either the 2k5 or kobe 1 but make sure you wear ankle supports of some kind with if you choose one of those two.

 

[king g703]

none

LBZV THE BEST EVER

 

[size twelve]

honestly bro, all of those suck for basketball.


i'ma take a pass on all of them.

 

[mikejordache23]

^ very insightful post bro.

I chose the ZK1. I think a few factors are what position you play,your weight, and what surface you play on.

ZK1 is what I am currently playing in, great comfort, not the best ankle support,good traction,durable.

LBJIV is very heavy imo,bulky,comfortable yes but feels restrictive.

HURACHE2K5 comfortable,good ankle support,decent traction imo,but the protruding heel hurt my shins for some reason when I balled in them.

cant comment on the other 2 srry.

 

[ed2324]

the Zoom BB 1 or 2 if u play indoors

 

[r0biiin]

ZK1.

 

[dcortes23]

The new kobes are sick for hoop too!!! Just copped a pair the other day!!!

 

[abejd]

2k4 are way better than 2k5

 

[acbboyz84]

^ yeap. imo the good old 2k4s were the best shoes ever created for basketball players. Imagine if they have full length zoom like Lebron II, that would beinsane. I would buy 20 pairs and save it for the next 15-20 years.

 

[air sti]

the kobes

 

[daddyrabbit251]

2k5s will do it 4 me, everyone has different feet wen i really comes down to it, but to the AJ3?????? U better off ballin in sum tims imo

 

[g2p0]

ZK1's. The III's shouldn't even be on this list.

 

[mike23theking]

Out of the shoes you have listed, I've used 3 of them... 2K5, AJ III, LBJ IV.

I'm a sucker for ankle straps, regardless if they help or not so I'm already for the 2K5/LBJ IV. The III's aren't as bad as people say theyare, but you will lose out on ankle support. I played in the Lebrons ONCE. Luckily, I still brought my 2K5's just in case and I ended up switching shoes athalftime. If you don't mind bricks or ankle weights, then you won't have a problem w/ the Lebrons.

I think all 3 are comfortable, but I'm currently using the 2K5's so I'm biased. I like them so much I still haven't found a shoe to replacethem. I'm hoping the BB2's will be that shoe.

Hope this helps.

If I had to pick from the shoes you listed, I'd go with the 2K5s, I've balled in these alot and the traction, lateral support and weight are spot onbut the strap could do with being a pull through for better lock down.

Don't even consider the AJ IIIs

 

[storm ryder]

I love the XX2 in terms of all around performance. Sure the Kobes and 2K5's are a bit lower to the ground and have some more responsiveness and bounce. Butthe XX2 gives a bit more ankle support.

I don't really know what you look for in your shoes, but I wouldn't suggest the Zoom Lebron IV or the Air Jordan III.
