Rondo's ankles

[DorfonCeltics]

Can this kid please start wearing high top sneakers? Nobody should be wearing low top sneakers in the NBA. No wonder he's rolled both ankles in the last week. In addition to the sneakers Rajon needs to either get his ankes taped every game or wear braces on both feet. I don't understand why more players don't. It should be mandatory. If I were Doc no player would enter the game without his ankles first being taped or properly braced. Am I the only one who thinks this is absurd?

He should be wearing true high tops and have his anckles taped. Why aren't they sitting this guy to let him rest those anckles?

Every professional basketball player should have his ankles taped. I am amazed very time I hear a player isn`t taped...

If he tapes them, he can still wear low tops. He probably feels more comfortable in them or provide him with more foot control.

Absolutely. Al Jefferson was the classic case of a guy who didn't tape and it's bit him in the arse. Don't want to see the same with Rondo....hell when I played in **** SCHOOL we all taped our ankles!!
