I know guys like:Michael JordanAIKevin Garnetthave played hurt but Mo Pete has been are ironman. He hasn't missed a game since the fans in Toronto actually liked Vince Carter
Jordan, Iverson, Malone, Kobe...in that order. You can't get any better than that.You have to hand it to Iverson, though...the little guy gets hit more than anyone else I've ever seen. Jordan plays through the flu and still makes everyone else look bad. Malone barely missed any games, even though he did get hurt a great deal in his career. Kobe has been playing through plantar fasciitis and a dislocated finger for the past two years, and he beat the Pistons with a sinus infection just the other night.Morris Peterson...he's had three seasons (the last three) go perfect for him, but he hasn't really played through any injuries, has he?

That was the cleanest screen you could possibly set. HOW was that dirty?? I've seen the replay a million times, Wally stayed still, no one told Marbury the screen was coming. back to the topic. AI for sure. Wally is actually pretty tough, tougher than most people think. he has a really bad knee right now.There's also Gary Payton, Dwyane Wade, Allen Iverson of course. Paul Pierce has only missed 5 games in the past 5 years, but he just doesn't really ever get seriously hurt.

Duncan is another player. He played on 2 bad ankles last year and is playing with PF this year. Talk about tough.

that means no more coming into camp fat and out of shape, when your team is relying on your leadership on and off the court. It also means no more blaming others for our team's failure, or blaming staff members for not overdramatizing your injuries so that you avoid blame for your lack of conditioning :HAHAHA:
Iverson, no doubt. He is always in pain, and has had so many injuries, it is amazing he is better than ever....Jordan was also a warrior. For his whole career he hasn't been able to bend index finger because of injury, then of course the flu game, and countless other times.
I'm not laughing about what Shaq did. It's how kobe said it. If only Gray too video footage of his interview with kobe.
Right now its Iverson without a doubt. Hes the Steve McNair of the NBA.In the future I think it will be Wade, for the way he plays the game.

Get over it. Wally's screen was 100% clean, and the refs knew it because they didn't call a foul. Wally is simply built, and if you run into him without knowing it's like running into a brick wall. It's Marbury's teammates fault for not telling him the pick was going to be set. Just because Marbury got hurt on the play doesn't mean it was dirty. Sometimes players get hurt playing basketball, it's a contact sport.
Wow nobody has mentioned Paul Pierce once and nykfan cmon man, that screen Wally made was fine. Pierce got one of his teeth knocked out one game and came back like 10 minutes after it happened. Not to mention he was nearly stabbed to death and came back the same season. He's constantly taking the ball to the hoop and getting tons of contact. He's missed 14 games in 8 seasons as well.AI, KG, Kobe are definately up there. Old school players, what about Willis Reed? He played that infamous game with a broken leg.
This topic is not about who plays the most games without missing any. Its about guys stepping up their game when hurt.
