KD should definitely SUE the Warriors for giving him the green light to play, now we will never see the KD at his full strength EVER AGAIN. Nobody ever came back from Achilles Injury and be the same player, there's NONE in history. It sucks to lose KD and his absolute prime just because he wanted to SHUT all the critics up.
I know some people will bring up Dominique Wilkins and his comeback was successful. But people dont realize that before the injury Dominique was a skywalker, athleticism was off the chart, and after the injury he had to adjust his game and worked hard on his 3 points shooting, thats why he could continue to produce from shooting instead of just relying on his athleticism.
In his comeback, Wilkins did something Kobe Bryant cannot do. Wilkins reinvented himself as a three-point shooter, from almost exclusively being viewed as a high-fly act. Wilkins went from shooting 105 three-pointers in 1988-1989, to shooting 316 of them (1992-1993). 2 seasons after his injury, Wilkins shot a career-high 38.8% from beyond the arc. Bryant, already known as a great three-point shooter, will not be able to surprise defenders by pulling up from the outside, as defenders will expect him to do just that.
As for Kevin Durant, I really cant see him improve his game any other area after suffering htis injury, it's a shame to have very likely seen the last of the Kevin DURANT PRIME, thanks to the GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS, I hope the warriors burn into ashes.
