That was odd seeing him in black shoes. The team wore black shoes a lot last year, but Hakeem never wanted to wear them so the Rockets went back to white when he came off an injury. I thought it was cool seeing him in black shoes. If the Rockets make the playoffs (wishful thinking probably) I hope they were black shoes like the bulls and others. OUT JBII ------------------
Considering on the night they broke out the black shoes the team as a whole had a crappy shooting performance, I would think that they burned them all after the game. I think the red chuck taylors would be much better ------------------ In the end there will be no judges...only witnesses to my greatness.
Those were sweet dog...but I only remember Bird in the low tops....flat suede looking things...oh...you didn't say "chucks". ------------------ In the end there will be no judges...only witnesses to my greatness.
I remember those shoes well,Drewdog.They were perfect on him in that uniform.... marketed well too....We need to change the jammie,thats for sure and they probably would go black on the shoes.....sign of the times,we've come a long way from Chuck Taylors. ------------------ [This message has been edited by hardwood (edited January 25, 2001).]
Anyone old like me remember seeing Magic Johnson's Gold an Purple Converse high tops?? Larry Bird had some Green and white ones as well.
