really chris paul is a huge question mark now? the fact that cp3 came back the same season from his knee surgery tells me all i need to know about the severity of the injury and how he feels about it.
The fact that he came back and played pretty crappy tells you all you need to know?
so that's how youre judging a perennial 20pt/11assist/2.5steals 25 year old player? that he played "crappy" in a whopping 7 games after missing 2 months during the basketball season? cool. thats your prerogative, but to me that's beyond ridiculous.
No, I nowhere said I was judging him based on those #s. I nowhere even gave my own judgment. I was merely pointing out that drawing the positive inference you did from his crappy play was illogical, and your only response was to attack a claim I never made.
how were you not judging him on those numbers? YOU called his play crappy, not me. what is it with you and semantics all the time?
I judged his play in those seven games, yes. When I said I wasn't judging him, I meant I wasn't judging how he'll play in the future--he could be A) great, B) done, or C) somewhere in between. But the fact that he played crappy when returning last year cannot logically reassure you that point A above (that he'll be great again) is what we'll observe--and that's what it seemed you were suggesting. I'll give you a chance to clarify if I misunderstood though.
I have yet to hear one player who lost his career to a torn Meniscus. You are acting as if it was his cartilage that was removed they are two different things. Besides its normal for players to have their knee scoped out now and then to make sure there are no wear and tear debris in the knee. Paul will make a 100% recovery.
His meniscus was removed and he now has less knee stability and bone rubbing on bone. That's not the same as repairing a torn meniscus. I'm not aware of any cases where an NBA player had his meniscus removed and then was fine.
