So Kobe "shattered" the achilles recovery timetable???

[gts]

Dumb thread, Kobe hasn't recovered from his injury...lol

[ProfessorMurder]

How naive are you? Zanetti is doping his balls off.

So is Kobe.

[sportjames23]

Javier Zanetti (soccer player) has just returned to official play, playing the final 10 minutes of his sides match yesterday.......and he injured it 2 weeks after Kobe! He's also 5 years older than Kobe. Remarkable really.

For anyone who doesn't know much about the sport or isn't aware of who Zanetti is or for those who are looking to downplay this achievement, Zanetti, at the age of 39, and after playing in over 800 competitive matches for Inter is a 90 minute player, week in week out. He RARELY misses a game. His total appearances for Inter Milan would translate to roughly 70,000 minutes, if not more.

He is a phenomenal athlete who's game is based on strength, tireless running up and down the wing and an unrivalled stamina. His engine is unbelievable.

He has barely lost a step and remains faster, stronger and quicker than most younger players.

Now its Kobe's turn

Jumping

Soccer

Basketball probably demands more from the achilles then playing soccer. Also I think Kobe will be like Rose and not want to return until the feel they can contribute properly.

Achilles tendon tears are most closely associated with soccer, because soccer players put more stress on them.


''The majority of Achilles ruptures occurred in sports. The ruptures occurred most often in soccer (34%), track and field (16%) and basketball (14%).''

Fixed

Soccer always a step ahead when it comes to doping.

It's not being a step ahead in doping, it's using less dope at a young age.
