    But the Utah game was at home and Ryan Anderson pretty much sucks at home. Big enough sample size. So I'm not sure how much of a difference he would have made....

    I've been there with bad ankle sprains coming down and landing on someone's foot. In my opinion every little bit of support helps.

    It would have been ever so slightly worse in low tops.

    "An article published in the October-December 2002 issue of "Journal of Athletic Training" examined risk factors for ankle sprain and reported that at least 2 studies have shown no correlation between shoe type and ankle sprains. "

    im no medical expert,
    i only have 7 (have to go to the doctor like) sprains in 20 years of playing amateur basketball, (ok, and one drunken-football-on-a-meadow sprain:)), on both legs, in all kind of shoes. and countless witnessing of my friends sprains in all kinds of shoes. so, my experience tells me- its not shoe issue.

    after a sprain, while regaining confidence, braces or tapping helps extremely. but, as time goes by, i gradually stop wearing support. so i dont know weather serious tapping would prevent ankle roll after going for the ball hard, and landing on the most top section of someones foot (its highest part).

    At one stage we went on a massive 72 to 28 run. 44 freaking point demolition job! .We did the same with the Floppers few games back after we were down 8 but turned it into a massive 33 point lead. That was a 41 turnaround.

    If anything I would say Dekker is the new Brewer, can't make threes as well as Ariza.

    His ability to space the floor is still pretty valuable for the offense regardless of his shooting struggles.

    Once again, the Rockets build a 30 point lead against a team on the road. Still believe we're a better road team than home now. Bad news for the 1st round, but good news if we can escape that round and face the Spurs and Warriors

    I can't believe an NBA team would actually field a roster with as little shooting as the Bulls have this day and age. They don't a single guy you are particularly concerned with, and they have a few guards that are complete non-threats.

    The funny or sad thing is their game plan is 3 point happy as well. They shot the ball 39 times from the 3pt line.

    I've had plenty as well no matter if it was high or low tops. It's going to happen, especially if you play basketball a lot.
