NBA Media Day 2011
December 14th, 2011 by John K. | 75 comments

The day that was in danger of never happening is finally here – NBA Media Day! It’s the perfect opportunity for NBA stars to re-introduce themselves to the media and the fans, and also a first look at some familiar faces in new places. We’ll let the NBA blogs handle that drama, because we’re here to look at the kicks! Starting off, Joe Johnson of the Atlanta Hawks was rocking the Air Jordan XI ‘Concord’, while Southern Conference rivals Orlando Magic forward Quentin Richardson wore his Air Jordan XIII PE in White/Royal. The Knicks frontcourt of Melo, STAT, and Tyson Chandler got together for a nice photo, while Kobe Bryant posed with veteran Derek Fisher and new coach Mike Brown. Other interesting notes: Monta Ellis, formerly with AND1, is seen wearing the Air Jordan 8.0 (that’s a great pick-up for Jumpman if he’s a full time member), and LeBron James rocking the Home/Scarface LeBron 9. There’s a lot more to see below, so take a look and get ready to kick off a season-long series of NBA Feet features! via Yahoo!.

















Hello there, just became alert to your blog thru Google, and found that it is really informative. I am going to be careful for brussels. I will be grateful if you happen to continue this in future. Lots of people will likely be benefited from your writing. Cheers!
IMO btwn shoes that have outsoles of urebbr and clear material..- Rubber has better traction and sticks to the ground better- On nikeid.com for the kobe v's, they state that the clear outsole is better for outdoor use, I believe due to longevity. The solid material may have better traction but may not last as long.Overall, however, I believe the difference is minimal. Both are good quality. With herringbone, traction should still be excellent for both.
heats going all the way no matter what!!!!!
I thought Monta was with AND 1, guess he didnt even know what he was gettin himself into.
Mavs will kick Kobe's ass again this Season!!
They made Pau Gasol and Bynum take pics with only each other so it will be easy to delete those pics when they ship them off
Can anyone figure out why cleveland sent a bunch of janitors and popcorn vendors to take team photos?

He'll switch to his new shoe on x-mas day vs the Bulls.

most of these kicks that are shown these players are not going to wear until allstar break or after.
Damn, I'm almost embarrassed to be a Magic fan...PLEASE, lord oh please let them keep Dwight, bring in a good young PG, and at least one reliable wingman. Maybe too much to ask for but I'm wishfully thinking this holiday.
