HoopsTalk is a perennial Q&A session that features a plethora of Nike Basketball athletes. Scheduled to make the appearance today were Shannon Brown, Pau Gasol, Paul Pierce, DeMar DeRozan, Kevin Durant and LeBron James among others. This year, a live simulcast brought the interactive show to House of Hoops by Foot Locker locations across the country and around the globe, and, thanks to Facebook, right into fans’ living rooms, making this a global event. All Star fans in Dallas eagerly lined up outside the crowded store to catch a glimpse of the athletes. Everyone that didn’t get into the store was accommodated with monitors in the windows and throughout the mall to watch the live feed. I, on the other hand was one of the few people that was allowed to move around freely and meet some of the athletes in the green room. One of the few that left a lasting impression was DeMar DeRozan, scheduled to participate in the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest that evening. He was fairly quiet, but was happy to meet a fan and grateful for the encouragement for the evening’s festivities.
The Air Jordan I Silver Anniversary with the Metal case, Copper Foamposites and Air Jordan 2010 will all drop at House of Hoops this weekend.
The AJF 8 Black/Bright Concord-Aquatone-Dark Charcoal will hit Foot Locker and House of Hoops on March 6.
The Christmas Day showdown between NBA superstars Kobe Bryant and LeBron James will include their latest signature sneakers in special make up colorways. They are extremely limited but you can get the Kobe V here and/or the LeBron VII here.
A foursome of Houston-inspired Jordans will be hitting the House of Hoops in Chicago this Saturday, December 19. These shoes were created for the House of Hoops grand opening in Houston and have been available only at the Houston HOH locations until now.
This past year there have been a bunch of new House of Hoops stores popping up, and it’s not as easy to keep track of them as it was in the days of just NY, Chicago, and LA. In the interest of helping out, here’s a full list of current House of Hoops locations. Bookmark the page for easy reference.
Who knows? Maybe there’s one closer than you thought.

The Air Jordan XII Flu Game is now available at footlocker.com and Foot Locker stores.
This version is a tribute to the legendary game in 1997 when MJ dropped 38 points while battling the Flu. The classic image of MJ leaning on Scottie Pippen after the game is very familiar to hoops fans. Unlike the original AJ XII Black/Red, this version’s upper is made of rich black suede. The OG version read TWO3 down the tongue while this version reads 97 38 with a sick face in the middle. That same logo that represents the year and points scored is displayed on the heel.
