For all you ballers out there

Which pair of ball shoes should I get? (not for rocking casually, im gonna be playing in them) which do you guys prefer?
Kobe 8- http://imgur.com/F9xhr3t
Hyperdunk 2013- http://imgur.com/XBKzvPw
(There are other colourways of each shoe, these just give you the general idea of what they look like)
Note: both shoes perform similarly so my decision is based on what you guys think is cooler or whatever. Thanks!

i like my kobe 8's, which are currently my indoor shoes. rotated my hyperfuse 2010's to outdoor game and they've held up so far lol. i generally play pg/sg.

Overpriced basketball shoes made with cheap labor in 3rd country endorsed by professional basketball players won't make you a better player.

KOBE 8? Dude you have to get the Kobe 9's yo. For a guard tho Hyperdunk 2013 are the best way to go, performance wise. 1) You play several positions not just one set 2) Great traction and support. Just go watch Kicksoncourt and you'll see.

@DaGhettoBoy: Melo M10s? Man such a beast shoe...I think I should cop them for basketball or Stick with my XX8 SE's.

@Quik: Jordan 28 SEs are great but with that huge jordan price tag I recommend not playing out doors with them might ruin the traction for indoor game

@Quik: Forget the Kobes you're gonna tear a tendon (Kobe for example) The hyperdunks might be a little sluggish so either get the hyperdunks or maybe try hyperfuse or (Jordan) CP3 7s
