[dark steel]

Going to be some lucky kids in Nigeria 

Naw, we'll get the WTLs, but the King's Crown may be another story...

Knowing Me I'd be the first one to be complaining at the price. 

Then what the hell are you suggesting it for, b?

No more packages!

At this rate WTLebrons never dropping in the US

Going to be some lucky kids in Nigeria

LeBron showing Memphis love because he is rocking the Tennessee ( 10 I see)

What hammer is there to lay down? The insert he has to wear doesn't mesh well with the drop in. Him wearing shoes he feels comfortable in that are still NIKE products > him wearing the XI uncomfortably that could cost him mentally, physically, etc.

I understand that but two thoughts...kinda like Steve Jobs with an iphone 1 pushing the 5s at retail.....or better yet Doug Mcmillon shopping in BJ's....it's not a ringing endorsement for his product...especially one of the most expensive retail releases EVER at $275...

Second thought...I guess I come from the "The Be like Mike Generation" and will never understand...

Maybe that's the reason retro's will never die

I guess i was think more of a pack where each shoe is dropped as on its own on the same date. but they are refered to as a pack.

a la the ASG, Easter, and Xmas

...You sure you applied a due amount of thought into this analogy before you typed it out?

Most people don't seem to know how to differentiate between packs and packages so I tend to assume they always mean packages. I could get behind multiple separate releases to celebrate the third ring.

Horrible analogy. He's still playing in LeBrons...

If he was playing in Jordans or WoWs or something else you might have made some sense.

The correct comparison would be Steve Jobs using an older model iPhone instead of the current model. In the end, its still an iPhone.

 

[tyonenine]

I expect soldiers in the second half

 

[Gordonson]

The most accurate one would actually be Steve Jobs using a 5C instead of a 5S. Good efforts from everyone though

For some reason we were using him as a comparison for LeBron, so I just kept working with that

Realistically LeBron just would be one of the higher up apple employees somewhere.

Exactly, I think Nike was holding those are the possible 3Peat feat...

But Nike knows LeBron can't really wear the crown IF Tim Duncan is wearing it at the end of the season...

I very much stand corrected and edited my post...thank you sir

 

[barbarianbob]

I'm expecting Norris to come out in soldiers for the second half then it'll be over

touche

, but that's why they have the 2nd recycled name called crown jewels if he loses he should be able to pick those up after the series

 well he could get finals MVP and still lose like Jerry West in 1969

I hope you're right, cause I definitely want a pair...

I just hope the Heat get their crown "jewels" back from the Spurs in the 2nd half

Here we go!!!
