NBA's Most Durable Players

[scm5]

Who are the most durable players in NBA history?

I'm not talking about minor injuries like ankle sprains that keep you out for a few games. I'm talking about no major injuries.

Ex.

Lebron - Surprisingly durable for the way he plays the game.

[Black and White]

Pre injury Kobe was durable

It sounds like you're cherry picking, Lebron sat out games the other year with a sprained toe/pinky.

Are we talking durable as in doesn't get injured? or durable as in plays through injuries?

One of the most durable was Andre Miller. Dude played like 8-9 years and all 82 games. Not sure how he is now.
Westbrook was up there to until last year.

[MP.Trey]

Pre injury Kobe was durable
Pre injury everyone was durable. :oldlol:

I get what you're saying though. He had a good run there for a long time, definitely a durable player.

[branslowski]

HGH LeBron easily....Not so much this season since he had to stop doping because the league was cracking down.

I'm talking about major, lingering injures like Kobe's achilles, Rose' ACL tear, CP3's meniscus, Jordan's broken foot, Pippen/Nash/Tmac/Bird's back problems, Wade's knees...

[R.I.P.]

Dirk has to be up there. Missed 41 regular season games in his first 14 seasons, made the play-off 12 times and after that in the summer still playing for Germany, carrying eleven d-League all-stars to medals in international competitions.

[NuggetsFan]

Andre Miller is craaazy durable.

[NumberSix]

Pre injury Kobe was durable
The Titanic was unsinkable.... Pre-sinking.

[nightprowler10]

Johnny 'Red' Kerr has to be up there. 844 consecutive games played.

[mugiwara]

Andre Miller /thread

Only ever missed a game from smacking the absolute shit outta of Blake Griffin, not flop on that hit.

[inclinerator]

lebron considering the way he plays

[Round Mound]

Kareem Abdul Jabbar & Karl Malone

[Young X]

Gary Payton >>>>>>>>>>

[Mr. Jabbar]

Kareem Abdul Jabbar & Karl Malone

interesting they all start with a "K", we throw in kobe to the list and its even more mind blowing, kim duncan will certainly join the list too

[ProfessorMurder]

Asik.

DNP - Sad

That's not durable.

[Fudge]

Kevin Durant. I can't even remember the last time he's missed a game due to injury.

[B-Low]

How has NO ONE said John Stockton yet?? Dude played all 82 games in like 17 out of 19 seasons

[NumberSix]

Kevin Durant. I can't even remember the last time he's missed a game due to injury.
He will probably soon develop carpel tunnel from shooting free throws

[j3lademaster]

The Titanic was unsinkable.... Pre-sinking.He never said it's impossible for Kobe to be injured (like what was said about the Titanic in YOUR analogy), he just meant Kobe before this achilles injury was very durable for 16/17 seasons... and he's not wrong.

Wasn't Kobe injured like, all the time? I can't remember a sting of 10 days where there wasn't a big issue made in the media about Kobe's ankle, finger, wrist, other ankle, knee, nose, eye, other finger, moustache, etc...

[kurple]

its andre miller. without a doubt

[Xiao Yao You]

How has NO ONE said John Stockton yet?? Dude played all 82 games in like 17 out of 19 seasons

And only missed 30 games after microfracture surgery and came back basically the same player!

Karl Malone of course too. Didn't have a major injury until he was 40.

[kurple]

old man dre have only missed 6 games. 4 because of injury i think

in what? 14 seasons

[Black and White]

Kevin Durant. I can't even remember the last time he's missed a game due to injury.

How can he ever get injured when anytime you look at him its a foul???

[BoutPractice]

Kevin Garnett has been very durable for someone who's played since he was 19 years old. He has 8 seasons of 80 games or more and 11 seasons of 75 games or more.

Duncan
