Karma has to do with the journey of the individual soul. Gods have nothing to do with Karma. He is playing with fire in regards to Karma though. Should be very careful with statements like those.
True. A bone bruise gets better pretty quick. A muscle bruise on the thigh often leads to a torn hamstring and career-ending surgery. Was that your point?
Curious where you got this gem of information... it runs counter to what I was able to find http://www.sportsinjuryclinic.net/cybertherapist/back/hamstrings/hamstringstrain.htm http://sportsmedicine.about.com/cs/leg_injuries/a/thigh2.htm http://orthoinfo.aaos.org/topic.cfm?topic=A00408
the whole oden is injured is almost insane at this point. the guy could have a scratch on his forehead and you would see the words out and career threatening. I mean the guy IS ALWAYS HURT! Its just unreal. With that said... i think hes played every pre season game so maybe hes getting a rest?
Not a big surprise. Injuries like that tend to hurt more the next day than they do at the time. If it was the regular season, and he had to go right back out the next night and play on it, it could be an issue. Right now, probably meaningless.
Now he has an opportunity to head out and get a massage on 82nd to help relieve the pain... those parlors are so much harder to find when you are on the road in Salt Lake City and need some therapy.
Guys as big as Oden, who play a physically punishing style like Oden are gonna get beat up over the course of any season. I think he'll probably average somewhere around 65-70 games per regular season, and that's just fine with me.
You provided the answer right here: Muscle overload is the main cause of hamstring muscle strain. This can happen when the muscle is stretched beyond its capacity or challenged with a sudden load. Hamstring muscle strains often occur when the muscle lengthens as it contracts, or shortens. Although it sounds contradictory, this happens when you extend a muscle while it is weighted, or loaded. This is called an "eccentric contraction." During sprinting, the hamstring muscles contract eccentrically as the back leg is straightened and the toes are used to push off and move forward. The hamstring muscles are not only lengthened at this point in the stride, but they are also loaded — with body weight as well as the force required for forward motion. Like strains, hamstring tendon avulsions are also caused by large, sudden loads. I said it often "leads to" a torn hamstring. Typically, players will go ahead and play when they have a bruised thigh. No big deal, right? But you can't help favoring a sore thigh when you're out there, so you put most of your weight on the other thigh when you need power and you end up tearing that hamstring. My physical therapist warned me of the same thing last year.
I was questioning your use of the term often, not the advice of your therapist on how to put in a hearing aid before listening to a basketball game. You may want to get a second opinion, because it seems you aren't doing it right.
Interesting that you have determined that Gregs contusion to the inner thigh is the same as you describe above. That's like me describing my shoulder injury to explain the risk of a rib injury.
None of these injuries to Oden, Aldridge or Przbilla (back spasms) are serious but it makes me want to lean towards keeping Collins on the roster instead of Udoka.
