NIKE AIR MAESTRO

Since the announcement of retirement on October 6 last year, there has been no news of "Batman" Scott Pippen for a long time. The Bulls are planning to hold a grand retirement ceremony for him and prepare to hang the 33rd jersey over the United Center to commemorate the "Bull Dynasty" veteran.
Whenever people mention the "bull dynasty", the first mention is necessarily the basketball god Michael Jordan; but never forget, is the omnipotent all-around warrior - Scott Pippen . If Jordan is a safflower, Pippen is the perfect green leaf.
Peripheral long-range shots, inside-line storms, ball-breaking counterattacks, and strong slam dunks... "Batman" beats opponents and seems to be easy to handle. Pippen's performance on the court is like the slogan designed by NIKE in 1997 for his AIR MAX UPTEMPO 3: omnipotent.


He has won countless glory and won the championship that others have dreamed of, but Pippen has not received the respect he deserves. Many people think that if there is no Jordan, Pippen may not get anything; Pippen can only be a "second child", he is not a handsome talent, can not lead the team to the top ... even signed Pippen NIKE, the attitude towards him is also very cold. A superstar who won four championship rings and was selected as the "NBA50 Superstar" actually got his first pair of signature shoes after entering the NBA for ten years. Not as good as a newcomer named Hardaway. And what is frustrating is that the AIR PIPPEN series did not achieve good sales results. The ambiguity of positioning and the omission of design have all been criticized for this star signature series.
However, "wild lily also has spring." What's more, we mentioned an outstanding star. Pippen's best personal performance was at the 1994 All-Star Game. Although the No. 33 jersey was taken away by Ewing of the same team (the All-Stars took uniform uniforms and could not have duplicate numbers), Pippen could only wear the unfamiliar No. 30 jersey. But the perfect performance of 29 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists allowed Pippen on the 30th to get his only MVP in his NBA career. Although the performance is undisputed, the words of David Robinson after the game made people pay more attention to "Batman": "We only pay attention to the red shoes under his feet, and did not concentrate on defending him. Lost the game and let him take the MVP."


Perhaps, "Admiral" is just a joke. But to a certain extent, this is indeed true. The flaming red AIR MAESTRO may be the most visible shoes in Pippen's career. Although there were countless players wearing AIR MAESTRO's other color schemes on the court, this is the first time the red color of this shoe appeared on the court. I couldn't think of such an unforgettable moment.
The configuration of AIR MAESTRO itself is not extraordinary, but the characteristics of the foot and the light weight are suitable for the "Batman" that Gao Laigao goes. And this appearance, but also its value doubled, the current first year AIR MAESTRO full red color price has been around 3,000 yuan, compared with Jordan's boots that year is not inferior, although its shape is far from The AIR JORDAN series is as compelling as it is. Even if it is so expensive, it is often "no price, no shoes", and countless SNEAKER has no chance to see its true face.
