Sleeve

[pourcyne]

Curious about the basketball sleeve worn by Citizen Kane.

Does he have a bad elbow or is it just for looks?

I would assume it is for soreness. I have tendinitis in my right arm and wear a Derek Rose sleeve. Hasn't helped my vertical.

Pump a little helium inside that sleeve.

You don't wear it to cover up your hood tats?

Without looking back at photos from last year, I think McGee wore one too?

Because he's a thug.

Yup, and it's all for looks.

Wait...people wear sleeves on their arms and legs?? Must be the cool NEW trend for kids.

Seems like Anthony Booker wore one. My nickname for him at the time was "prom glove". But I meant it lovingly.

I was just curious, because Wikipedia says that Allen Iverson, who started the trend, did so because of bursitis.

(What? It's not true? But I read it on the Internet!!!)

The most telling part of that AI video is the very end when he, a PG, asks incredulously, "How can I make my teammates any better at practice?!" He never got it.
