Orlando's Pietrus is Taking Off His Kobe-Endorsed Shoes
TEAMS: Orlando Magic,  Los Angeles Lakers
PLAYERS: Mickael Pietrus,  Kobe Bryant,  Michael Jordan
Orlando Magic guard Mickael Pietrus knows that the best way to guard Kobe Bryant is to think like him. Get inside his head. Walk a mile in his shoes. Well Pietrus is taking those shoes off. Pietrus has been wearing Kobe Bryant endorsed Nikes this season but will switch them up for the NBA Finals. Pietrus says he'll be wearing his "Michael Jordan shoes" instead.

    All I can think about is the "Like Mike" movie when the little orphan found a pair of Jordan's and he put them on and immediately he had magical powers on the court. He was asked to play for an NBA team and with those shoes he helped lead his team to the play offs, and in one of the biggest games, his shoes were stolen and his powers were taken away.....now, let me put it how I see it... Peitrus, Kobe's shoes is what got you were you are, his shoes= your ability to perform at a higher level....take his shoes off and that will = doom!!! Even if you are replacing them with Jordan the great!!!! If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Show Kobe that you are better than him in his shoes!!!! Can't wait til Thursday......LETS GO LAKERS!!!

    I hate the lakers, but I love great basketball shoes. Those lowtop Kobe's are the best sneaks I've ever warn.
