John Wall signed a contract with Reebok (Bad choice because their kicks suck). And gets all sorts of money and his own shoe. Do you think Kyrie will get that opportunity with a brand before the season starts, during, in later years, or never? Because "Air Kyrie’s" sound pretty tight! lol

No idea when he gets a signature shoe, but if I had to guess, my guess would be him signing with Nike. I know that I may be biased, and that I probably am not incredibly educated in every other shoe company out there, but Nike to me seems like the way to go. I think they are ahead of the curve in not only marketing, but in technology that caters to athletes. Duke is a Nike, as was Kentucky mind you, but I would be surprised if Adidas (Reebok), end up getting Kyrie. John Wall was much more high profile than Kyrie, and I think that Adidas would probably go after bigger fish in bigger markets, though usually losing their athletes to Nike once they get their mind right, lol. Remember Kobe Bryant? That guy used to be with Adidas. Dropped them, went with Nike, pretty sure he is quite happy with the decision he made. I do not hate on Adidas, I think they make aesthetically pleasing shoes, and they have some great athletes signed too there brand (Derrick Rose, Dwight Howard, KG, Tim Duncan, than you have John Wall and Yao Ming with Reebok, and I guess you still count AI, anyone remember when he signed a life time contract with them?), but I think Nike makes the best athletic shoes out there, and I would think Kyrie would be leaning towards joining some faction of Nike (Nike Basketball, Jordan or Converse).

 Air Kyrie’s or Kyrie’s Air’s does sound good 🙂

I can see it now: "No one tells Patty Mills to STFU!"

Regardless of who he signs with, we know the shoes will have extra cushioning in the toe box

 Do you think his contract will be substantially less since it’s such a weak class, he’s going to the Cavs, and he only played 11 games and not that many people know about him? And how big will Jimmers contract be?
