All the injured

KEVIN DURANT
Eventually he’ll be as potent as ever, just hope the Nets understand what Kevin Durant is up against. Durant’s thinking about a championship, about acclimation, about settling scores. The Nets have to remember what happens when Durant plays through something he shouldn’t.
Take your time with the best basketball player. Take nights off, cap minutes, do whatever you can during what’s left of a forever-forgettable regular season. You’re not going to fix everything by the postseason, so you might as well make sure everyone is healthy, rhythmic, and geeked to play.

So he’s out of NBA shape and his back hurts from trying to catch up, which is good because the Nets play in Philadelphia a week from Thursday and FUCK THAT.
You wouldn’t come back for it either. They boo the wins in Philly.
