The Jordan Line

Postby mvpshaq32 on Sun Sep 24, 2006 11:58 am

Can someone tell me the distinctiveness of each Jordan's from 1-21
And which is the most comfortable and which do you prefer?

i can tell you one thing -- anything past 15, with the exclusion of 16, is pure utter garbage. it gets uglier year in and year out. stick with the retros.

Haha, personal preference I guess.. it'd go pretty perfect with the Chicago Bulls jerseys imo.

Lol, BZ, you should be very ashamed of youself :lame:

Anyways, it goes without saying, the later the number, the more comfortable they get (with some exceptions, like with the XIV's ((y)) and the XV's ((n))). The I's are brutal for anything but casual wear, while the XXI's are the cream of the crop of today's shoes... My favourite are probably the III's or VI's though.

:lol: Those aren't my favorite Jordan's, I just think they look nice, since my high school's theme was dominantly red, black, and white, I thought they would've went well with the school jerseys. :wink:

My favorite Jordan's are the Jordan 17's though. (Y)

Those ugly fake ass Jordans. :lol: I got to agree with j.23, mostly all the Jordans after 14 weren't that good. The 16's, some of the 17's, black and blue 18's and the all black 20's were the only ones I really liked.

Huge, huge bump. My question didn't deserve a brand spanking new thread and this was as close of a thread relating to Jordan shoes that related to my question so I asked it in here.

Anyways, my question is, for the new Jordan XX3 ad, who is that at around 0:37 and 0:38? I think it's Tyrus Thomas, but I've been told by some that its Richard Hamilton. It's not as easy to tell who it is by the moving part that starts at around the end of 0:38, but looking at the shot at around 0:37, it sure looks a lot more like Thomas than Hamilton. Another thing is that the still at 0:37, the player is wearing a white jersey with red brim, making it likely a Chicago home jersey, though those who say it's Hamilton argue that it's a picture of Richard Hamilton back from high school.

Here's the vid for better understanding:

It's Rip. his eyes are a little different from Tyrus's. plus if u notice the jersey number is 32.

It's most definately Rip. Tyrus may have worn 32 in high school because that was his original number when he was drafted by Chicago. Anyway the picture does look a bit like Tyrus but I screams Richard Hamilton to me. Take away the Bulls style jersey and I probably wouldn't think "Tyrus" at all.

The thing that kills the Hamilton vs Thomas debate is the fact that Rip is one of the main athletes in the whole Jordan line campaign. He's on my desktop right now, along with Ray Allen, Joe Johnson, Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony and MJ himself - all guys shown in the video.

I just took a look back at the old Jumpman commercials and found this split Jordan XXI one. I just realized that it's not just Jordan which the clip captured but it was the real moment.

I actually think the XXI commercial would be an awesome commercial for XX3 (like it's worthy of being an XX3 commercial, as in the XX3 being the shoe that sums things up; doubt I'm making sense here), as it reflects on all the greatness of MJ.
