Kicks On Court - November 6th, 2008
Posted by George Kiel III | Nov 6, 2008 Yesterday’s Kicks On Court Edition (KOC) gave us a big hint of who Kevin Garnett and Tracy McGrady voted for during the Presidential campaign; it’s pretty obvious who Mr. Chris Paul voted for.
Last night, in a losing effort against the Atlanta Hawks, CP hooped in a New Orleans Hornets-inspired colorway of the Air Jordan 6 Rings with the word ‘OBAMA‘ written in permanent marker on the side panels. If you recall, our KOC spotted him hooping in this sneaker a couple of nights ago as well. To keep the New Orleans opinion alive, Chris Paul’s teammate David West, played in the Nike Air Power Max with the same script on the side panels (shown after the jump). On another note, Carmelo Anthony brought the Air Jordan Melo M5 for the first time this year. If you are feeling this sneaker, it will release publicly on November 22nd, 2008. Click the jump to see more kicks worn by Kobe Bryant, Ray Allen, Joe Johnson, Gerald Wallace, Richard Hamilton, Kevin Garnett and others. |

Why does Converse insist on putting D-Wade in some disgusting sneakers.
He’s a good player .. put him in some good sneakers.
Everything else is okay.
CP3’s 6IX Rings are CRAZYY!
Elton Brands footwear aint lookin’ too good either.
Still haven’t fallen in love w| the 2.5’s, Jumpman Pros, or the TS Commanders … oh well.

Those MELO M5′S are sick. those should be the first released colorway.
Nov 6, 2008 at 12:26 pm
I like the fact that D-Wade is wearing Ol’School Wades.
Nov 6, 2008 at 12:25 pm
Those OBAMA Six Rings are off the chain…the colrway is already sexy, but with support to the big homey Barack….u cant go wrong…good look

Sugar Ray always got the fresh kicks. Big up on the OBAMA joints.
Nov 6, 2008 at 12:14 pm
Lebron’s new kicks are his best by far! Not the colorway in the picture but the shoe in general. I got em the first day they came out and they have the most cushion and support of any shoe out there right now
Nov 6, 2008 at 12:10 pm
Nice…. After I keep seeing the Jordan 2.5s they are starting to grow on me… I like the RA’s PEs
