    Puma basketball shoes have sizing issues and are underperforming the market. Same with NB with possible exception being the Kawahi 3. Otherwise I don’t like new balance in the basketball space especially with no 12.5;size being manufactured in most of their models. Not a fan of either company in the basketball space.

    Great video. I assumed all li ning were better than all American shoes minus Adidas. I haven't been able to enjoy or rely on Adidas since ultra boost. The foam is too soft. I have the harden volume 5 McDonald's. Very similar to AE1. Heavy, stuff, and big heel slippage. I would like a comparison of new balance vs li ning and Nike or your opinion. I play more center, PF, F
