apparently the sock-esque protuberance is a "calf-length compression sleeve" that i guess is built into these shoes

yeah durant wore them for warmups but hasn't warn them in a game yet iirc

Wouldn't that cause more knee injuries / wear+tear?

Jenny Ondioleeene (Leee), Tuesday, 12 April 2016 21:30 (seven years ago) link

not sure why it would? just socks more or less.

Better Pau Gasol (Spottie), Tuesday, 12 April 2016 21:32 (seven years ago) link

I remember reading somewhere that the more you immobilize the ankles, the more stress goes into the knees. So if they're just compression socks, maybe not?

Jenny Ondioleeene (Leee), Tuesday, 12 April 2016 21:38 (seven years ago) link

this is going to end with players in full body compression iron man/ greenscreen suits up to their necks and in 2023 some young hotshot will start covering his head and then THAT'S gonna be a thing

those white ones are prob the best okc unis but the stripes on the pants are nonsensical. it's like someone designed good uniforms and was like "wait these are for okc they have to be hideous in some way"

those are awesome and why i don’t want them to fully transition to the vice colors. the heat will always be red/black/orange to me. but the vice motif was woven in pretty seamlessly & was blanketing the city apparel wise during that time. it just speaks to people’s idea of miami & looked cool. it saddens me. maybe one day they’ll wind this project down and let teams reuse the good ones

good job good effort

The 3-point shot of Dallas forward Grant Williams felt slightly off all morning in practice on the new, brightly painted Denver Nuggets court.

Turns out, it wasn’t his shot at all. It was a wrongly measured 3-point line.

The line’s curvature was painted too far back on the blue-and-yellow floor that Denver will use for the NBA’s In-season Tournament that made its debut Friday night.

it obviously makes complete sense, but there's something funny about an NBA player's three pointer being so perfectly calibrated that after missing short on a few shots the assumption was immediately "there is something wrong with this court" and not "there is something wrong with my shot"

scoot got contact lenses recently and while he was playing he kept rubbing his eyes etc so the glasses are there to prevent him from messing around with the lenses while on court iirc
