not trying to start a war or anything, but you would have a higher chance in rolling your ankle in the lebron's... they're higher off the ground (that's what really matters, cut of the shoe doesn't) than kobe's or hyperfuse (cause of airmax).
so if you are really worried about your ankles, get the hyperfuse or other shoes that are low to the ground.

I say the same every page I see a pic with that green bday beanie. I hit page down quick as i can to bypass it. We get it... you have MN's and you like packers.
Some one needs to steal that beanie and burn it.

In my opinion as a player, the Lebron 9s provide excellent ankle support (I wear ankle braces with mine as I've just sprained my ankle too). But even without the braces the Lebron 9s feel alot more stable and supportive than the Kobe VIs.
I know all the arguments about lows vs mids or lows vs highs... But IMHO highs are really the way to go once you've rolled your ankle once. Once you've rolled it there's a much higher chance of rolling it again. Pick up the Lebron 9s and some ankle guards and you will feel stronger and more confident on the court. As a side note, it's interesting that the new Kobe VII's have some "ankle support".
As for the grip, the clear soles (on my chinas) feel slippery indoors, but the normal soles (on my breds) feel great indoors. Lots of grip even though there is no ''squeek''.
Hope that''s been somewhat helpful!

I don't agree with this at all. I tried to buy into the lower to the ground, less chance of rolling your ankle but so far I've rolled my ankle more in Kobes (I, IV and V) then I have with shoes like the Lebron 8. I like the feeling of having some sort of support on my ankle to give me feedback when my ankle is about to roll. I find with low cut Kobes and even the Lebron 7 PS, I didn't get the ankle feedback. Plus I like Lebrons for playing because they have more cushioning. I've played for hours in the Lebron 8 ( 3 versions) and my knees would feel alright while the years before when I would do that in Kobes, my knees would be super sore.

Agreed...
The point is some people have weaker ankles than others and not to say frail. Just not as strong. Some shoes having the more profound outriggers really do help from rolling and the ankle rolling is simply from turning the ankle.
You step on someone's foot.. an outrigger hi from the ground or low to the ground aint helping. You are rolling it.
Not sure if anyone has ever seen dudes land FLAT on their feet and their ankle just turned. Mine has done that and its from having rolled my ankle alot coming up. It just happens sometimes.
