Was it the lockout? Was it MJ’s retirement? No one knows exactly what it was, but a streetball renaissance hit hoops hard near the turn of the millennium. While AND1 gets due props for being at the forefront of it, Nike’s “Freestyle” commercial spawned the most artistic representation of the style shift and a pop culture meme. Not only did the campaign reach a mass audience, but it also saw Nike basketball’s youngest athletes and newest models on display. The likes of Vince Carter, Chamique Holdsclaw, and Darius Miles were matched with blacktop ballers like Luis Da Silva in sneakers such as the Nike Shox BB4 and Nike Air Hyperflight. The youthful expression blurred the lines of flair and function, further wondering what could be done with a basketball all while flashing up footwear in the form of heavy doses of bling and patent leather.

Will this lockout cause another counter-culture in basketball? A Euro-influenced game? Soccer styled sneakers? It’s too soon to tell, but today we look back to a time when the game was certainly changing, because you know, basketball never stops.
