Anthony Davis Discussion: Only Player On Both All NBA + All Def

AD wore goggles today at practice and Redick said "they looked great" but AD says he won't wear 'em vs. MEM.

AD told McMenamin he tried goggles before the 2020 bubble season but abandoned them "after 20 seconds of a game." McMenamin says "Matter of preference."

"I wore goggles for three years when I was younger," Davis said, alluding to his bespectacled high school look. "I just don't want to [now], to be honest. Obviously, the doctors said I didn't have to. ... If it gets to that point where my eye doctor tells me that I need to wear them, then of course I will. But I've been cleared to go out and play without them."

Paging: Lakers staff who will put pressure on AD's eye doctor to tell him he NEEDS to wear goggles.

My source for this is here.

 

A big problem is some of these clowns don’t trim their fingernails as evidenced by all the gouges and scars on players’ bodies. One of those guys catches him just “wrong” and it could rip an eyeball open, irregardless of what his doctor says about their current health. And yeah he’s thinking about the old Kareem goggles not what types could be a lot easier to wear.

 

the league really needs to send out a memo about players cutting their nails and enforce it somehow

look at jokic after every game and his arms/back are covered with cuts

 

AD should just wear goggles and not the ones JJ wears after every glass of Red wine

 

I remember seeing a picture of Pau Gasol after the 2009 finals after going up against Dawite and he looked like he had fought a grizzly bear.

 

I thought Austin Carr used to wear some cool looking goggles myself. Darth Vader black ones, kind of looked like spiffy shades.More like visors than goggles. Marshawn Lynch used to wear similar ones too.

AD's eyebrows are so thick, he might sweat a lot into them, and fog em up or something.

 

AD thinks goggles are uncool smh some childhood trauma from all the teasing.

 

I saw what that ATL rookie did to Lebron’s bicep, scraped all the skin like a lash from a whip

 

Lol..he has enough money, to get him a custom made, pair of Versace eye shields if he likes.

 

the officiating involving him was really bad last night. you'd have thought edey was the perennial all nba player and AD the rook. also seemed like he really didn't want to be the offensive focal point, which i also chalked up to the eye, as it was clearly bothering him from the start.

 

We have to get this guy another center.
