In the first Sneaker Watch of the regular season Nate Robinson seemed to steal the show with a pair of Air Jordan 3 Silver Anniversary editions. Most would have never thought that Mr. Krypto-Nate would one-up himself in the second day of the regular season, however that’s exactly what Nate did. While we’re on the lookout for new releases like the Nike Air Max LeBron VIII and adidas TS Heat Check, Robinson pulled out a pair of Air Jordan 11 Space Jams as the Celtics headed to Cleveland for their second game of the season. Unfortunately for Boston, they were beaten by the Cavaliers, who at least for the time being, have a better winning percentage than LeBron and the Heat.
A couple of other highlights in the footwear included rookie Evan Turner bringing out his Li-Ning sneakers and the Clippers Blake Griffin starting out the season in the Nike Zoom Hyperfuse. Check out the shots below from around the league in the latest edition of Sneaker Watch.

The Anta’s looking very good on KG’s feet, a lot more relaxed than on earlier pics.
And Amare should really get a Knicks cw of the KD2’s.
Why in the world does Blake Griffin not have his own signature shoe??? C’mon Nike….give it to him!!!
I’m loving Wade’s 2010 PEs.

Nates Space Jams look sick! And I’m liking Amare still sporting the KD2s
Love the XI space….. who’s gonna wear the cool grey???
@ LOVEtheXIV: I’m not colorblind, but you are if you think that’s a match, the Orange is different on the shoe, and the Yellow on the KD2’s doesn’t go at all.
Nate Robinson is a beast!
