    Brands over the elbow not allowed anynore?...

    i've notice quite a few players (Kobe, KG and Tmac to name a few), no longer wear the arm bands over their elbows. is this something NBA has outlawed or is it just me?...
    I am glad I got the Buell- I love riding it, I love the oddball looks I get on the road- I love people asking "What IS that thing?" I love flying into a corner WAY too hot, scared spitless and sure I'll never hold it at this speed- and hearing the bike whisper "Sissy!"...

    yeah that jack*** David Stern won't let players wear anything on their arms over their elbows, I believe either Jermaine O'Neal or Ben Wallace got fined because they ignored the rule at the begining of the season

      Is under their elbow ok? A little above the wrist, but under the elbow.

      That's where Pierce wheres his.

          What is the point of not allowing guys to wear it over the elbow?

          What is the point of banning that?

                Stern is a bitch! Thats why, he has to be in control of everything. I cant wait for the day the union grows a sack and gets rid of him!

                  Stern is proving those of us who hated the dress code because of what it really is trying to do look more more right everyday.

                    whats the point of wearing a band above your elbow? i like that Stern is cracking down and trying to make the league look respectable.

                      Explain to me how wearing a band over your elbow makes you look disrespectful?

                        guess what i was trying to say, is having the players look more in uniform. look more as a team, not having one guy with bands above his elbows and stand out more from his team.. i dunno, just my thoughts.

                          As long as you got 5 guys wearing one jersey and 5 guys wearing another jersey, they look like a team. Wrist/arm/headbands have nothing to do with it.

                            It's funny how nobody complained about the teams not looking like teams until now. Michael Jordan had longer shorts, did you complain that he was trying to stand out from his team?

                            If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                              You serious? Wow. I bet you loved Michael Jordan and it was fine his wristband on his elbow and Pippen with his way passed his elbow, guess he wasnt a team player because his said PIP right? There is no way to support this jackass move by stern!
