John Wall gaining some WEIGHT???
And personal chefs, nutritionists, etc. I think you can still do sit ups and resistance training that don't involve the lower body also. This was a choice, and one that could be very detrimental to his rehab. More lbs. is not good on the knees. I would be livid if I was coach/owner/GM of Washington.
He is suppose to comes back in two or three weeks, if he doesn't perform well. I'm curious what the John Wall supporters are going to say. I mean come on Derrick Rose been out too, but he has been looking just as ripped and healthy as he ever did.
You know, NBA players usually take some of their friends to the courts at times to shoot around. It could be a trainer, a family member of one of the players, a fan allowed on the court as part of some sort of charity thing. It could be anyone, just because he's presumably on the Wizards court, does not necessarily make him John Wall.
I mean, am I really the only one that sees his head the size of his entire torso? Am I missing anything?
I'd be surprised if this was John Wall's real body lol.
However, I think people need to give him a break. Yes, the NBA does have state of the art rehab equipment and technology, but there's nothing you can do when you have a stress reaction in your kneecap that team doctor's are terrified will turn into a stress fracture (requiring surgery and ending your season). You really just have to rest and stay off of it. Eric Gordon was in a similar situation. He had some issues with his patellar tendon that just literally shut him down rehab wise and he lost most of the strength in his quad.
I think it's wrong to compare Wall's situation to a Derrick Rose's. Rose was able to do cardio very early in his rehab. He just couldn't run full speed or pivot/cut.
This is photoshopped I don't care if John Wall was in a wheel chair his body type, age and metabolism make it very unlikely he's gotten this fat in his time away which has only been a few months.
If this isn't photoshopped then it was taken with like a 2mega pixel camera from a very bad angle distorting perception.
I believe Wall is gonna light it up as soon as he steps on the court. Him and Beal should immediatly gain chemistry from transition buckets, back door lobs, and drive and kicks, while the rest of the Wiz will receive a huge boost from the energy Wall will come back with.
I don't believe it will last long but Wall has really been thrown under the bus this past year and I don't think all of his criticism is fair. Sure he's extremely raw with not much PG skills, but he's such a rare raw talent that he can get by with it for just now.
Camera doesn't do it justice. I believe his diet (while being out) got a little less strict, coupled by not being able to work out properly. Realistically this weight wouldn't take too much time to lose, but a fat john wall is a funny thought haha
Better Camera Shot
