In a recent interview, actor Michael Keaton revealed he wore Air Jordans during role in Batman film
Fans are always searching for ways to show their support for Michael Jordan or LeBron James as the best player in NBA history. While James has the edge in longevity, Jordan can always claim a superhero once wore his shoes.
Actor Michael Keaton wore a pair of custom Air Jordan 6 while playing the role of Batman in the 1989 film."That's what the shoes were made from," Keaton said. "They just made them and I was putting them on. I was like, `Wow, these are actually Jordans.' I got them stashed away, too. How much would you give me for them?"' 🦇 When Batman Laced Up in Air Jordans 👟🔥 #LegendaryStyle Here’s the full story with a block of hashtags at the end, all...During his playing days, Boston Celtics legend Larry Bird was known as one of the game's best shooters. He never had the label of 3-point specialists except when he competed in the competition at NBA All-Star weekend. It wasn't part of the game as it is today. "When the 3-point line came in in 1980 in the NBA game, if I was behind the 3-point line with the ball, we wouldn't even guard him," Bird said in an Internet clip. "We wouldn't go out there. We get off of him three or four foot and dare him to shoot." While many consider today's game boring because the amount of 3-point attempts, Bird considers it good for the game. He enjoys players like guard Stephen Curry and frontcourt stars like Nikola Jokic use the shot to their advantage. "To see the game to come to this point after 30-some years and teams are taking 35 a game ... some 50, my team started to shoot 25 or 30 again," Bird said. "I just never anticipated that. When I played, I never shot that many. A little bit later in my career, I shot more. But I never heard any that used it as your advantage. I've always at the end of the game if you're down one or if you're up two, you make a three-pointer to demoralize this team. Now, they make one nobody even flinches. I think it's been better for our game."Shandel has covered the NBA since 2010, with previous stops at The Athletic and South Florida Sun-Sentinel.
