I finally found it! It's only a few short clips I had recorded but it's Al McCoy calling a Dbacks game on June 3, 1998--the game ended with a walk-off home run by Vinny Castilla for a Rockies win over the Diamondbacks. I just uploaded it to YouTube now:

I wish Nike put Zoom Air in the forefoot as well, but I didn't really expect it since they've only done that in signature lines of players a tier above Booker. I think breathability will also be a performance issue, so it's pretty likely I won't be getting these to wear on the court. But the design does have appeal for casual wear so hopefully the less flashy colorways are widely available.

Looking at this team vs. last years.... Really like our roster and what we've done. Definitely better than last year.

Heh. That double team quote isn't going away, is it. I mean, I can see both sides of it. I see Book's side if everybody is just working on their game with no cares about winning or losing. But basketball-wise, of course your doubling the leading scorer. No doubt. But please, can we move on?

They will probably release on the “Sneakers” app or the Nike app. Sneakers is the Nike special release app.

They look a lot like Air Force 1s in the back. I will get a pair in black.

I took that Noah comment as a compliment. The way I read it, he’s basically saying Book is right, they shouldn’t be doubling in this sorta run, but the guy was so hot they had to do something. In a way he’s justifying Book’s frustration and telling the world how good Book was.
