HALLELUKA: Luka Clinches All-NBA 1st team. 4th in 5 years

Very interesting:

"A calf strain manages to be both painful and annoying in equal measure. It can hurt, but sometimes not as much as other strains, and yet it has this amazing ability to restrict your movement in so many ways.

But here’s the big question for us cycling nuts – can you cycle with a calf strain?

You should not cycle with a calf strain, as this can antagonize the injury, and lead to a much longer period off your bike than if you rested. The medical solution to a calf strain is relatively simple – rest, ice, and patience.

Of course, there are different levels of calf strains and different stages of injury."






If Casey Smith is really "the best head athletic trainer in the entire NBA," then he is surely an expert on "Cycling with a Calf Strain."  And if athletes "should not cycle with a calf strain," then maybe Luka really just suffered a bad cramp in his calf last Sunday night.


CONSPIRACY THEORISTS ... UNITE!!!

The fact that they said "icing" tells me they don't know what they are talking about. Icing for sprains and strains has been shown to slow down healing.
