What are the best basketball shoes out there?

well, there are some factors that you must take into consideration.. first, what position do you play?


second, what's your budget?


third, where are you playing? indoors or outdoors?





I'm not a super expert, but i know enough to realize what shoes i think best suit me..





admittedly, i am a Nike guy.. (they should pay me for this plug)





but that doesn't mean that you have to specifically buy Nike's..





see, for example, I'm a guard/forward type.. i do a lot of sprints, stutter steps, cross-overs, laterals, slides and jumping.. as it is arguably the most arduous position of the five, performance and comfort are equally important to me.. i don't want to twist any ankles, but i also don't like that feeling of burns under the arches of my feet..





i have to say that there's three pairs that i would give my ok on.. the first two are from Nike; the Zoom Kobe 1s and the LeBron 4s..





The difference?





Kobe's kicks are lighter, but you get a better feel for the floor.. the performance is outstanding, as you get to move freely without feeling a lot of strain on your feet.. and, the pair is probably the most comfortable i've worn since the Hurrache 2k5s..





Meanwhile, the Lebron 4s give you a powerful feel, as compared to the finesse feel of the ZK1s.. although much heavier, the foamposite material around the shoe becomes almost a type of protection that lets you power through the defense..





finally, the third shoe.. the Gilbert Arenas signature Adidas sneakers..





they're low-tops, the way Agent Zero likes them.. but the biggest factor is the extra-thick sides, which would be perfect if you run on the sides of your feet.. you may not run that way, which is why i suggested three shoes for you..
