The same thing was discovered way back when by the NHL’s goalies. The masks offered a layer of protection that gave their goalies the ability to play at a level without a fear of being injured. The first goalie to wear one was clowned on, but the moment the other teams saw how he no longer feared the potential facial injuries and outperformed everyone, EVERY goalie from there on wore a mask. There isn’t some curse or majik ju-ju from these NBA masks. It’s simply giving the players more courage to take more risks because of their new layer of physical protection.

It's simple psychology, wearing a mask makes them feel protected, and therefore likely to play more aggressively and take more risks. Get everyone to wear masks and the game will be better for it. Better yet, try an experiment, get them to play in football gear.

Interesting effect really. Studies have shown that drivers who recieved an extra training tend to cause more accidents because they think they are more capable now and drive more reckless. I think there's a similar effect going on here. The mask protects them and there is less chance of further injury. Plus the boosted confidence. On the enemy's side you also have 3 things to consider. 1: The mask is a sign of injury. So going at it full force would be poor sportsmanship So the first couple of games the enemy players probably held back 2: Pressure. Masked players are known to perform great deeds. Going up against one is sure to cause a whole lot of pressure because everyone expects you to lose. 3: Supersticion. The player stepping on and trying to break the mask is a sign of somewhat believing in said curse turning this into a selffulfilling prophicy. If the player believes he can not win as long as his oponent is wearing a mask he dooms himself to failure.
@dr.doeboy27354 жыл бұрын
Realistically, probably two reasons. One, as you said, all eyes are on the person wearing the mask. Two, players probably feel like they have an extra layer of protection and feel like they're invincible, especially looking at the history of the mask.

Few possibilities: - They played harder because they felt safer. - The other players were easier on them because they didn't want to hurt them. - The masks are subconsciously intimidating causing their opponents to play more passively. - Those wearing the mask makes them play harder because they want to live up to the legend. Could be a mixture of these things or just a coincidence.

it seems like a combination of self confidence and the effect the mask's have on an opponent, may it be an internal self caution due to knowing they are wearing due to injury, or be it the concept of the curse. as that one game where the team went in ready to play hard against the mask causes the mask player to be less self confident as they focused him as well as the team being more focused on him, once someone showed they feared the mask by trying to break it, the masks confidence came back and the fear of the curse over took the enemy team again. it really just seems like mental play, like a mind game.

Spartans wore masks and helmets designed to tunnel their vision and shallow their view. This eliminated distractions and some of the fear during the battle.

I think other players were more likely to look at the mask, instead of a player. Like its so unique, that you instictivly look at it. If your opponents are a bit desoriented, you feel "safer" and everything is easier for you, becouse your opponents are a bit worse. Imagine walking on sidewalk and passing somebody with blue hair. Even if you dont care/dont want to look, you still gona look at him/her. Same with mask.

Imagine how a football player would play if you took away their helmet… Or how a driver would drive if you had a loaded gun pointed at their head with a hair trigger… If you perceive your situation to be more safe, you take more risks, if more risky, you keep it safe.

Mental games really do a lot. The mask is really intimidating, esp if you're face to face with the homie.

Exactly, just what I was thinking. It happened to only these specific players. It's just a coincidence because the players who wore the mask were already pretty good. No curse at all.

From my opinion, I think when the injured players wear the mask, they get more confident and it makes them feel invincible and safe. They feel secured with the mask on and thus much braver to drive, dunk, defend, etc.

When you break your nose you can’t smell so you lose one sense so you get a boost in all senses but when they wore it more the face got more used to not having the smell so they would automatically get it.
