When Sh*t Happens to Signature Sneakers

4) Carmelo Anthony un-All Star Melo 5.5
Jordan Brand had made a strong signing with a young Carmelo Anthony who came into the league fresh off a freshman year NCAA Championship with Syracuse. Unfortunately for Carmelo and Nike, the new star was drafted by the Nuggets in the Western Conference stacked with talent. Jordan worked up an All Star colorway for Carmelo to wear in the 2006 NBA All Star Game, but unfortunately, Melo didn’t make the cut.

    first

  • sneak’r'sole

    rondo: just made the right move.

    billups: trade was way too sudden that they dont have the time to make PE for creator. (just wait, it’ll come out)

    iverson: whats wrong with wearing classics? at least, it matched the uniform. not like c-bills

    tmac: 3.5 was a joke.. thats why they stopped makin it.. jordan started it. although, some .5′s look good, others doesnt even make up for it..

    cb: 34 2? looks like air more uptempo..

    arenas: man, no comment..

      I thought the same thing about the CB's

  • sneak’r'sole

    and oh! baron davis should’ve stayed with reebok..

    I can’t wait for the Iverson/Billups shoe sale.

  • da_coolkid304

    i would never put a pair of Reebok’s on my feet. They r really ugly and just sad to look at, same goes for those ugly ass Adidas
    that billups be wearing. if it ain’t got no check on the shoe or a jumpman sign i don’t want em.

  • solesaved

    Even if Gil1 Zero had played all 82 or just 1 game in whatever colorway they still could keep those.

  • Jon Blaze

    those omni reeboks are UGLY

  • lilrip133

    personally i think brandon roy’s blue chips springing a leak during the game and again at the following practice should get on the list somewhere.

  • only1jeep

    I find it kind of redundant that when someone is on the top of the comment list, and there’s clearly a number “1″ there, that we can easily deduce that the person is first. You don’t have to say you’re first when we can all see that you’re first. I just don’t like my intelligence insulted is all.

  • Resident Hater

    clearly B Diddy was after that cash….same with J-Kidd…at the end of the day..these players dont care about performance and aesthetics….their just tryna get that paper

    Rondo shouldve stayed….his P.E are on point….He was wearing the ugliest Nikes I’ve ever seen…must be blinded by the Swoosh like post 4..lol

  • soulie17

    man those melo’s are nice i had me a pair of those when they came out and the cb34 2′s look like i could pick some up at walmart or something

  • Rasmus

    Nice finds and quite funny to read. :D Didn’t know about that 82 shoe thing Gilbert had planned – what on Earth was he thinking?

    Oh, and please stop those “f1rst!” comments. Disgusting.
    Matt, how about adding a registration system where you should have to login before being able to comment – and thus also be able to ban the people who write junk? :)

    Peace

  • calikid

    Gilbert Arenas…TMac… its like a battle for the top of americas most injured! lol those guys should be required to play a certain number of games before they get signature kicks!

  • KOBE 24

    Your years are TOTALLY off–those are Hakeem’s Spauldings and Charles didn’t become a Rocket until the 1996-1997 season.

    Bark’s shoes were the Super CBs for that season and then he moved on to the Air CB4s for the ’97-98 season.

  • abcyou6c

  • Max

    I’ve also read about Carmelo busting up multiple pairs of sneaks during the same game.

    Smh @ ignorant @$$ post #4…

    And smh x2 @ Arenas’ crazy @$$ for wanting 82 different cw’s of a sneaker.

    Oh, and guess what?
    Twenty-FIRST! Ha!

  • damnneardead$tock

    haha… great write up.

    that gilbert arenas story is just ridiculous. no way adidas is gonna mass manufacture sneakers like that.

    it would only work for one player, and he hasn’t played since 03.

  • MJSF

    Gil needs to worry about playing more than 70+ games.

  • http://sneakersandshoes.wordpress.com PhilWil

    WOW

  • john

    those Adidas T-Mac 3.5 are sick

  • bryan

    is he hurt again??

  • skye

    damn, those t-macs are nice! I bet if adidas re-released those they’d sell.

  • imshining

    WOWWWW Arenas would’ve fVKed up big time

  • e nasty

    it ain’t no big deal. just play the freakin game!

  • Terelle
