June 3, June 3, recently, former NBA player Danny Green participated in the "All The Smoke" program and talked about Embiid.

Stephen Jackson: "Do you think if Embiid started playing basketball earlier than he was so late, would he get hurt less? Because some people say he started too late."

Danny Green: "No, I think there is another reason. People are still looking for reasons, some say it is a problem with training methods, rehabilitation methods or physical therapy. His weight sometimes fluctuates, and when you have the same size as him, this will happen. You know, a player as tall as him..."

"This is also what I worry about for the literary class. It is difficult for a seven-foot-long person to play for a long time. It is a great career to be able to play for 10 years. He is in his career. So his injuries are usually knees or feet, and he cannot train to control his weight after the injury. The weight fluctuations make the body heavier. I think this is how the injury comes about, and the tendons will compensate. He doesn't like strength training very much, but he is already very strong and may not feel that it is necessary to practice too much. If he really lifts more iron, it may be strong enough to be exaggerated. But I think this can protect the tendons and bones, but it is not accurate. Just like when we used traditional training methods, we thought that it was more useful and we suffered less injuries during training. Maybe they train more, but I think the main problem is that his injuries affect weight management and cause training to be unable to maintain regularity. "
