    lol people saying those are bad for ankles.

    I've been doing something far more stupid. Since I have a lor more mobility I started playing basketball with my Nike Frees . Its scary as hell to play with but I'm so much faster and play way better. I wear some small ankle tape occasionally.

    I might buy these shoes...maybe they'll give me the euro step?

    I wear ankle braces in Nike hyper dunks because I rolled my ankles wearing Derrick rose's Adidas shoes. Then I rolled them in other high tops when not wearing a brace.

    Now when I play, I can't turn my ankles at all

    whatever about the sprained ankles. back in my day, in my country, we slammed basketball barefoot on hot surface made of rocks and bullet casings.

    smh at this generation.

    Supposedly, Nike will be giving Harden his own signature line. His sneaker will be called "The Beard" 1.

    So Update about this shoe and some background.

    I love having ankle freedom so I have been playing in Nike Frees with some tape over the last yr and have been loving it. Sprained my ankle once really bad but that was before I started wearing the ankle tape.

    Just got these shoes and played a game today.

    Sprained my ankle really bad (didn't wear the ankle tape). They were good, a little more rigid than I would like, but then agian I have been playing in frees for the last year so it will get time to get used to.

    I think some more practice + the ankle tape I normally wear and I should be good.

    I agree with you but I think its a personal preference. I am about 5'10 and rely almost completely on my speed, ball handling to get by people and make shots. Ankle freedom is really big for me. Some others are fast regardless and prefer the support.

    The all red and purple/teal look the best, but nothing special.
