Does it really matter for them? Did you see how many times that whole crew got passed in transition?

If we went to white shoes, would BillyMac change his title to Billy "white shoes" Mac? Inquiring minds want to know?

I think these are them. Some players had them in my games this afternoon, and they seemed to match what I've been seeing on TV. Nike Shox Slam is the name of them. Look right to y'all?

With my bum knee and now back problems, I may want to get a pair as silly as they look.

It appeared the goal was to see who could have the biggest white logo last year.

It now appears things have went to who can have the greatest amount of while on their shoe.
