The summertime is a great stretch of time where you can consistently run basketball games outside. Since basketball never stops, Nike shows you how the summer is serious by running a pickup game in Brooklyn this Friday with teams chosen & coached by either Kevin Durant or James Harden.
Both Harden and Durant picked 7 players each for their team to compete in what is likely to be the pickup game of the each of their lives so I hope they go hard. Below you can watch a video a breakdown of each player for each team as well as their player cards.
While the Team Durant players will be wearing a Nike iD version of the new KD VI, maybe with the new Chroma option, Team Harden members will lace up a pair of the Lunar Hyperdunk 2013 that Beardman made himself that are said to include a few glow-in-the-dark accents.
Jalen Rose & Bill Simmons are joined by the Player/Coach/GMs themselves James Harden & Kevin Durant who provide rebuttal to their commentary.
On Friday, August 16th, the Nike #SummerIsSerious ultimate pickup game goes down in Brooklyn, NY. Basketball never stops.
