Which pair of XIIIs is better to ball in?

[jlking]

I wanna try balling in a pair of my XIIIs but I don't know which one I want to ball in. First I have my white/red lows, I wanna try these out after seeing mike bibby hoop in them. I'll most-likely wear an ankle brace on my right foot with these. Do they have the same tech as the mids (heel and fore-foot zoom)? Second choice are my cdp XIIIs. I've hooped in my concord six rings a few times before and they have the sole of the XIIIs apparently. The six rings had great traction and comfy zoom but they were stiff, is this true for XIIIs as well

? Are they stiff, I mean?

OGs certainly aren't. Can't speak for anything afterwards.

13s arent stiff.

Same cushioning - low or mid. You shouldnt need ankle braces in the lows either - the ankle support is as good as the mids.

I disagree, the RETRO 13's ARE stiff, all the technology in the midsole from the originals is not present in the retro which is why it feels this way. The OG's are comfortable and still affordable, i would go with an og pair.
