    Why do NBA Players Stick Their Mouthpiece Out?

    It's a new thing and it's not to breathe or safety purposes. They think that it looks cool. I think that it's totally annoying. Do you ever see old school players or even players like Kobe Bryant doing that? Of course not

    Hell, my brother had to get some surgery done on his gums and teeth b/c he took an elbow and that was when he was 13 or so. Imagine the kind of damage Lebron's elbow could do to your face without a mouth piece.

    Clearly you fatasses never played a competitive sport at a high level, they aren't doing it for looks and show. When you have a mouth piece in, it builds up saliva and is kind of a unnatural feeling in your mouth, so when ever you get the chance you want to take it out.

    People have issues if they let something like this bother them.

    Habit forming. I used to chew on the laces of my glove between pitching.

    I thought they said the mouthpieces the Saints wore made you more coordinated and jump higher?

    Kobe doesn't wear a mouthpiece. Stop trying to psychoanalyze athletes. "They're trying to look cool"

    You're brain is small

    Thanks

    same story in every sport, good responses here
    hard to talk to teammates, etc with it in

    look at quarterbacks, some will take it out and put it back in every snap, chin strap too

    just an uncomfortable thing

    Sounds about right...LeBron James now has a ring so, people need something else to criticize in this league...

    ...why not go after the players' safety equipment

    And as far as the actual discussion, its a useless question. Its like asking why do poker players shuffle their chips when sitting at a poker table?

    Agreed, is this seriously worthy of a thread? OP obviously hasn't played a competitive sport with a mouthpiece in, regardless it's such a minute thing to be bothered by.
