Can we PLEASE stop with the "the other team is injuring our players on purpose", garbage we are getting from both the Warriors and Grizzlies. I understand that these players and coaches are posturing for calls from the refs but come on. Nobody is hurting anyone on purpose. I understand in a perfect world we would see both teams at full strength for the entire series, but that's not how life works. Injuries have gone up substantially in the post season. I personally do not believe for one second it is a coincidence that injuries have gone up considerably in the post season. These player's effort levels increase dramatically in the post season. From what I see most regular season games are played at roughly 80% effort for the first 3-3.5 quarters. The difference between the regular season and the post season is that players are giving maximum effort throughout the entire duration of the game, this does not happen in the regular season. More injuries occur and will continue to occur in the post season, no body is taking your guys out on purpose!!
