Is he trying to salvage his immage? If he is, this $15 shoe is a great start. Im sure Nike and the other high end shoes are watching this. He says these are the shoes he will wear when he plays. Wondering how this is viewed in NY. I dont see how it can be anything but a big positive. From what I have been able to understand the drawback is the limited distribution.

You never know... weren't the Karl Malones also cheap? I think it's more whoever you can get a deal with... I bet Nike, Adidas, Reebok, etc don't give a **** anymore, because his image is somewhat tarnished now. Not in the sense of being a criminal but being a selfish player who doesn't have the skills to win without talent around him.
As a T-Wolves fan, I saw how he was the first 2 years of his career before he turned into "Star-bury". If he would be willing to go back to those days when he was viewed as a legit #2 or #3 scoring option, and think "pass first", he'd could be great and really help a team win again. The way he used to slash, penetrate, and make crazy passes into tight spots was a talent most people forget he had. If he could only change his mindset...
