Considering that he ended up missing the last 25 games of the season, it's probably safe to say that there was a cover up going on. I'm trying to remember if there was ever any kind of backlash as a result, or if it was pretty much forgotten about. I'm thinking it was the latter. Well this is a real blast from the past.

To make an extreme example, if someone knew Willis Reed was going to come back in that famous game, they could have made a killing in Vegas. Aside from that, I wish teams would never comment on injuries. As for the "staple," I'll just say that it's an inexact word that Simmons used and I parroted for consistency. I honestly didn't think it was that big a deal initially, but it's led to more questions than it answered.

Once he aborted the comeback, only the most panglossian of fans could hope he would return. KG not playing in the playoffs came as no surprise.

If fans require transparency, then they shouldn't buy a ticket or merch until the team does so. if the team is taking tax dollars, it's a little different but supply and demand should make that call.
