毒品/NIKE KD VI ELITE GOLD

KD6_ELITEGOLD

Straight up when I first saw these shoes I hated them visciously. Then they dropped the Lebron 11’s and it just looked like a farce in comparison. With this drop and the floral patterned KD VI’s the shoe has grown on me. These Elite Gold’s though. WHOOOOO! I think its the materials and the color scheme. The fly wire additions and the translucent white knit material work like a charm. The color scheme is just clean. All the right gold accents throughout. Damn can my Visa take the weight?

討論/CRACKER BARREL : LEBRON 11’S, PHOENIX SUNS COLORWAY

去你的!! Marcus Morris穿上了Lebron 11’s,而Phoenix Suns 隊伍的PJ Tucker以120比106 戰勝Traiblazers。橙色配金色鑲邊及白色旋風,弊病……

DAAAMN. Lebron 11’s on Marcus Morris and PJ Tucker of the Phoenix Suns in a win over the Trailblazers, 120-106, Nov. 27, 2013. Orange with gold trim, white swoosh. The sickness.

毒品/NIKE KIGER

NIKE_KIGER

Trail runners. Nike been dominating this segment of the market since the ACG days. The logical extension here, Nike Kiger’s. Before the Lebron’s 11 dropped I was about to spring the duckets on this pair, but I withheld by biting my forearm. I mess with these heavy though. They come in a couple of color ways for both men and women. This scheme shown is the creme de la creme. Nike! Over here…show me some love!

滿分聯賽/DYCKMAN. 8 THINGS I LEARNED ABOUT NYC STREETBALL

STREETBALL_1000PX

WRITER – Rick Kang

Full disclosure: even though I lived in New York backintheday (‘98/’99) and even played ball in the streets of New York, up until this July I’d never actually watched a basketball game in New York. The Knicks? First off, I hate ’em. I hated them in the Patrick Ewing/John Starks era, rooted (briefly) for them as an underdog in the short-lived Sprewell era and they’ve been pretty much irrelevant ever since.*

* Yeah, yeah, Carmelo. As for Brooklyn – the Nyets? Seriously? Maybe this year; maybe…

(English continued after Chinese)

提起紐約,或者當年的hip hop風光不再,但紐約街頭籃球的王者霸氣至今依然未減。

利申:雖然我在紐約住過一會兒(1998-1999),又打過一陣街頭籃球,但是我其實沒有真正看過一場籃球賽。你想應該有看過the Knicks吧? 不要開玩笑,我討厭這支球隊,除了因為它的影響力小之外*,我也討厭Patrick Ewing/John Starks擔正的年代,我只算是勉強支持過苟延殘喘的Sprewell年代,就這麼多而已。

*我知道,我知道有Carmelo。所以你說要去看布魯克林the Nyets?你還在開玩笑嗎?好吧,或許今年去,又或者…不會。

總之,雖然我住的紐約有Rucker和其他數不盡的街頭籃球聯賽(例如:布魯克林的Soul in the Hole, 西四街的The Cage, 因伍德的Dyckman),但是我從來沒有見識過為人津津樂道的熱血街場比賽。於是在上個週末,我決定是時候要去長見識了。

我本來打算去哈林的Rucker Park, 可惜來得不是時候,沒有碰上比賽--誰都想免掉查找聯賽比賽場次的功夫啊。不過也沒關係,我轉去有著街籃傳奇Bobbito Garcia的Dyckman街籃聯賽,剛好碰上了星期五晚上演的兩場高中比賽,分別是:L-Pac 對 Mookie’s All Stars, 以及Team Dyckman對10th Avenue。

來到哈林,如果你和我一樣是個「sneaker痴」,就別忘了去Footlocker House of Hoops的分店朝聖,搶一雙剛推出的人氣鞋作Rondo Christmas PE Hyperposites,來個完整的紐約籃球體驗。[https://www.facebook.com/pages/HOUSE-OF-HOOPS-HARLEM-NEW-YORK/296798495932]
