Hi all

No there is again news about Porzingis being injured http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2702647-kristaps-porzingis-leaves-knicks-practice-with-knee-injury-undergoing-treatment?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=programming-league

I'm really concerned about his health, and that he is too injury prone to reach his full potential.

What do you guys think, and do you guys know if it is bad?

Soreness is an injury now?

So you guys are not at all concerned about him being injury prone?

You don't accept that he has a lot of small injuries and several physical issues?

I accept that he's had a lot of small injuries and several physical wishes.

I'm not at all concerned about him being injury prone because it's a waste of my time.

What's going to happen or not is going happen or not.

It is the same knee.
Kristaps Porzingis left Thursday's practice early with a sore right knee.
This is the same knee that bothered him at Eurobasket and he's currently receiving treatment. Porzingis has had trouble staying on the floor in his first two seasons and that's really the only thing holding him back from becoming a first-round pick in fantasy. For what it's worth, coach Jeff Hornacek doesn't think it's serious and expects Porzingis to practice Friday. Sep 28 - 12:29 PM

yeah, you always limp away from practice when it means nothing.

No worries.

He could hop away from practice with his left leg being carried in his right arm and I wouldn't be worried.

I just fear that we put all our eggs in the Porzingis-basket, that might turn out to be a very fragile basket.

I really don't want to do it, but maybe we should cash-in on him as long as his value is so high as it is at the moment.

So you're hoping the other GM's don't have the same fears you do?

It really all depends on exactly what it is. Is this Tendonitis? A knee bump? We don't know yet. Let's see what they find out. Can't act like KP is Joel Embiid at this point.

But we just need two GM's to push each other to a make the price extremely high. A lot of GM's out there might be desperat to land a big star, and most teams in the NBA is right now closer to creating a great team than the Knicks, and therefore more desperate to land another star even though he might be prone to injuries.

KP is 7-3

How many 7-3 guys stay healthy?

The smart way to handle it is to preemptively manage his minutes the way the Spurs did for Duncan for many many years. Keep him in the 24-28 minute range and let him sit 1/10 games. We certainly have enough bigs to rotate and give minutes.

Im pretty sure I read Tim Duncan from 27-38 until he retired avg a tad less than 30 minutes a game. That was 11-12 years. Tim Duncan is way more solid than KP.

RIP Crushalot😞

The big man depth should make it easy to keep KP's minutes in check. I think the Knicks will be careful with KP's minutes just to be safe.
