Now the NBA is concerned about officiating??

Brandon King

January 2023, Boston Garden, picture it. All-world forward LeBron James drives to the basket for a potential game-winning basket , only to get whacked on the arm by Jason Tatum causing the shot attempt to careen harmlessly off the bottom of the rim. The NBA refs continued their precedent of making calls they shouldn’t or not making the ones they should and in the face of overwhelming visual evidence decided there was nothing to see and pocketed the whistles. We then saw an incredulous nearly 40-year old living legend of…

A leather upper will be featured on “DMP” Air Jordan XI

Brandon King

The return of the “DMP” Air Jordan XI was more than a consolation prize after the news that retail runs “Columbia” and the “Gamma” XI would not materialize in 2023. There will be a major cosmetic change to the 2023 iteration that makes me question if it can be called the “DMP” XI. As the original version feature a white ballistic mesh upper, there is serious speculation that the upcoming edition will eschew that material, opting for a leather upper, ( picture the upper on the “Columbia”).
