He’s boosting his trade value
This is from a nahco Libre quote, " The training staff is the best." Our players listen very well and follow our knowledge and experience. They all need to update their resume 's . We need a new group of trainers and coaching staff professionals. 😂
Ok so when is Frank or Cody gonna have a media discussion about there injuries.
Esp. for CODY, how the HOR sayin “going to reevaluate Melo” did they forget about Cody and Frank.
This answer from Lamelo made me mad. I agree 100% with Doug, where is the urgency? Where is some actions to get it better? Besides of course build a strong body even more… He NEEDS to try some
I think Lamelo needs to explore different materials for ankle braces like he needs to seriously think about long haul not throwing everything at the table rn
Walker with the referee warm up jacket
Trimming the beard and leaving the mustache is basically a scare tactic I employ against my wife at times 😅
Hes getting paid a max contract. Theres no way anyone on this planet is convincing me he cant find a successful brace. He has the money to create a CUSTOM BRACE, he has the money to do literally ANYTHING he can to make sure hes giving himself the best chance at staying healthy and his answers are making him sound like a BUM
Imagine how much worse things would be if they had drafted Scoot. It would be a nightmare. Miller was the correct pick.
Lamelo needs to talk to Steph Curry about ways to protect his ankle. Curry went through the same thing early in his career.
I’m going to stop talking about the braces… but I just have to say… the whole ball family always talks about “control what you can control”.. Melo can control himself wearing braces… he needs to do everything in his power to stay healthy and that’s one of the things he can do…5 or 6 ankle injuries (more than a couple on the right foot) is far too many to just be ok with going back in the floor the same way you’ve been doing.. you gotta change something other wise the same thing will keep happening (def of insanity right there) lmao I’m kidding but I’m also not… he’s worth millions PLUS hes a magician on the floor… you gotta keep your body protected man
Lamelo has enough resources to customize a new ankle brace design just for his movement and laced with micro tensions to strengthen where he needs strengthening.
Ball so nice he breaks his own ankles, Legend
I'll scream it from Australia as until my mouth bleeds.
Demarcus Cousins is a free agent.
Miller is a bucket!
