So do we think that LBJ will only be down for 2 weeks? Given injury prognosis' in the past, I'm thinking we're looking more at 3-4 weeks being the likely return time.
But the big concern is re-injury or doing further damage. This is one of those lingering kinds of injuries where it is incurred not as a result of direct collision or damage within the context of any said play. The worry from here is going to be placed on LeBron's ability to recover 100% from this kind of thing.
Honestly, I'm not expecting him to be completely pain-free for the rest of his career from now. He's at that point now where I feel like any strain on his body is going to require an adjustment in play to consolidate for a lack of athleticism, precision, skill set etc.
I have this terrible feeling that he may return after a 2-3 week period only to realize that nothing has improved, he's still playing with a slight pain and it's not something that he can simply sit-out and wait to heal itself. He's going to have to play through it if he wants to close out the season strong.
Now, of course, I'm no doctor - I'm just working with my pessimistic vibes, that's all
