This is a professional athlete worth millions of dollars.

Contrary to popular opinion, people like Gary Vitti or Judy Seto are NOT doctors, FAR FROM IT. It's laughable to even equate the two.

Who the hell is the DOCTOR on that Lakers staff and what in the world was he thinking not getting an MRI before allowing Nash to continue to do leg curls when the pain wasn't going away?


In Soviet Russia, the curl legs YOU.

Yeah, well, they should hire an ortophedic surgeon full-time instead of paying a community college alumnus 4.5 million dollars to 'coach' 4 future hall of famers.

Not saying an ortophedic surgeon is more important than a coach, but he's probably better bang for the buck.

I'd say that title easily belongs to the Sun's staff, who have performed miracles on their players. Most of our guys have taken longer than normal to heal for whatever reason, and the big aberration of Kkbe tends to just play through his injuries as opposed to healing them.

Good to hear this isn't a 4 week deal. That would be a bummer.

Let Nash heal, even if it takes 1-2 months, don't let him back on till he is 100%.

If he still played handicapped under MB, do we still consider he's 100%?

Freaking Gary Vitti. He gets the benefit of the doubt cause he's been there for decades but I think it's time to get someone new.

Maybe you can replace him.


Last time I checked, Vitti was not the team doctor, nor has he ever been the team doctor.

Did anyone here actually think those two were doctors? I don't think that falls under 'popular belief' here or anywhere...Vitti's just a trainer and Seto, I believe is a physical therapist or something of the sort...
