    Are you taking about the tape on his shoulders?

    I think it's more preventative and for muscle support than it is for an injury. Means less strain on his shoulder muscles when he's fighting for boards and what not. Then again I'm not a doctor...but I did stay at a holiday inn last night.

    Yeah I figured it was some kind of muscle relaxer. Thanks!

    It's a tribute to the bald spot on the back of Rasheed's head.

    Those straps aren't circular. He must have seen either dandruff or lice.

    Circular marks or tape? Circular marks are from a form of suction that increases circulation to that particular spot on the body. Kaman has done it before as well.

    They looked much smaller and darker than cupping marks, like little black stickers. I noticed Meyers had a few on his left palm last night too. Maybe KTape in small sticker size?

    It's Black History Month. Give the white guys credit for trying to blend in. Like cheetah spots.

    It's a required badge from the Illuminati that he's Duke blue blood royalty. He'll even begin to wear that to coaching interviews after he retires.

    When you're as tall as Plumlee, birds land on you and take a crap.
