Are these happening??!! Zoom BB 1.5 .

I found that the cushioning in the 2k4 goes from being very responsive when new to being quite firm after some time wherein it lacks any real feel under the forefoot.


  
 
lacked in traction...but weight, comfort, and responsiveness were on point imo.

if theyre indeed droppin...

The 2k4 is a fantastic ball shoe and the Zoom BB blows it out of the water in almost every category.  The only area where it is comparable is heel to toe transition.

The traction on this shoe is unmatched anywhere.
 
EDIT: I searched the Reviews Forum for a review and the one that came up was the one I wrote like 4 years ago.

Forgot that I even wrote this. Used to write a lot of those back when I was in school and had a lot of time on my hands.

But for anyone who needs a review I think it's still a pretty accurate representation of what you can expect from the shoe except for the cut of the shoe, in which case the mids were the same just with better ankle support.

My fault,

I was like huh...

I just can't get over that dull/simple pathetic design on the BB 1s. The 2s were dope, appealing wise, but b/c of that wrap around patent.

2K4s are still being worn till this day and still being retro'd and on NikeiD... Its a shoe the majority of bballers like. But everyone has it's opinion and preferences.

And I hope they land on Nike ID. I will happily cook up a homage to Brandon Roy's '07 X-Mas PE.

Considering Nike seem resistant to even heel and forefoot at the original BB price point (110?)...i really doubt it unfortunately.

I have a feeling these won't have full length zoom, but the product description might say they do. But if they do, hope they are nike ID, will cop the grey toes and make some tony parker IDs.

2k4's don't even come close to bb1's in terms of on court performance. i've played in both, and sold my 2k4's because my bb1's were way better, and i am not a fan of the forefoot metatarsal zoom dot.

2k4s are lighter (seemed more flismy to me)

I think alot of people prefer the 2k4 because they were hyped up, Kobe wore them, and dropped when this hobby was at the pinnacle of being mainstream.
For those of you that don't know about the bb1 or haven't played in them, please read this discussion...http://niketalk.yuku.com/...-Subpar-Releases-Zoom-BB

if they release these to the states, they better have a more substantial midsole than the 1s and 2s. i thought it was great to just have a full-length zoom air bag as the only thing in the midsole but i learned the hard way that it will bottom out. i'm all for court feel and being low to the ground but bruised heels aren't fun at all.

^ they shouldn't change the cushioning setup from the oringinal one bit. keep it exactly as it was.

it was phenomenal.
