Quick Question #1: What's with Trey Burke's "sleeve"?

By the way guys - FYI - it seems Trey is now wearing the sleeve on "the other" arm... so I think we can pretty much rule out the tattoo hiding theory.


Wonder why he keeps switching arms???

This is just weird.

Does anyone know if he sleeved up in college?

Did the sleeve move around, come and go then too?

Does anyone know if he switched the tattoo to that arm? Like how deron switched the tattoo from something ugly to something equally as ugly?

No he didn't have any sleeve in college. That's the point of this thread/question.


Why sleeve? Why now? Why wear it on the right in 1 game, nothing in 1 game, and wear it on the left of another game?? Will we ever see a game when he eventually wears 2 sleeves?


Why Why Why Why???!!!!
 
Nikkk I think you better make a table or chart or something. Sleeve or no, right or left, home or away, W or L and individual points, assists and rebounds.

A complex and detailed chart kept over several weeks may be the only way to determine any discernible pattern.

Thanks GVC for your contribution. Rep'd.


Looking at the trend so far it seems like the left sleeve is the one that's working for him ... let's see if he will keep using it.


My personal theory for the advantage of the left sleeve is when he's fending off his defender on the drive, the left sleeve seems to work quite well in keeping that left arm protected and he's able to fend them off easier - hence an easier and smoother shot with the right arm.

Let's hope that Trey recognizes this

Another strong performance for the Left Sleeve Camp. Two career high in points back-to-back.


I think we're onto something here folks.
