It's long been rumored that basketball abilities are linked to what kind of shoes players wear.
From my experiences, though, that is incorrect: I was 5'9" and couldn't jump before I put on the old school Allen Iverson-inspired Reebok "Answers", and I was also 5'9" and couldn't jump after I put on the old school Allen Iverson-inspired Reebok "Answers".
These days I stick to soccer.
Anyway, you get the point: People love basketball shoes and we all know some people are willing to pay a hefty pricetag to get their hands on the brand new Nike Whatevers.
It's all well and good to spend a hundred or two hundred bucks on your favorite shoe...but $60,000?!
That's seems to be a bit much.
