Maybe that's why Tim didn't play.
Remember the shoe conspiracy after the TEAM USA picture was taken? Well, I think I might have found proof that it is true! Back a few weeks, news reports showed Coach K covering Howard's shoe for TEAM USA's team photo. Dwight Howard is the only TEAM USA member not sponsored by NIKE.
The photo in question :
Well, I was looking at the new pictures of TEAM USA in Beijing, and I found something that was funny and PROVES the Nike conspiracy :
LOL!
Maybe that's why Tim didn't play.
What conspiracy? He's still wearing the same warmup jacket with the same logo.
, if it's a conspiracy, you should have pointed out how his hand is covering up the short swoosh in the first pic, too. You can still see the swoosh on the jersey, though.
i dont see what the warmup jacket has anything to do with shoes
lol
Dwight gets his revenge...
Everyone else has their left arm behind their backs, but Howard had the basketball in his, and his arm hanging down to cover a certain logo on the uniform pants.
Conspiracy might be overstating it a bit. If the covering of the Nike swoosh is intentional, it probably came at the request of Howard and Adidas. I imagine Nike would actually want there to be pictures of Howard wearing their logo. Either way, it's an arrangement by rival companies to settle an awkward situation. A conspiracy would be something along the lines of a government going to the UN with a huge presentation of false information to justify the invasion of a foreign country that is strategically placed in the middle East and has tons of oil.

hyperdunks suck
gimme the CPs
do you guys even understand the topic?
where were you guys a few weeks back?
Everyone was talking about how Coach K was covering Dwight Howard's ADDIDAS shoe in the TEAM USA picture. Dwight Howard is the only TEAM USA member NOT sponsored by Nike.
so in the second picture, Howard can't even wear his Addidas shoes. He's down to walking around in sandals at media events.
I don't know what the you guys are talking about with the nike logos.
Um, those sandles are made by Adidas dude. And BTW, the covering of the Nike logo is and was part of the same story. lol that you're pissed people mentioned it.
I don't think there's any conspiracy. Sponsers know that there are some things out of their control. The league's uniforms are made by adidas. The players sponsered by Nike wear the uniforms. It is what it is. Finding "proof" is easy if you're looking for it.
Aren't those Adidas sandals he's wearing? The Nike swoosh on his shorts is covered by his hand, which is conveniently holding the basketball.
You are the quintessential conspiracy nut. First you bring up a topic that is not really a conspiracy, than you get angry when rational people try to explain it to you.
Let me guess: you think Carter, Bush, Clinton, and George W are conspiring together to keep the government's vast knowledge of UFOs a secret from the public, right?
This isn't a conspiracy. Makes for a fun discussion topic though.
isn't that a nike logo on the jersey near his right shoulder?
What's funny is the original poster and the subsequent posters are arguing two different things.
The original poster is trying to saying that the conspiracy is by Nike (collaborating with Coach K) to cover up Dwight's Adidas shoes.
Many of the rest of you are talking about Dwight trying to cover up the Nike logo.
Well, I'm not sure if Coach K was trying to cover up Dwight's Adidas's
Interesting. I didn't know that.
They're actually both true. I'm sure Nike doesn't want any Adidas stuff showing, and I'm sure Adidas wants to minimized Howard's Nike signage.
This is really nothing new, going all the way back to some of the original Dream Team wearing towels on the podium to cover non-sponsor logos. Tempest in a teapot, if you ask me.
thats when you know money is more important to these companies then being American. Howard should have said screw it I will were what everyone is wearing. Adadias.
$$$$$>than being American.
Isn't wade sponsored by Converse?
I actually read about this happening/conspiracy/event in revelations. Scary.
He was, I'm not sure if he is currently.
That's a Nike brand.
Ooooooooooooooh Chumpdumper silencing all the dissenters.
Not only Dwight. CP3, Melo, DWade. None of these guys ars sponsored by Nike. Dwight Howard is Adidas, DWade is Converse and Melo and CP3 are Jordan Brand. No conspiracy here!!
Aren't those addidas flip flops?
