he was doing great the first year he came. the injury during the playoffs probably caused this issue. He had no time to workout,no training camp,etc. i hope he gets well i dont want him done at 29.

Or it could have something to do with his knees being ticking time bombs? He's probably beginning the down slide and from this point on will hit the "oh yeah he had micro fracture surgery" stage of his career where he starts looking like, well, a guy that had micro fracture surgery.

He lost a child, his mother, his cousin and watched a kid get killed a few months ago. I would say he's a bit oversensitive when it comes to the mortality of someone like his father.

Give him some slack his head is supremely fucked.

If he wants to take the year off he should do it right and just not play for a year. Don't half-ass it on the court and then take weeks off every time something minor happens.

I agree, he should just take the rest of the year off.

You can blame his amazonian wench for tlaking him into playing this season.

That's easy to say, but I don't think a lot of people would walk away from eight million dollars, even if that's the "right" way.

[Vahagn]

So Kobe has a broken nose and a mild concussion but stays in the game to defend Lebron James and take the final free throws while Bron passes 3 times in the final 30 seconds despite being on fire the whole 4th quarter?


Also, I would love to pick up Beasley...if we can get him I'd rather keep Gasol/Bynum then trade for Dwight

[Herpes Reasons]

Need your input, my Gaf club.
So I've been training my nephew in basketball (14yrs old)
To make it to his high school basketball team.
And the coach accepted him. And I'm very pleased with his progress.
Anyone recommend a good ankle brace?
Lace vs. Velcro?

If he has bad ankles lace, no contest..

If you are worried (like no injuries yet) then velcro

Yeah no injuries yet.
How about slip ons vs. Butterfly wrap?

 

[THRILLH0]

I find that slips always lose their shape/elasticity because you have to get them past your heel. A velcro wrap is a good compromise between convenience and stability.

 

[CommonSense]

Yeah no injuries yet.

If you can set right then wrap it, all day. If not then buy 4 or 5 slips for the season. Also get him working on that left hand!


Lol at Kobe's pic.

 

[h3ro]

Yeah no injuries yet.

Just be careful not to have too much restriction at the ankle. He should have some lateral range. To much rigidity could put extra stress on his knees.

Nothing to do with his knees. He had surgery on his back in the off season and couldn't work out. You can tell its his back because he stands straight up and doesn't bend the middle of his body no matter what he's doing.

Knee and back issues go hand in hand.

 

[charsace]

Knee and back issues go hand in hand.

I know. When he bends to do something like say take a jump shot he bends his knees. Its his torso that remains straight.

While we're at it, move the Jazz back to New Orleans and the Lakers back to Minnesota. At least the team names would make sense again.
