Kevin Garnett says he used to run three miles a day so he wouldn’t ever get tired during games, and says he would lean into opposing players during the 4th quarter just to hear how hard they’re breathing and make sure they knew he wasn’t tired at all
“Stretching is another thing. I don’t think our kids are in the best shape either, bro. I’m watching the league, a lot of dudes out of shape in the league, bro. I ain’t going to lie. I don’t see nobody running, racing.”
“The secret weapon of being in shape... I was literally just hell on the whole team. It’s different when you’ve got your hands on your knees in the fourth quarter and you see a dude in your face ready to go. Like, ‘I’m not even tired.’ That’s just a mental advantage.”
“They don’t run the miles. That used to be one of my main workouts, two or three miles a day. I never got tired on the court, ever. That was part of my play. I wanted to outwork you so much that I could hear you breathing. I’d say something: ‘Boy, you breathing. I can hear you. You sound like Biggie out here.’”
“I’m dead ass, boy. You can’t play me. You out here huffing and puffing, boy. What? It’s definitely an advantage to that.”

Cooper Flagg says he wants to spend his whole career in Dallas and be loved like Dirk, but staying isn’t entirely up to him
Q: "Would you like to be on one team? Forever?"
Cooper Flagg: "100%. I think I would like nothing more than that to be able to... you look at someone like Dirk, obviously, his legacy, there’s nothing that touches that, to be that loved by a city, to have that much love and support from one place. I don’t think you could dream for anything else but that."
"That’s the ultimate goal, but like we were just talking about, it’s a business at the end of the day and a lot of it’s not going to be my decision."

Potentially platelet rich plasma injection - time frame may be a bit aggressive but generally these have roughly an 80% success rate. 10-12 weeks is what I prepare my basketball players for but they aren’t the level of NBA resources so 8-10 isn’t crazy
