriors Medical Staff, certain personnel who released K.D. to come back, or Warriors Executives, who made the most “UNCARING” decisions to allow K.D. to jeopardize his career. “THAT Decision, should NEVER, have been left UP to K.D….”NEVER, EVER”….
Andre Iguodala: I broke my leg last year, but Warriors called it just a bruise
Now, we see a “Pattern” of total Human/Player neglect and “Greedy” and senseless mentality that has happened with the Warriors and NBA, w/o much Consequences to take their responsibility for these very talented young men’s Athlete’s lives and so WHERE does it go from here??
I can Remember “Kendrick Perkins” making a Statement, also, before K.D. tried to come back…”DON’T DO IT!” (K.P. and K.D., former TEAM MATES and Friends)
THE HUMAN Factor: WE, as people out here in “Spectator Land”, aka “THE PUBLIC”, and “FANS”, and “Some of having Played the Game”, when we always do seem to forget that these Outstandingly Talented Young Men and Women are Still “HUMAN BEINGS”, not Machines, Not Animals, and Yet, WE even “TREAT ANIMALS”, many times Better than we do HUMANS.
Thank GOD, that we do “NOT” just “Shoot the Injured”, as we did many years ago in the old “Westerns”; whenever a Horse became “LAME”, they would simply “Shoot it” to stop the Suffering of the Animal. SOME will get mad at me for still comparing the situation to “PLANTATION/SLAVERY” type Mentality, because These Athletes and Celebrities and Entertainers, even Actors, Actresses, Singers, Song-Writers, Comedians, …All are still, underneath their “Public Lives” are still Human Beings. OK, “YES” they make Millions of $$/Dollars, but they are still “ONLY HUMAN”…
I will be praying for “K.D.” and other Athletes and Celebrities heading Forward, because Understanding this “world of Human Craziness” and “Things are NOT always as they Seem, especially on TV, aka “Programming”,,,
I am “NOT” a fan of Draymond Green’s Type of Play in the Game of Basketball: BUT, the other day, on the “Sports Talk Radio Shows”, Draymond Green was getting “Raked Over the Coals” for making a Public Statement, referring how Some NBA Owners and Organizations still run their operations like “PLANTATIONS” and others have referred to the College and NFL and other Organizations the Same, or Similar in Nature of seeking the “TOTALLY OWN” Humans and People, as back in Slavery days. One can even also Relate that Same American Mentality to “Corporate America” as a whole….Trying to make people “Sign” and engage “NON-COMPETE” and such Type agreements that, seek to NOT even allow a person/Human to go elsewhere to Work, within their Perspective Industries, wellllllll, Let’s Just Say: WE are all Still “HUMAN Beings” and no matter How Talented, the “HUMANISTIC Factors” of us all, sometimes MUST tell THE “TRUE TRUTH” as it really is… “WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING??!!///”
“TRUE TRUTH”; THERE IS ALWAYS WAYS TO MEASURE AND CHECK & FACT CHECK “S_I_”! WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON??!!
