Ben Wallace's Starbury Shoes
The Bulls clinched a playoff spot for the third consecutive year last night against their division rival Pistons, but that wasn't the only reason why the game was notable: it was also the first time that Big Ben was sporting his new Starbury kicks. Here's what he had to say before the game:
"I had couple of days to practice in them," Wallace of the shoes, which have a $14.98 retail price. "It's not a bad shoe at all. I mean, if anybody has doubts, then tonight they should come here to see what a $15 shoe can do."
Turns out the shoe can do a lot -- Ben grabbed a game-high 19 rebounds against his former teammates. He's expected to get his own signature edition of the shoe next year with presumably his own logo, but in the meantime it's pretty convenient that he shares the same jersey (No. 3) number as Marbury.
