Why aren't more teams copying the Suns athletic training system?

Its been well documented that fragile players become durable when they play for the Suns...and its also been pretty well documented that the Suns utilize a unique system of preparation, prevention and recovery for their athletes, which are the three primary goals of athletic training.

Nash got hurt fast..im waiting on brittle boned grant to get injured soon too. Oh wait hes out with bone bruises already (looked it up after typing). Shaq left phoenix and was hurt all year..Amare? Were they inevitable because they are old, or because they left phoenix? Stands to wonder.

The least teams could do is adapt to modernity and employ more of the suns methods. It will improve the quality of the league cuz these guys wont miss as many games and will perform better in them.

Same reason the triangle offense won 11 of the last 21 titles and nobody has copied that. People are stubborn and think they know better than the next guy, regardless of what actually happens.

If the suns kept joe Johnson they would of made the finals at least once . The problem is without the personal dantOni is trash makes no adjustments . His arrogance is why he lost the Knicks job

Yea but in this case I dont think anyone would criticize anyone for doing what the suns are..whereas if/when someone copies the triangle they will be under a lot of critique for better or worse. Athletic training is more normative than an offensive system..

I think your point holds true..but there more ways to design an offensive system than treat and train athletes physically and with the stakes being high, im surprised more teams arent doing what the suns are..much more than I am about coaches not using the triangle. Just sayin.

The Triangle won with 4 of the greatest players ever terrible analogy

Some of the most injury prone and oldest players ever managed to stay healthy in PHX. The analogy stands. :obama:
