WADE wears the new JORDAN BRAND Fly WADE.......LeBRON 8 PS NIKE..... NOWITZKI NIKE HYPERDUNKS....Candace PARKER ADIDAS TS ACE COMMANDER...SHOE GAME

Am I the only one who is always interested in WHAT the PROS are WEARING.......U know the SHOE GAME as they call it. In the NBA is a BIG DEAL around NBA All-STAR Weekend to see which player has the Hottest SHOE. The Actual Shoe Releases to the general public are always chaotic and filled with frenzy.

But it looks now like the NBA is SAYING that the SHOE a particular Guy is wearing on the TEAM has to be inform with everyone else. Case in POINT.....the HEAT were all wearing predominantly RED SHOES or all BLACK with RED.....that's UNIFORM. The MAVS always seem to wear WHITE either HOME or ROAD.

I remember the BULLS when MIKE and SCOTTIE were doing their thing they would wear the BLACK SHOES with the BLACK NBA SOCKS........the BLUEDUDE always gives PROPS to the Originators to an IDEAS that appears etched in NBA PLAYOFF WEAR.

Just like the "FAB FIVE" of MICHIGAN WOLVERINES FAME........WHO IN THE HELL WERE THOSE DUDES WITH THE LONG-BAGGY SHORTS, CHARLES BARKELY AIR-MAX with the BUBBLE in the BACK, AND THE BLACK SOCKS........AND THEIR COLORS ARE MAIZE AND BLUE........like I said the ORIGINATORS.

DEFINITION of....."the SHOE GAME".........from the shoegame.com and HYPEBEAST.....a person that like a shoe item because of it's HYPE (positive attention).......or one that attempts to over exaggerate a shoe/item.

Let the BLUEDUDE enlighten you on the 2011 SHOE GAME......as well as the HYPE of surrounding certain MODELS or BRANDS:

The ORIGINAL...CONVERSE ALL-STAR CHUCK TAYLOR...without these joints........NOTHING...since 1908.......yeah add that up

Michael JORDAN aka Air JORDAN aka JORDAN aka HIS AIRNESS Chicago BULLS: The ORIGINATOR of the SHOE GAME.......he is the Wright BROTHERS Flying, The MODEL T FORD etc. so many try to emulate and can't even duplicate......he owns the SHOE Game and he is an ENTITY within NIKE...that's right the SWOOSH...and talking about MIKE and BRAND JORDAN can be a BLOG on to itself literally........that #23 you see on Kids and Adults everywhere in the WORLD.......JORDAN.........it's a BRAND like COKE, PEPSI, CHEVY, CADILLAC, SONY, APPLE.etc........absolutely out of CONTROL........HOW CAN YOU RECREATE A SHOE in a different COLOR and PEOPLE go get it like they have never seen it..........AIR JORDANS.....ENOUGH SAID......CURTAINS PLEASE.

Kobe BRYANT aka the BLACK MAMBA LA LAKERS: Originally with Adidas and the CRAZY 8's and then most people thought JORDAN would have a shot at him but way too BIG for MIKE so NIKE picked up the CHECK......now wearing the KOBE ZOOM 6 low cut......with fake MAMBA snakeskin......a very comfortable shoe........Players like Shannon BROWN, Keith BOGANS, Peja STOJAKOVIC, JJ BEREA, Paul George PACERS, Dhantay JONES.....and even the BLUEDUDE has the Hollywood 3D, SUNSET VERSION, and 2011 All-Star Version....a cool sneaker

Dwayne WADE aka WADE COUNTY Miami HEAT: When he first came into the league he was CONVERSE ( DOCTOR J...then BIRD and MAGIC....CHOOSE your WEAPON).....Now with the #1 and Hottest BRAND AIR JORDAN Wade sports his 1st Signature shoe with JORDAN called......JORDAN BRAND FLY WADE...they are HOT.....and have the Air-MAX in them...which is so CIRCA 2011 JORDAN

LeBron JAMES aka KING JAMES Miami HEAT: NIKE came at him with the RICHEST SHOE DEAL for an NBA Rookie in NBA History......Wearing his own NIKE ZOOM BRAND.......now wearing the LeBRON 8 PS Series. His SHOE has always been built for a guy that is 6'8" and over 270 LBS.......so the shoe is somewhat heavy even though with TECHNOLOGY has become LIGHTER......my favorites are the LeBron ZOOM 1......Which 1st Took Off in ARCO ARENA in November 2003 vs the KINGS

Dirk NOWITZKI aka the DIGGLER aka the GERMANATOR Dallas MAVERICKS: Been with NIKE since 1998.........his rookie Season.....Always wore Big Man NIKES......now wearing the 2010 HYPERIZE and HYPERDUNK.

Candace PARKER aka CP3 Los Angeles SPARKS: Been wearing and UNDER Contract with ADIDAS from day 1 in the WNBA...wore ADIDAS at UT KNOXVILLE as well......Now has her own line the Adidas TS ACE COMMANDER......made for PARKER for her unique Versatility with her size.

Maya MOORE aka M TWICE Minnesota LYNX: Made her professional debut in STAPLES Center in LA last FRIDAY and to NO SURPRISE wearing NIKE or should I say a NIKE BRAND......A GREY Pair of JORDAN BRAND FLY WADES......a lot of the WOMEN in the WNBA wear MENS SHOES. MOORE wore NIKES at UCONN in COLLEGE...FIRST EVER WOMEN'S PLAYER TO BE ENDORSED BY BRAND JORDAN....that's how good she really is.......WOWZA

Steve NASH aka NASTY Phoenix SUNS: Been with NIKE from DAY 1....then really blew up with NIKE in PHOENIX......the FIRST NBA PLAYER to wear real LOW CUTS in 2000....SORRY KOB it's a COPY CAT World.......he wears the NASH Nike ZOOM Low Trash TALK.....Remember NASH is A SOCCER guy by trade so LOW CUTS don't hinder his PLAY at all.

Derrick ROSE aka DROSE aka POOH Chicago BULLS: Adidas from DAY 1.....wore them also at MEMPHIS his 1 year in SCHOOL.....The 2010-11 NBA MVP wore the ultra-light ADIZERO by Adidas.....a shoe for a GUY who most deem the Fastest end to end player in the LEAGUE...now the HYPE in ADIDAS is getting BIGGER.......the SUMMER SHOE is the CRAZY LIGHT by ADIDAS...i remember KOBE BRYANT was ADIDAS when he first came into the NBA he wore the ADIDAS Crazy 8.

Dwight HOWARD aka SUPERMAN and NO SHAQ didn't retire the NAME hell CLARK KENT had it before any of you BUFFOONS.....#12 in O-TOWN wears the ADIDAS COMMANDER by Dwight HOWARD.....a shoe Built for the BIG MAN but light enough for everyone really. I think in the last 2 years ADIDAS has done excellent work in bridging the GAP with competition from a TECHNOLOGY STANDPOINT.......NICE SHOE.........WOULD u WEAR them with JEANS......HELL NO.

Lauren JACKSON aka LJ aka the AUSSIE Seattle STORM: NIKES from DAY...maybe the BEST Player in the WNBA she wears the NIKE LEBRON ZOOM SOLDIER 5 PE which means PLAYER EXCLUSIVE.........which also means ONLY PLAYERS can get that particular model........A WNBA MVP she is right up there with Candace PARKER, Diana TUARASI, and teammate Sue BIRD. Heck of a talent FROM DOWN UNDER............AUSTRALIA

Ray ALLEN aka SUGAR RAY aka JESUS SHUTTLESWORTH Boston CELTICS: Made his DEBUT with the 1st JORDAN BRAND UNIT.....along with Michael FINLEY, Derek ANDERSON, MIKE BIBBY, Joe JOHNSON, and RIP HAMILTON ......You will see RAY with all kinds of JORDANS in the unique COLORWAY of CELTIC GREEN some where on the SHOE as well as SUGAR RAY in scripted on there as well.....RAY has some of the COOLEST JORDANS Ever.

Carmelo ANTHONY aka "MELO NY KNICKS: MIKE had to settle for 'MELO as LeBron JAMES was NIKE'S from the JUMP......has his own JORDAN through JORDAN BRAND and played under the JORDAM MELO M7 when he was traded to the KNICKS at the DEADLINE......Not a real big fan of his shoe.

Amare' STOUDAMIRE aka STAT NY KNICKS: NIKE form the JUMP right out of HS to the LEAGUE......Wore his own line through NIKE called AIR MAX STAT 360 and now he wears the NIKE HUARACHE TR MID PE.......a throwback to the early '90's Shoe....a NIKE TRAINING SHOE with KNICKS COLORWAY...can't wait to see if NIKE releases these.
