Wall out 8 weeks with injury to patella

^^^^^Trade Wall for some unknown--and unproven--draft picks when he and Beal have the potential to become one of the best young backcourt tandems in the NBA? I don't think so.

All i could find is this one where he is wearing some kind of robot pants and he is sporting a sizeable erection which appears to be attatched to some sort of suction device. NBA players have it good... He looks a little tubby in the stomach though, but then again he always has. He's a thick guy. He was never "ripped" like Wall imo. You are going to notice the weight gain in Wall because he had such a low body fat % when he got injured.

I still blame his mommas cooking though.

Bulls medical staff knows how to treat a player right. Wizards medical staff would have amputated it.

I love Adidas in terms of basketball so I'm glad to hear Wall got transfered over. If Wall does well he can earn a shoe deal with them, but if Adidas gives you a signature shoe then it means your marketing is going to be through the roof, so he's got a lot to do to earn it. With Dwight injured and Rose coming back from injury there's a lot of room for Wall to steal some of that shine.

D.Rose in September with his body double :rofl:

After Heat game last Friday.

D.Rose did a lot of upper body work while injured not sure it was a good ideal putting on additional muscle for a guy who was already pretty strong and relied on his quickness prior to the injury.

Pre-injury Wall AKA The One Man Fast Break

Post-injury Wall AKA The One Man Breakfast? Or is it The One Man Better Fast? Hopefully the latter.

LOL... I wonder if Wall checks these boards

"WTF these guys posting photos of me shirtless? Commenting on my physique?"

Remember a few years back when hyperbaric chambers were all the rage? If Rose comes back bigger and better as indicated in the photo, dudes are going to be clamoring for that treatment.

I did that once!

Beneficial but not worth the expense. Also flammable!

I bet he probably does.

If you were John Wall you know fans...

Hit shots and even "haters" who want you traded will smile.

Sports are about the team winning and fans are fair-weathered. They care about you for athletic performance, but let's face it--you have talent and athleticism they don't have. You're making money they'll never make. Your audiences is worldwide and your potential to reach others is magnified by media and endorsements.

Lessons to learn from this thread - pictures can be very misleading, and posed pictures are very different from unposed pictures. The proof will be in the pudding - so to speak - when we get to see Wall play on Saturday.

Ever since Beal was drafted I've being waiting with anticipation to watch Beal and Wall together. It's easily the most excited I've been all season so far.

the weight gain is a non story now after looking at that video of his practice wednesday. I'd argue he looks better than he ever has and has added significant muscle.

WizarDynasty · Post #579 » by **WizarDynasty** » Fri Jan 11, 2013 1:44 pm

his handles still look horrible and he could have perfected it in his off time. He is not a half court player and doesn't have the aptitude to understand how to improve his weakness. Temple has better handles than wall. I would trade wall if we could get equal value.
He is scorer with the handles of a shooting guard and he plays reckless so his knee is only going to get worse. I just don't see the bbiq and dedication to improving his handle and or he just doesn't know how which is a red flag in it self about his bbiq.
