Can’t wait till he comes back. I’m always rooting for John Wall.

Is he coming back this season?

His Achilles injury was just a little tear. It wasn't full on and it wasn't on his jumping leg. He's being extra cautious but you can tell he isn't gonna be limited once he comes back Just a little rust. But he'll be alright.
I thought he slipped and fell and it and tore later. He had a set back after the first surgery.

Yeah he had a surgery and the time line wasn't meant to be long. Then he slipped in the house or something and they say he tore his Achilles. So when people heard that they thought it was over. But he came out and said that it wasn't a full on tear like everyone else. Even his scar is just a little scar. Then Gilbert arenas in his podcast came out and said this is on walls non jumping leg. He'll be alright.

Fast forward he's taken his time coming back and has been playing for a while getting comfortable and not rushing back you can see he still has bounce. He is thinner and moves well. I think he'll be okay. They have taken all precautions.

Only PG better than healthy Wall was Curry and that was because Curry had the rings and MVPs

I think it was debatable, I definitely was in the minority arguing him as the best point in the East (most people argued against me and told me Kyrie was better)...

Wall had the misfortune of both injury and playing in a PG-deep era. All things considered the only points of this era I'd take ahead of him are Curry, Paul, and Westbrook.....him and Russ play a very similar game and Wall at his best was a better defensive player, but Russ has moments of strong D and given the fact he's been more consistently great for a longer period of time, I'd put him over Wall...

But they have a really similar style and all things considered I ain't mad if someone takes Peak Wall over Peak Russ...

Muhfukkas tried to argue Dame over Wall and I never went for it...
