Can anyone please tell me what happened to his leg sleeve? Why he isn't wearing it? Is there any reason or he got bored to it? And those knee bracelets are kinda ugly now... I know this is maybe a stupid thread,probably the worse I ever started but I'm wondering about this for a long time
I thought the NBA banned them unless they were being used for medical purposes. Apparently with all the stars wearing em like Lebron n Kobe, it was tarnishing the appearance of the game. I think the rule game in at the same time as the new dress code was established.
yea it got banned. but judging from the preseason, his knees and feet are better and he's not wearing anything. guess patterson is making tmac young again
Sleeves are only allowed for medical purposes or as in Iverson and Melo's case, to cover up the tattoos. He should just wear one high sock and one ankle sock.
Because keeping the players from looking like thugs is far more important to the integrity of the game than say....keeping an eye on the refs.
yea i just called tmac, here's what he had to say tmac: yea man, i was hearing yao talk about clutchfans and how these fools said i was slow as hell. so i'm not gonna wear sh**t so i can be faster. my dream is to be loved by all on clutchfans PS - get yo popcorn ready on 10/30 cuz ima blow by kobe and dunk on his ass
im thinking this could be one of coach adelmans rules. i dont know if others noticed, but the WHOLE team was wearing those mid-high socks AND their short seemed .... short. all the players were wearing their shorts about 2 inches above their knees and werent baggy. . yao's seemed like around 4 inches . it could, however, just be a preseason thing, who knows
I heard a different story from him. He told me that he's saving the sleeve for when the team wears their Black/Red alternative uni's so he can sport his black sleeves.
He didn't wear the leg sleeve last year. I remeber because I went into my NBA 2K7 roster and edited him.
