    Pickup basketball stereotypes.

    Air Jordan 38

    I think it’s because they sat so flat from heel to toe - almost like my forefoot was higher than the heel. Took me a few games to dial in.

    Air Jordan 38

    @grittyman I ended up going down half because the upper was roomy and soft. Fit way better for me.

    Thank you. I’m not that confident - I was honestly worried about JMU. Houston scares me because of the physicality - Tennessee destroyed Duke last year playing that way.

    kyrie irving + anta basketball

    Agree - the EP was way better. Grabbed a few off stockx for about half retail plus fees. I would say the Kai 1 fits like the Nike 6/7/infinity.

    Pickup basketball stereotypes.

    I won’t say names because they are still in the business, but one was waaaay overweight and couldn’t make a layup, only played one game and sat out. The other worked for Sole Collector and would not play in the open runs. Stayed on a side goal and kept taking two dribble layups like he was...
