the thing is : Without surgery you just donīt know how serious it is. Thatīs the thing with knee injury, every other method isnīt conclusive and often you actually can move on it much better as on comparable ankle injuries (as an example) but you just donīt move as well as you are used to.
And seeing how Garnett is (for good and for worse) as tough and competitive as he is, heīll likely just talked himself into thinking he can play through it. But then when he actually played in games, where there is no faking and holding back, the knee just exploded inside, either aggrevating (a serious sprain into a break) sth or simply getting inflammation on top of the structural problems which than has consequences for the healing process.
