I was called for a turnover in our Rec league championship last week for running out of bounds on the baseline while making a cut. Ref blew the whistle, called me for out of bounds ( I did not have the ball), and explained it at halftime that they call out of bounds to keep the players on the...

Check out my review of the new shoe from Hops, the Ol' Skool. It debuted in sketches on this site some time back and is finally being geared up for a nationwide Fall 2010 push. Definitely a good start.
Anybody tried these yet for basketball? They have forefoot Lunarlite, Heel Zoom, Flywire, and low-cut, almost a tennis Kobe, with full-foot herringbone traction. I found a pair in my size for $30 at Ross, and was wondering how they held up.
Unexplained Phenomena?
Maybe not, but the Supernatural Creator is definitely the next step in a great concept
Most great ideas follow a long line of progression. Very rare is the concept that is solid gold on the first try. Following this concept, the adidas Supernatural Creator follows...
Jordan 16.5
My annual Christmas shoe purchase this year came down to three shoes: Lebron VII, Jordan 16.5, and lastyear's CP3.II. Sorry, no adidas yet, still holding out for the Supernaturals to hit over the U.S. (I still hate you Nene). Since the Lebron's are still$160 (and I haven't really...
Nike Blue Chip II review
Most of you know me and my reviews, so I will spare you my details. I picked this shoe up from mybrother-in-law, who is a high school coach, and they bought these for fall practices and the pre-district games.
The first thing I noticed out of the box is the upgrade in...
I know, 15 years too late, but I just watched it for about the hundredth time last night. From Q, an original sneakerhead, to my man Special Ed playingbaby's-momma's boyfriend, to Tupac starting his " I am a bad-a--" slide by playing Bishop. I think this movie role completely changed hiswhole...
I saw these last night at Champs and the manager said they were a Champs only exclusive. I have looked all over the Net this morning and can not find them. Thebody looks like the Alpha Force/Delta Force/Flight 89 that recently retroed. They had the Revolution sole with Flight 89 midsole, plastic...
I know Rock asked about these last week, but I thought I would post. The Ross stores around Dalls/Ft. Worth got shipments of Zoom BB1 TB colors in yesterday. Isaw white/orange, white/carolina, white/royal, white/navy, all in sizes 10.5-13. Priced at $40. Picked up two pair of white/royal myself.
First off, I only tried them on for about 10 minutes at Finish Line, so no actual game situation, so take this for what it's worth. The materials aredefinitely different, with a nu-buck lateral side and nylon ballistic mesh on the medial side. The tongue/medial side is a wrap tongue like the...
I just got these last night, and played about three hours (8 games to 15 by 2's and 1's) in themimmediately. First off, for those who haven't read my reviews, I am 5'10", 200 lb. point. Still play a driving game with kick out three's andtight defense. And away we go:
Right out of the box...
