"...no longer did an ACL surgery to an 8-year-old raise eyebrows, nor did the constant stream of patients so young seem unusual. Five years ago, Pandya estimates that he alone would see about 1,500 pediatric sports injuries and perform maybe 150 surgeries -- ACL, cartilage, shoulder injuries -- in a single year; those numbers have "skyrocketed," he says, and last year stood at 6,000 and 400, respectively. More than half of his operations are now on those under the age of 14..." Excerpt from ESPN article: "Under the knife: Exposing America's youth basketball crisis"
Funny how JJ Reddick got roasted for saying the 80s 90s games wasn’t as physically tough like people say because the amount of movement wasn’t nearly as much or fast as today.
_Julius Randle was the only all-star to not miss a game at the making of this video_ Felt bad when I saw him get the ankle injury. Man's been indestructible since he got to NY.
6:07 as a former D1 athlete, the weights do help but if you injury prone or just have bad luck, It is what it is no matter if you lifting that iron 5 times out of the week. Especially in modern basketball with all those very fast movements, jumping and long schedule compared to most mainstream sports.
I thought his take was so stupid. Resistance training is resistance training. Whether you use pulleys or weights or bands your muscles don't know the difference it just knows it's under load. The only thing that's different about free weights is that your body has to stabilize you using other muscles.
@@dragonxx444 maybe you're different, but my muscles don't have minds of their own that say "wait a minute, this 50lbs doesn't feel like a dumbbell, it feels like a pulley"
I talked to a friend about that before Jimmy's video, US players are playing a lot of games to make videos to impress scouts, HS kids are playing 5 or 6 games a weekend, in europe for an example the youngsters are playing 1 or 2 games a week. This HS system needs to change
ironically, it makes them worse basketball players too. AAU is not at all focused on team basketball or fundamentals. it's focused on breeding individual talent that is impressive to scouts which becomes less and less useful the higher up you go on the basketball ladder. it's basically just a money grab that exploits kids at this point and makes players who are worse and more injury prone at the NBA level.
This makes me think that Giannis is going to run the league for years to come. He's already arguably the best in the nba, and he doesn't have the AAU, college, overseas, etc mileage that the LaMelos, Lukas, Ja's, etc of the world
I used to Olympic lift, and at some point I started throwing in bodybuilding and basketball for this exact same reason. I was getting injured all the time because I was constantly doing the same motions. Even though those other practices didn't do much to make me a better oly lifter, they did help strengthen my body in more comprehensive ways, which in turn helped to reduce the incidence of injury
I can't help but look back in 2015 at Delly having to guard Curry, and literally getting hospitalized for exhaustion. I mean it's just a more intensive game now. You have more freak of nature players and a faster pace. Giannis being that big and strong could injure himself because he's at the limits of the human body, and not only that, bro literally knocked a dude's teeth out the other day.
Like looking at the stats, Reggie Miller barely ever missed games, and I wonder if it was because he was playing with one of the slowest paces in the league.
I think players today are able to put out a greater level of athleticism compared to last generation. That probably leads to your body breaking down faster. It’s like using a supercar for a daily car but also pushing it to the max everyday.
Especially when players dealt with chronic injuries in the past did not have to keep up with a faster game with more movements. Even all time greats could potentially have radically different careers, like a Larry Bird who had back issues.
jxmy is kind of right but leaves out a key detail. lets start w the ball brothers, who since they were born have been practicing basketball, and lavar has made that very clear. doing those repetitive movements are gonna make the muscles and joints being used much stronger, however it will speed up the wear and tear process because only those parts of the body are being used over and over again. how does a sports scientist suggest to combat this? having them in multiple sports. doing this uses other muscles that wouldn't get used as much in basketball and overall balances out the wear and tear, instead of hyper-focusing on areas like the knees and shit like that. lebron played football in hs, which definitely uses a different set of muscles, and giannis played soccer until he was 14-15, which is why he be moving like hakeem (who also played soccer).
13:40 the protros are a bit different from the og Kobe lines they got stuff like zoom turbo that cover the whole forefoot instead of the old Kobe’s that only covered the side ball of your foot and the foam is softer and the shanks are slightly different and on the Kobe 1 it was a total overhaul of better materials full length cushion etc. some ppl do wear the OGs but they starting to be too old for in game wears so most wearing the protro upgraded versions
Ligament and joints being overused is a serious concern. Many pro athletes tend to not do squat too much or too often because of destroying the collagen in their knees. Also imagine another team in the league. Teams have to play another team on top of 82 games a season. The NBA is probably also trying to find the cause of this for monetary purposes. They need the big stars on the playing most of the time, and if more players are getting injured especially the younger talented players then revenues will probably go down and more ads might be played. Well I hope the nba by themselves are tryna figure this out, star players is what the nba is and has been about forever. Also blaming load management is actually crazy, load management legitimately helps players not get injured -kawhi 2019 is the best example. The problem is that everybody is load managing so people think it’s ruining their bodies, but that’s not how it works, there were successful cases of load management decreasing the potential for injury so every team adapted it. Also just look at Kobe for a case of playing too much and working out too much without rest, he’s probably had some of the worst injuries a basketball player could have and it’s probably due to if true, him working out all the time and getting only a couple hours of sleep each night. No matter who you are or how amazing your body is, you need rest, Kobe should’ve rested far more throughout his career-maybe not 20-25 games, but maybe he should’ve got more sleep, and rested a game or two each season once he turned 28, or during any season where his team was just absolute dookie and he couldn’t do anything about it. His Achilles tendon injury was definitely due too much stress and over exertion throughout his career. Players and teams will definitely have to find a middle ground with this, since the nba doesn’t want players sitting out all the time, but no one wants a player to over exert themselves and end up injured for 2 months.
The problem with Grovers weight lifting take is that athletes never stopped doing impact workouts - in fact, they increased those. For legs, both lateral explosion and landing. So the muscles definitely are trained for that. Every player does leg press. There's no wire training substitute for that
strengthening in lengthened or flexible positions is best. you don't just want range of motion, you want your muscles to be very stable in those wide ranges of motion
You're right. Look at Wembanyama. His routines focus a lot on high flexibility especially in areas like his feet which is an issue area for many big men.
Don't believe Tim grover. Kobe had a bunch of injuries but he just played through them. All that wear and tear led him to tearing his acl and that was basically the end of his career
I remember bout a week ago i was gonna show this to my dad, but then Jxmmy's closing statement had that vibe about it that i know would make older fans toss the video and stop considering anything said in it
They say if a light shines twice as bright burns for half as long I do still believe the slow grit and grind style has a place its just who's willing to chance it
Those players back in the day had better durability scaling and endurance feats. Ankle sprain? Here's some ice now go play defense Nowadays a ankle sprain has you out like a month
Call George is right … Players aren’t conditioned to play hard Too many days off and not enough conditioning for their bodies to experience in game scenarios Most of them just do a shoot around and then that’s it then they go straight to playing
I'm just trying to figure out, that if the Milwaukee Bucks really are the strongest organization in the world of NBA, considered to be planetary, how come the Celtics beat them so badly? Does that make the Celtics around SSJ tier? Can they move at Mach 50 and outspeed the rest of the league? The Wizards beat them recently, does this scale the power of the Wizards to be above Super Saiyan? Since they won by 19 points, and if you multiply that by 2, and that's 38, which is the amount of games the Bulls won so far this season, does this mean the Bulls are finally recovering from losing Air Jordan Instinct mode?
Will you guys please stop talking over the video not only I can't hear the video but I can't hear what you're saying either... If you want to say something stop the video
Haven’t watched full video yet, I think the reason is simply the pace of play. This pace offers more possessions within one game and this perimeter oriented style of play is hard on lower extremities. Furthermore you aren’t as sharp when you are tired. Now I’m KD case he was trying to warm up. However it does point out the lack of attention to detail some players may have.
Jaylen brown is better than jayson Tatum he’s way more clutch than Tatum in big games against top teams just look at the finals last year, Jaylen brown carried Tatum and would’ve won fmvp if they had won. Rn it’s more even but I still think Jaylen is better if Tatum is a 94 ovr brown should be a 95 no cap
Most of these nba players don't even run right. They should be brought up with track and field on the side to learn the body mechanics. Also, stop doing all these crazy handlings, cutting, and jumping, focus on the fundamentals, you really don't need a lot of moves to score.
The prime argument here is rlly mikal trade for kd. Obviously its kd but mikal is the most healthy player in the league averaging 26 with the nets and kd has the injury risk
