    rofl CB32, Rip doesn't wear it out of superstition. Rip HAS to wear it. If Rip breaks his nose again, he can't recover- he's used up his cartiledge.Anyone else think BCB seems more hostile recently than usual? ...

I don't remember him breaking his nose before his break 2 years ago. :dunno: I'm not on staff anymore so I can be more colorfull...or...more like myself. :winkglasses:

    You are both right... he first wore it because doctors told him that he had no more cartilage left in his nose, and that if he broke it again he would not be able to play basketball anymore or something. Then Rip started playing so well with it that he basically kept it on because of that...

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Detroit's shooting guard considers the device protecting a nose that has been broken three times as simply another piece of equipment."It's just like a headband now," Hamilton said Wednesday. "I wore it all last year. This year, I wear it because I didn't want to have setbacks, because having to have two surgeries last year wasn't cool at all."</div>and another one: http://www.nba.com/features/mask_photos_050103.html
