    These were my favorite shoe to play in, bar none. Gave me a good 3 years of hooping.

    I still have hope. Harden has a bigger reputation as a fashion leader than Lillard or Rose, and he'll have input on the way the shoe looks. The 2015 Crazy Light Boosts look pretty awesome, so it can be done.

    Perhaps you're right about having hope, though I think you're wrong about Rose and understating the level of his stardom back in 2010-12. Not only was he the MVP of prime Lebron, he was arguably the biggest star in the NBA. To put in plain numbers, Adidas signed Rose for 250 million over 10 years in 2011. That's 50 million more than they've signed Harden in 2015 without adjusting for inflation.

    Its probably difficult to remember how huge a star Derrick Rose was a mere 3 years ago, with all the injuries and setbacks, but he was definitely bigger than Harden is 2015.

    Some of T-Mac's shoes during his Orlando Days and his first few pair in his Rockets days were really good. I remember wanting them so badly!

    Loved these shoes. Soft, but the grip on the bottom wore out easily. One of those shoes where you had to keep wiping the bottom to get a good grip.

    When Derrick rose won that MVP he looked like he was about to make lebron just a memory

    Honestly rose use to look like the next MJ or Kobe, he use to be so damn nasty

    He wasn't comparing how big of a superstar Harden is to Rose..he just stated he has more a reputation as a fashion leader. Harden is known for wearing having his own eccentric style. Rose really isn't/wasn't known for that.

    Is that Harden in the front or in the back? The one in the front is FIRE!
