 JERK! lol jk
I think the hip and back pads are pretty useless, but I've been kneed in the thigh before and got a dead leg so having the thigh padding definitely helps


I've been hip bumped/checked alot playing ball. Especially people who set screens allday and you rolling of them screens.

Here my take on Nike Pro Combat gear

I have 2 pairs of the shorts. I got them from Ross for like 8 and 14 dollars. I wear them when I play in my Basketball league games and when I'm playing pickup against better competition. 

They are alright, I basically wear them because I figure they may help and they arent restrictive at all. BUT......I don't think they are necessary at all unless you're a guy who's driving to the hoop alot, trying to dunk and drawing contact.  I've only seen a handful guys who truly fit that description. They definitely aren't worth that 80 dollar price tag Nike is trying to get for them especially when the standard Nike Compression shorts go for 30 dollars.

^^^ i agree that they aren't worth the $70-$75 retail tag, but they are well worth the Ross prices. i don't live near one and can't pick those up, but i did get a pair of the shorts for $40...and i think they were well worth that price for competitive ball. as you say, they're great for slashers, but they're also great for scrappy guys who take charges, dive for balls, etc. i played in a league with some older guys who play very physically (since they can't run as much), and the combat shorts saved me many quad shots and bruised tailbones.

I wear compression shorts every day. I wear compression/heat gear shirts everyday. I wear compression shorts when I workout because I don't want my junk all over the place!

Jordan wearing compression shorts back in the day is not the same as padded body armor sleeves on every joint of your body!

lol game over finally........... oh yea.......... wristbands do have a purpose though. they help you wipe off the sweat from your face instead of using your wet jersey.
