Thank you @JohnGotty and @andscape. Big ups to @iammiaberry for getting USC star Jazzy Davidson in here too!

@RawrEWreckz @NickDePaula haha yup!

[Ian Stonebrook @ianstonebrook]

@AMP_FIELDVISION right here! https://t.co/EMSypnQ0dE

Those and his 14s were the hardest drops for sure! We had a list of 25+ we whittled it down to

Sidebar, those are his Suns pair - notice the purple sole - but he got new Knicks ones in 2006

[Chase Jordan @goatcollect]

You get an A for effort @ianstonebrook but you missed some very big Knicks PE’s including these QRICH Jordan 13’s in a Knicks colorway.

Jordan Brand has always been the pinnacle of PE’s. MJ picked the athletes. If you were blessed with a PE from the 🐐 it was a massive honor.

The ballboys phones would ring off the hook when QRich would break a pair like this out! He has always been the Knicks PE King in my view.

@Drewski0905 @goatcollect @ComplexSneakers would be great to break down the best non-signature hoops franchises

Hyperdunk, GT Cut, Pro Model, Air Force, etc

[Ian Stonebrook @ianstonebrook]

@edgewoodmax @goatcollect Appreciate it! Love the 2k3 and wild that Marbury played theoretically for free in 2k5 PEs for the season after AND1 when Starbury was in development

[MAXWELL @edgewoodmax]

@goatcollect @ianstonebrook Penny 2k3 & 2k5 also some fire

love the hype post! @ianstonebrook

sure we'll see some fun Brunson Kobe PEs for this, maybe even Hart?

[Ian Stonebrook @ianstonebrook]

@hank_lansky @goatcollect 🤣 haha nah different Richardson

[Ian Stonebrook @ianstonebrook]

@goatcollect love Mac and wanted an Adi guy on there, considered some of the heat Shump got in Knickstape era - a lot of dope EQT stuff - and dived deep to see if Pat's Forums were indeed PEs

fingers crossed Spurs list gets green lit and you might see Mac in silver D Roses

[Ian Stonebrook @ianstonebrook]

@goatcollect Q Rich 8s way up for me too, still remember when those and the Ray 8s

Love Lin and Melo, importance is there for sure, but nothing they played in PE-wise that moved the needle more than what we had or even some that didn't make the cut

What are five you'd put in/take out?

[Ian Stonebrook @ianstonebrook]

@evboogie happy bday!

[Paul Knepper @paulieknep]

Read about the last time the Knicks and Spurs met in the Finals in my book The Knicks of the Nineties. https://t.co/oYZYoXbcOS

@iBEENit my man you too!

[Ian Stonebrook @ianstonebrook]

Last sneaker I ever bought at the Lansing Mall, believe @iBEENit was picking them up from Foot Locker the same day

[Sneaker Market RO @sneakermarketro]

Air Jordan 9 Retro "Powder Blue" released on this day 16 years ago (May 29th, 2010). Anyone still have a pair in their collection? 💬

[Ian Stonebrook @ianstonebrook]

This is awesome

[🧢 @TheFakeAbeBeame]

A few weeks ago I hung out with Starker at a tiki bar on Fulton Mall to discuss rap progressivism ground in tradition on his fantastic new mixtape, for @brooklynmag.

[John Gotty @JohnGotty]

read Ian always

[Stevie Vandross @MrWhisperz]

Baltimore

[Ian Stonebrook @ianstonebrook]

"@underarmour told me they wanted to expand the brand,” @Vikings star Justin Jefferson told @andscape. “They’ve been listening to me.”

The All-Pro WR has found himself as the face of the Baltimore brand's football future

Thanks @JohnGotty for the help

Rakim-New York
Norega- Superthug
Nas-Hate me now
Ja Rule- Holla Holla

May be missing one but I always paid attention to that stuff as a kid so much!

For the latest edition of my Rate It Or Love It newsletter, I wrote about Drake's post-2k15 Golden Corral, and, even more interestingly, the worst all you can eat discourse in town. Tap in below:

For the latest edition of the Rate It Or Love It Podcast, me and @ianstonebrook went long on Ice Man, Maid of Honour, and Habibti. Did Drake have enough redemption tokens? Here's what we've got to say
