Michael Porter Jr. is the latest NBA player that believes in science when they need surgery, but not when it comes to vaccines



Like Urban Meyer and scandals, injuries and Michael Porter Jr. go together. This is the reason why a talented young man is about to have his third back surgery.

If I already know how I will react to COVID, I don't want to risk putting something that I don't know.

Doctors should only be trusted if they open you up while you are sleeping and if you get a shot that could save your life. In the NBA, most of the league's players against vaccine mandates have gone under the knife, as if they know what's in general anesthesia.

The last time he spoke to the public about his stance on vaccinations, Irving said, "This is my life." I get to do whatever I want with this. You are telling me what to do with my body. This is related to what is happening in our world. I am being grouped into something bigger than basketball.

Irving has never played an entire season of basketball since his high school days because he has dealt with injuries every season that has led to him needing surgery or taking some kind of medicine or rehab mandated by the advice of doctors.

The logic doesn't make sense.

I don't think anyone should come out and say this is why or this is not why, it should just be their decision, said Jonathan Isaac, a forward for the Magic. Loving your neighbor is more than just loving those who agree with you or look like you. It is loving those who do not.

In The Bubble, he had a torn kneeACL, but he didn't hesitate to trust the doctors to repair it. At Florida State, a school that required multiple vaccinations before anyone knew what COVID-19 was, he played.

Bradley Beal, a man who was taken off the Olympic team because he had a vaccine that seemed to save millions of lives, is still out here making it seem like a vaccine that has saved millions of lives is some type of manufactured mind control.

It is a personal decision for every person. Right? He said in September that he has the right to keep it to himself or his family.

Bradley, we don't respect you because you sound dumb. All of you have taken vaccinations before, whether it was as a child or as a college student. The battle over free will and personal choice has become a battle over a vaccine that is proven to work with side effects that are easier to deal with than death, when there were hardly any objections to it before.

When you need surgery to maintain the millions you get paid to play basketball, and then turn around and spit in science's face, it's the epitome of being someone who's ass-backward. We are still waiting for you to tell us where you found all the research that was needed to make a decision.
