High top shoes don't reduce ankle injuries. Taping does though. Its's not his shoes. It's actually better for your foot if the shoe did give out and allow your ankle to roll the way it would naturally. So no, it's not his shoes. Listen, injuries can also occur on turf, grass, hardwood, etc from stopping or doing some movement that is just exacerbated by any shoe, cleat, whatever on that surface. His foot got hung up on the floor, it happens.
No, it's stupidly bold to be a sheep and think that it must be his shoes. This is just ridiculous. My friend who is a brain surgeon at OSU and a basketball junkie said to me two weeks ago "Rose is hurt again, he's done." And went on to say exactly what I'm saying. That he's going to be plagued with injuries from his first injury. I'll trust my common sense and the opinion of a brain surgeon over a bunch of zit faced morons.

Watching that replay, it looked like a small ankle tweak.

Re: Has Anyone Had As Many Injuries As D-Rose Wearing Nikes???
[QUOTE=chocolatethunder]I cannot believe the stupidity in this thread. While shoes w lots of arch support it no arch support could cause problems like PF in some people, the likelihood of his shoes causing his acl injury and subsequent injuries are very small. What is much more likely is that he has a biomechanical problem (some type of imbalance) that caused his first injury and a resulting imbalamce from that injury that is helping cause these subsequent injuries. That happens sometimes with guys who suffer big injuries in their legs and back. FILA didn't injure grant Hill and Nike didnt injure Durant and Oden and Bynum.[/QUOTE]
:applause:
[QUOTE=Bless Mathews]Noah wore bogus ass le coq de sportiff. Mainly because his dad wore them. They are mainly tennis shoes. He had planter flasciutus. He actually sued them. Lol.
[/QUOTE]
He sued them because they owed him money. As for PF, he just says he believes they might contributed to his development of PF. The correlation was not confirmed and the shoe quality was not the reason he sued the company for. I actually owned a pair of his shoes and they were decent. They were built closer to the 90s basketball shoes so that means no fancy cushioning (which can be counterproductive), but the quality of the materials was much better than what you would get on your retro Js and many players play in those. Not to mention that a lot of NBA players play in foamposites which are terrible to play basketball in and they do just fine.

Re: Has Anyone Had As Many Injuries As D-Rose Wearing Nikes???
[QUOTE=chocolatethunder]Yes it can be overlooked because people have injuries all the time and play in all kinds of shoes. This is just some bullshit theory that a bunch of uninformed kids picked up on and won't let go of. The guy suffered one injury that led to a bunch of subsequent injuries, that has nothing to do with his shoes. Yao had foot injuries so it must surely have been his shoes right? And T-Mac's that must have been his shoes as well? And Oden? And Bynum? and Brandon Roy? Penny? People get injuries all the time. This is a very obvious case of a guy getting injured and compensating and causing other injuries. A succession of injuries stemming from one injury is not uncommon and happens all the time. Why everyone wants to put it down to Roses shoes is totally stupid and not fair to him and pointless.[/QUOTE]
I don't think it's that far-fetched to be honest. I've played in a ton of differents shoes & brands and trust me it can make a big difference. Don't get me wrong I don't believe you're going to tear your acl by playing in Adidas or any other brand because that has some other reasons as you correctly mentioned but what happened to Rose the other night clearly looks like a shoe-issue to me. Furthermore if I remember correctly he sprained his ankle as soon as he put on those cut-down Adidas Crazylights 2-3 years ago. I think he never wore them again afterwards.

Cool, you do know that high tops don't prevent you from rolling your ankle right? Wow, so a guy puts on new shoes and gets injured and decides that those shoes must have caused the injury and so he never wears them again. Ok great. So I got gas from a gas station that I never go to and then my car broke down so clearly it must have been that gas that made my car break down. You're logic and reasoning are incredible. Look for a future in academics.

exactly this...you can't overlook the possibility is all I'm saying, the shoe gave away at some point. whether it be due to a wet floor allowing no grip or simply malfunction on the shoes part, and we aren't even talking of his ankle, it's a factor.
chocolate even indicated it being a very small probability to this, though probable :rolleyes:...now he wants to throw in his OSU brain surgeon specialist about assessing a foot injury. where's your orthopedic and podiatry friends to lend their knowledge? :facepalm

Ok smart guy, let's talk about podiatry. Podiatrists aren't even MDs in most cases you moron. You really made yourself look smart there. My friend who is the brain surgeon works all the time with orthos with athletes at OSU but I'm sure you knew that. More than half his surgeries involve the back and the spine not the brain but I'm sure that you knew that as well. You also knew that in dealing with back problems that all factors are taken in to account such as hamstring and lower leg problems/imbalances etc, right? Sure you did because you're smart.
Ok, please tell me what about Nikes caused Pennys injury or Odens or Tmac or whoever else had awful injuries in them. So lets see, these shoes are so bad that they gave way to cause not only an ACL tear but also a meniscus tear and then two ankle sprains and now a hamstring injury. Makes sense to me.
I said the possibility being small as in almost impossible just because I would never rule anything out but it's almost zero. If you think that his shoes caused his injuries, then you're an absolute moron. What more can I say. Never mind that hightop shoes have been shown to not prevent ankle injuries but yes, somehow his shoes are ruining his career. Please tell me how Nash's Nikes have ruined the end of his career. Seems odd that all his injuries have happened in those shoes.

Most of the idiots on here wouldn't know what neurosurgery is but they know what a brain surgeon is. Unlike orthopedics, a neurosurgeon is often referred to as a "brain surgeon". Yes an overwhelming majority of podiatrists are not MDs, there is nothing misleading about my statement. And no, something being a remote possibility doesn't make it "probable". Yes there is a possibility that you could die in a plane crash but that doesn't make it "probable" as you said. It's a possibility not a probability. "To dismiss it is falsified", nothing is "falsified". You might want to check your Funk and Wagnalls on that one. If you've ever diagnosed a problem or problem solved you consider all things and the things that are least likely to be of concern are given the least amount of attention for obvious reasons. You don't rule anything out just because it's the least possible but you don't give it the weight you would give things that are much more likely or of sounder reasoning. In the universe, almost anything is possible so nothing is ever completely ruled out without exhaustive research. But to take the least possible thing possible and to focus all of your energy on that one thing is foolish.

Ok, so our sample size is 20 total. That's really scientific. What you need to do is compile a list of all lower body injuries and the shoes they were wearing at the time they were injured. Then compare that to the proportion of adidas vs non adidas. If Adidas players were actually injured more you would have something that shows correlation. Anyone who has ever reviewed or been part of a study would also know that correlation does not equal causation. So you would then have devise a way that could possibly show causation. Good luck.

How about Steph Curry and his never ending ankle problems? Nike even went so far as gave him bunch of pairs of an older model because this was the only pair that he could wear comfortably. Now he wears Under Armour and his problems seem to be gone. Must be the Nikes, huh?
Really, this is beyond idiotic. Every athlete deals with injuries, though some may be smaller and we don't hear about them as much because he plays through. There's no correlation between the type of shoe someone wore and his injury. If there was any, even if there was a smaller chance certain model could cause potential injuries, the medical staff would prevent players to wear it. I remember that in many teams the doctors wouldn't allow the players to wear the first generation of Nike Hyperfuse shoes because they didn't consider the safe.
