DWade hinting about his “first pair of jays” on twitter

Posted: 10 Aug 2009 12:39 PM PDT

DWade tweets "his Jordans"DWade is out west in LA for a video shoot for Jordan Brand, but just a few minutes ago he tweeted about his “first pair of jays.”  Ever since the news surfaced that Dwyane signed with Jordan Brand there has been much speculation if he would become the third current member of Jordan Brand with a signature shoe line.

We have not heard any official word of Dwyane Wade having a signature shoe with JB yet, but as he promises us with his latest announcement we will all know.  Follow Dwyane Wade on twitter at @dwadeofficial to stay in the know. In your opinion should DWade get his own signature line or would you rather see Miami Heat PEs?

Posted: 10 Aug 2009 09:00 AM PDT

Nike Air Zoom BB III

During the 2008-09 NBA season, point guards such as Tony Parker, Steve Nash and Rajon Rondo all laced up the Nike Air Zoom BB II at one point (see our Kicks On Court). Now, the newly-designed Nike Air Zoom BB III is starting to show up at select retailers such as Schuh-You.

At a first glance, the Air Zoom BB III resembles the Air Zoom BB I more than the second installment. It still contains the Zoom technology and owns a very lightweight capacity, however, it features a very sleek base design and refers back to the original silhouette more than anything. As for the colorway, its possesses a primarily white upper with red and black details throughout the entire shoe. Expect to see this shoe worn by various Nike brand members during this upcoming season. What are your thoughts on the Air Zoom BB III? Click here to view detailed photos.
