Adipower is Howard's signature model, which belongs to the center shoes and is a heavyweight model, suitable for people in the center and power forward positions. Focus on cushioning and ankle protection. Shoes are heavy, ankle flexibility is average, vertical cushioning ability is strong, and wrapping is mainly reflected in ankle.

Adizero is Ross's signature model, belonging to guard shoes. It is light and suitable for large and small guards and small forwards. Pay attention to knee pads, strengthen the sense of field, and improve the speed of starting and stopping. The shoes are light, the forefoot is well wrapped, and the ankle is generally wrapped, which can meet the needs of the game, because there is no shoe that will not sprain the ankle. The advantages lie in the first-class sense of field and grip in vertical (emergency stop and emergency stop) and lateral (lateral shift), without too much procrastination caused by buffering, high ankle flexibility, reduced sense of restraint, and many emergency stop and emergency stop actions can be done.

After cushioning protection, let's talk about breathability. Adipower is a typical midsole shoe with thick uppers and ankles. The price of enhanced protection is reduced air permeability. Adizero is a lightweight, speed-oriented type, and the upper has been hollowed out in many places, which reduces the weight of the shoes and increases the air permeability of the shoes. So in terms of air permeability, adizero completely beats adipower.

Talk about selling points. Generally speaking, there is a saying that the center does not sell shoes. Because the center shoes are heavy, generally breathable, running and controlling the ball on the court are short, there are few tricks in the game, at most, that is, dunks, and there are no difficult moves like flying or pulling rods like guards, so the brand influence is relatively small.

Having said that, you should also be able to determine your own sneakers according to your own weight and playing style.

In addition, I'll give you some advice:

1. If you are a big man, it is recommended to jump with your feet and calves (refer to the style of skilled big men), and it is not recommended to jump with your waist. One is to affect your starting speed, and the key is that incorrect bouncing will hurt your back and knees (referring to the style of powerful big man, McGrady's back injury is caused by dry pull jump shot). In this regard, you can search some articles on the Internet, especially about how to protect your back and knees when playing and training.

If you are small, I suggest you practice jump shot more. After all, jump shot is easier than scoring, which can avoid physical contact and reduce injuries (ray allen and reggie miller have long careers, and Bird's career achievements are more than that if he doesn't fight with others).

If you are a breakthrough, I suggest you use vertical emergency stop to get rid of the defense. The average defender will surrender his gun after two rounds of emergency stop at most.

If you move sideways to get rid of your opponent, it will increase the burden on the cruciate ligament of your ankle and knee. For amateurs, they don't want to spend months in bed or wheelchair because of a breakthrough injury. And try to use your feet when taking off and landing, and the impact on your ankle will be reduced. You don't have to jump too hard to make a three-step layup, and you can score with the same time difference. This can protect the meniscus and ligament on your knee and reduce wear (refer to Joe's career changes in the early, middle and late years). After all, it is just for fun.

Said a lot, relevant, irrelevant. I hope you can have a pleasant summer vacation on the court.
