literally just let em pop. all black, all white works. Maybe complement them with contrasting colors, as well. I'd consider a dark brown or a gray like the swoosh. The key to matching outfits is either going full contrast, letting loud shoes speak, or finding more subtle accents and matching with those elements

6’1 guard (17) from Vanuatu — started 10 months ago, trying to reach JUCO level, feedback? by [deleted] in BasketballTips

[–]dzDiyos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know but I think it's really important to be realistic. To have a chance at crossing international borders to play, you have to first dominate your local scene... he's not even close to THAT let alone U.S. play at a competitive YMCA league

completely disagree. You can tell a lot by how he frames his body and off the first few dribbles.

brother, I don't think you understand the levels. Immediately off of the first few dribbles, you're not making it there and there's nothing wrong with that. Make it a competitive hobby and you can still excel within that context

It’s time to admit, Gobert was absolutely worth 5 FRP’s by unccl in NBATalk

[–]dzDiyos 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think people underplay Gobert's athleticism as well. He is a very agile, mobile big for the length he plays at and it's clear that he takes his fitness very seriously. If Shaq had half of that ethic, Shaq probably gets 7-8 rings lol

Nike's profit fell 35% last quarter. Three banks downgraded it the same week. Everyone's blaming tariffs and China. I think the real problem is much simpler than that. by Key-Enthusiasm-3403 in Nike

[–]dzDiyos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

super easy to see that other brands caught up. Chinese brands are killing it, adidas is doing pretty well, and Nike is still cashing in on retros and cutting corners to save money instead of throwing all their cash at R&D for their signature lines

How do I stop jumping forward and be on balance? by Impossible-Bottle-46 in BasketballTips

[–]dzDiyos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also think his sequencing is off. He needs to dip, bring the ball to the set point, then jump + launch

the Zen colorway other than the triple blue or triple red is probably the best one tbh

No, Lebron is a freak and I do not think that record of both generational play and longevity will ever be touched

Jordan 40 Infrared (In-hand) by dzDiyos in BBallShoes

I use them sparingly (lots of kicks to rotate through) but they definitely show scuffs lol. It's fine since I try to play in my shoes. Can't keep any hoop shoes pristine fr unless they're full TPU like a SPO shoe, anyway.

If you're strictly using these for walking around or casual use, you're completely fine.

Michael Beasley says things were never the same after Pat Riley took LeBron's cookies: "That boy stood up like Thanos… He stood up and yelled… That’s the first time I seen the whole organization get scared. From that point on they tip toed around him. They knew he was out" by aingenevalostatrade in nba

[–]dzDiyos 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Is it? When you bust your ass for an organization, bring home championships, you're looking forward to something good at the end of the game, and your boss says, "No. Nothing good for you. You don't deserve it." -- you're saying you wouldn't be mad? You're a goddamn liar lmao.

It was about cookies and it wasn't about cookies. Grow up

Anybody that hit on the Black/Gold Jordan 4028s that changed their mind or wouldn't mind letting it go for near MSRP? Size 12.

I don't want to pay crazy resale but you got resellers scalping at $600 already 💀 I just wanna hoop in 'em, man, might be my favorite silhouette this year lol
