Glad we have a thread in this forum. I don't post much if at all in the others. I am hoping and am confident we get a shot or 2 with a shoe or colorway we havent seen mj wear before.
Really? I still think those are underrated overall. Those actually imo look better than the black toes. Even though the black toes have a higher nostalgia meaning to me.Chicagos have exploded in price since Sunday lol
The 97-98 year was my junior year in high school.
I was 17 when they won their last ring. One of the greatest times to be a sports fan imo.Dang, I thought you were older than me.
And those mid XIII's up there are incredible. Always wanted them.
the younger generation will finally see the real GOAT in action: the Last Shot XIVs
beastly traction
super bouncy articulated zoom
asymmetric collar that had the low cut feel in a mid cut shoe
Between 1 through 14 whats a better balling shoe than the 14? Just out of those models ?There's nothing GOAT about the 14s lol. They were comfortable and good basketball kicks but there are better all around basketball shoes in the Jordan signature line

Thats fair.in my personal opinion, I'd say the 13s. This is assuming we're talking OGs and not retro trash quality. I prefer high top ball shoes and they have the zoom just like the 14. Playoff 13s are one of the best looking model+colorway combo he ever wore
They should have had a chance to defend until they were beat.It's too bad the bulls broke up for 98-99. With the strike shortened season, it would have been perfect for their aging roster. While Krause was a full blown heel, Reinsdorf needs equal blame. He was the boss and everything ultimately went through him. I wonder if he had reasons to want to break it up. If I'm an owner and I have the GOAT on my team, best believe I'm getting as long of a run as I can. From a business standpoint, even if they didnt win for a few years after 98 they would still be printing money.
I think ALL played a roll in the demise of that team.Jerry Reinsdorf and Phil deserve the blame for the demise of the Bulls;
- Krause told Scottie not to sign that contract that Reinsdorf offered him.
-A good owner steps in and solves problems between the GM and the coach.
-Phil was flirting with the Magic which won’t be mentioned in the documentary. Because he knew the Bulls time was running out for multiple reasons and he wanted more power and money.
-Reinsdorf was too hands off and he should have offered Pippen bonus money or restructured his contract.
I think it’s kind of bad to paint this picture of a dead man being the villain. I get it Krause was a jerk but Phil Jackson and Reinsdorf have many flaws too. Phil did this in LA where anytime there’s a problem he gets the players on his side and points the finger at management whether it’s legit or not. Phil was always jealous of Jerry West and Jerry Krause. I guess we can say after Phils stint with the Knicks there’s a reason Chicago and Los Angeles never gave him that power. By the way Tex Winter deserves more credit then Phil, Reinsdorf or Krause.
Did you play in the original XIV?in my personal opinion, I'd say the 13s. This is assuming we're talking OGs and not retro trash quality. I prefer high top ball shoes and they have the zoom just like the 14. Playoff 13s are one of the best looking model+colorway combo he ever wore
