    Nike lunar hypergamer low. Came out spring of 2012. good luck finding them at stores except on ebay...considered outdated now.

    A good shoe for pg's and slashers. Aside from Harden and Lin, other NBA players that wear them are Deron Williams, Rondo (during preseason...not sure about the regular season), Steve Blake and Iguodola. Tony Parker wear's the highs.

    Lin used to wear the 2011 hyperdunk lows (had his own PE colorway), which are great but only have zoom air in the forefoot....very similar to the Kobe 7's. The lunar hypergamer lows have full length Lunarlon.

    Not a flashy shoe which is why most people don't know about them....mostly worn as a team shoe. One of few basketball shoes from Nike that utilizes Lunarlon...a cushy, light foam in the midsole mostly utilized in their running shoes. Your only other basketball options with lunarlon are the 2012 hyperdunks, which are comfy and worn by everyone but overpriced ($140) and doesn't have full length lunarlon (good for pg's up to sg's...even tyson chandler wears them). Then there are the Jordan Fly Wade 2 EV's...great shoes with full length lunarlon but lacks breathability (this is now Wade's old shoe since he singed with Li-Ning). Lunarlon provides more of a pillow-type cushioning than zoom air. Zoom air provides some but minimal cushioning and expands back to shape after compression but it's low to the ground and good for smaller players. Max air (nike's pattented air bubble) provides great cushioning but it's heavy and it's usually found on a big-man's shoe.

    What I'm curious of is how often the get to replace the shoes? I heard that Tennis players get a new rackets every game (not sure if 100% true).

    If I was a NBA player I'd request a new pair of shoes every game just because I can :)
