Mobility loss after a meniscus tear is not a thing from everything I've ever seen with those type injuries. Chronic pain issues become a problem tho.
There was a discussion somewhere on one of these threads where several people talked about how they thought defense wasn't a lack of mobility but a lack of effort. KP clearly wasn't happy and when he's frustrated it shows on the court.
But I point to Gallonari as a guy who can score but not play defense that gets paid even with injuries. KP is better and younger.
