Support Ronny's Ankles!

Ronny Turiaf injured his ankle last night vs the big frontline of the Cavs - Shaq, Ilgauskas, Varejao, Hickson, and James. I was lucky to be at the game, but as he was getting helped off the court, I noticed something interesting, low top shoes!

Why is he wearing low top shoes? Why would a big man wear low top shoes? Check out the picture below. The tops of his shoes are below his ankles. Can someone buy him some high tops or some 3/4's? Am I crazy?

The result of wearing these shoes after the jump.
