Didn't Howard have the something done? How long was he out?

Is this the same thing as orthokine (Germany treatment)?

Whatever. Just keep him out until the playoffs. I don't even want the 1 or 2 seed with the way OKC is playing. Westbrook frightens me tbh.

[oh the horror]

IMO once this experiment doesn't work out I would say it's
Time to look for other options. That man cannot stay healthy to save his life.

Lee really needs to come back though...his services are needed.

Curry
Thompson
Iggy/Barnes
Green
Lee

GS had plenty of success with that lineup last year.

No. Both of them involve extracting blood from the patient and then spinning the blood and separating it. Orthokine is heated and spun to produce more interleukin and then it serves as a super antinflammatory and is reinjected into the area. With PRP its the platlets that are extracted and reinjected. Orthokine isn't actually forbidden in the US it's just not approved so there are very few doctors who do it and the one who do aren't allowed to advertise that they do. Bogut has had Orthokine before.
