    Anyone else noticed this? I've seen him do this many times now. He does this every time-out or a stoppage in play. It shows that he's still a kid in some ways. But it's pretty annoying to watch especially if you imagine that he touches sweaty bodies and dirty ball with that hand.

    I think this sompares to some players shaking before gametime (ask Dez), you just get caught up in the moment. We often time look up to these athletes like they are perfect when in fact they are just as human as the rest of us.

    If I saw him in a beauty salon, then I would be worried.

    Yeah I've seen him do it. Got some pics of him biting his nails somewhere in my computer. Anyway i think he started doing this at of nervousness and now it's become a habit. I don't see nothing wrong with it really. I do it before a game.

    :mrgreen: I notice that to!! LOL that is sooo funny there is a topic about it.

    I was thinking man he should watch because if he rips off his nail wrong he will get a hang nail in the middle of a game and his shot will be really off!! [​IMG]

    haha...I didn't mean it to sound that way...hehehe...but still...it's not very hygienic...but if it releases some of his nervousness (which clearly shows when he's doing it) then so be it...it's just that I see him do that everytime there's a stoppage in play...he'll bite his nails...then look at it to see if he's done a great job doing it...

    It's natural, as KJ said, he's only human. Plus he has a right to be nervous, he has alot of weight and responsibility on his shoulders.

    <strike>Lebron probably whacks off too</strike>. Let's start topics about everything he does. Truman Show with a black-American focus.

    Yeah, clean up your act, lol.

    And really, I don't think he's actually biting his nails. With the given angles he hold his fingers at, he's probably doing what I do - biting at the skin on the sides of the nails.

    Thats the fans just looking up to these players like they should be perfect, that's all.
