words // Nick DePaula:
In today’s first matchup on the NBA Playoff schedule, the Cleveland Cavaliers played host to the Detroit Pistons in a series that might be far closer than its 1st versus 8th seeding might entail.
One of the key battles can be found at the point guard position, as dynamic floor generals Kyrie Irving and Reggie Jackson face off. As expected, Irving broke out a new colorway of his Kyrie 2 signature sneaker. Of particular interest is the fact that Reggie Jackson was also wearing the Kyrie 2, in the “inferno” launch colorway.
That raises the question — would you wear your opponent’s signature shoe against them, in the playoffs no less? We lobbed that very question out on Twitter, and instantly got a flurry of answers right back.
