Jamal Murray Isn't Worried About His Hand Injury Because He Did Batshit Crazy Workouts Like Squats With Hot Tea On His Quads

I understand it's a little different when you're talking about an NBA player like Jamal Murray, but, uh, this sounds miserable. Squats in general are fucking awful but now you're putting hot tea on my quads? No thank you. I don't even want to drink hot tea unless I'm sick as shit. You may be wondering why are we even talking about this and it's because Jamal Murray has some floor burn on his hand: 

Yeah, gross. Floor burn and ripped up like that is just one of those injuries I never expect to have once I got over the age of like 26. I'm not diving on the floor in pickup a decade later. Stubbed toes? Sure. I hate doing it but I run into my kids toys all the goddamn time and hurt my feet. That's actually the real pain tolerance athletes should do. You want to deal with playing through pain? Put some goddamn Matchbox cars and lego type things on the floor and start walking without a light on. 

That said, I don't know which workout routine sounds worse. The hot tea quads or the cold leaf pickup. Picking up leaves is a top-3 worst chore to do around the house. It's awful. You never get them in the pile right, you seem to never stop picking them up. Plus, remember, Jamal Murray was in Canada. That shit was - to quote Michael Irvin - cold. 

Again, I say this as a dad to two boys. Practice starts tomorrow morning fellas. We're going to make the NBA (no we're not) we're going to start doing squats with hot tea and shit. That's how you prepare to play with some floor burn.
