Last year in a VG game I had a player with the old fashion knee pads. She was a guard.
Late in the first quarter she was guarding her opponent and lunged for the ball as her opponent was dribbling just crossing the division line - and she missed the ball. She fell towards the backcourt and went down on both knees, quickly pivoted, and ran back to cover her opponent.
I thought WOW, a player actually wearing a piece of equipment to prevent injury AND she knew how to use them. Novel.
Now, back to the discussion on tights and sleeves.
