Can someone explain why Kobe is wearing those stocking or whatever they are? nobody seems to know, i caught like 3 sports shows mentioning it but none of them could come up with a real answer. When I first saw them i thougth he was just wearing some really high socks. is this a new trend for him or something? the ballet look.
It helps keep his leg muscles warm so they are looser and lowers the chances of pulling a hamstring or getting muscle spasms or leg cramps.
That's funny lol....Superman wears tights...and we all know that the real Superman lives on the West coast, and not the East oh- and amador08, that chick u got as ur pics pretty hot
She better be; that chick is Jessica Alba.... Has anyone seen her pics from the the Deep Blue promos? WOW!!!!!!!!
He can wear w/e he wants as long as he keeps playing the way he is right now, he is seriously tearing it up and he is playin MVP type basketball.
Kobe is not doing that good so far, in my eyes. He is throwing 25+ shots up a game and scoring about 32-33 PPG, which is eh.., but like somebody else said Superman wears tights so maybe that is the real reason, just maybe.
Kobe is taking a lot of shots, but he's scoring a lot as well. And he's making almost 50% (49.4%) so the lakers really can't complain. If he would take the ball into the post more, and drive to the hoop he would get to the foul line more, and therefor score more on less shots. He could seriously be scoring 40+ a game if he drove to the hoop more. As the season goes on his legs will get tired, and his shots will become flat, he's hitting the jumpers now but it's not going to last....

He's also getting to the line 8.7 times a game. The only area Kobe needs to improve on are his turnovers. He's averaging 4.3 of those, I'd like to see him get it down between 3.5 or 3.0 per game.
Well over the summer he was working on speed training as well as the science (kinesthetics?) to maintain his body and prolong his prime years. It could be those stockings are part of it.
I couldn't care if he wore slippers while playing ball. As long as he continues to play the way he's playing, I'm not complaining.
