this is now a thing

or it will be as of sometime this week

apparently the sock-esque protuberance is a "calf-length compression sleeve" that i guess is built into these shoes

yeah durant wore them for warmups but hasn't warn them in a game yet iirc

Wouldn't that cause more knee injuries / wear+tear?

not sure why it would? just socks more or less.

I remember reading somewhere that the more you immobilize the ankles, the more stress goes into the knees. So if they're just compression socks, maybe not?

this is going to end with players in full body compression iron man/ greenscreen suits up to their necks and in 2023 some young hotshot will start covering his head and then THAT'S gonna be a thing

durant looks like a double amputee there

logo patch approved. supposedly gonna bring an extra 100 milli + in per year.

BREAKING: Adam Silver said it's likely Hornets will have Brand Jordan logo on jerseys in 2017-18, not the Nike logo like rest of league.

love my brands

wow p nice imo

Font is ugly but otherwise looks pretty good IMO.

im kinda feeling the font tho wldve been better if they went all the way blocky for that 8-bit look

The crown is hella bizarre to me

its supposed to depict depth but just ends up looking weird and abstract

file under inspired by stussy

http://i.imgur.com/aQqF3l9.png

unbelievable, they wearing them at home too!

that crown reminds me of

http://i.imgur.com/qmzMUij.jpg

appropriate to the kings basketball organisation

with the full name, i like it but with just "SAC" it looks a bit like a distended testicle and once seen that cannot be unseen

buzz city

pls stop

Really like the color scheme of the buzz city unis. Actually like everything about those minus the sleeves and the fact that they say buzz city.

guy who doesn't live in Charlotte: hey I'm thinking of visiting Charlotte, what's the most notable thing about your town
Charlotte guy: we have so many bees that we call it buzz city. We love our fantastic bees.

Bees are v important haven't u heard they are all dying

its official

nice, i like it a lot more with the white outline

interested to see what they come up w for unis

yeah it makes way more sense with the white outline. i thought the crown looked random as fuck otherwise.

http://i.imgur.com/cYsXmUL.png

Very nice! I mean the logo, not the tattoos.

lol http://newsok.com/article/5495252

russ is so weird

the weirdest

cn we talk abt those uniforms for a sec theyre like the least basketball uniform uniforms ever they look like a white tee, i think they shd go all the way w it tho all white except team/name/number

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CheG_TyUoAAXmEU.jpg

lmao love it, they should all wear damn daniels with it as well

those white ones are prob the best okc unis but the stripes on the pants are nonsensical. it's like someone designed good uniforms and was like "wait these are for okc they have to be hideous in some way"

those road blues are horrible too

except for this

looks like they have some stars on the side

a lot of these ruined by ad patches of course but maybe none more egregious than the pacers one:

the official shoe of the pr**d b*ys

hey be nice

i dont play nice, i play to win B-)

those shoes.....my eyes

its funny his hair has become his trademark since everyone knows robyn manages that, this is the real gordon, a gamer

me in college after not getting a haircut for a couple months

Luka doesn’t have a shoe deal which seems like a whoopsie by the shoe companies

is he marketable here tho?

he needs to go adidas since hes a slav

Doncic is kind of unprecedented so far so I’m not gonna assume his marketability is typical for a euro star

hes amazing and very entertaining at basketball and has a big charming personality imo we will be watching dumb sprite commercials w him for years to come

wonder if he just didnt get a shoe offer he liked, one wld think one of the companies wld throw some standard few million dollars at him for the euro market alone

obviously he should join kahwi at new balance

lif you know anything about what adidas means to the slavic people the choice is clear

guess he had a nike deal in euro

Doncic who was recently named SI’s Breakout Player of the Year is in position to capitalize on a new sneaker deal after his two-year deal with Nike expired before the season.

Per The Dallas Morning News, Luka said:

“Yeah, I’m a free agent now. So we’ll see what we do.”

“For me, it’s so important because, as you know, I love shoes. I have so many shoes. It’s very important, this deal.

maybe he bet on himself and now can control the price

yeah theyre prob just working on it

luka shoe talk about halfway through this

nike deal ran through his rookie year

I've been really into playing hoops for the past few months for the first time since I was in middle school and I just got my first pair of basketball kicks. Still can't dunk but they're pretty comfy.

Lakers being good again is actually bad for basketball
