Led by Jason Kidd, KG, The Glove, and Vinsanity, <strong>Team USA<\/strong> continued their winning ways by going a perfect 8-0 and grabbing the gold down under. From new technology to patriotic retros, America rocked it all and rocked it right. Find out who wore what in this installment of <a title=\"Roster Rewind\" href=\"\/tag\/roster-rewind\/\"><em>Roster Rewind<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Nike Shox BB4<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Worn By:<\/strong> Vince Carter, Jason Kidd, Tim Hardaway, Allan Houston, Antonio McDyess &amp; Shareef Abdur-Rahim<\/p>\n<p>The world?s biggest stage for sports often serves as a launching pad for new Nike technology. Recent signee Vince Carter took this to heart, soaring in the all-new <strong>Shox BB4<\/strong>. Many of his teammates adopted the same sneakers, with the brand later lacing the squad in Navy\/Gold PEs.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>Air Jordan 6 &#8220;Olympic&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Worn By:<\/strong> Ray Allen &amp; Vin Baker<\/p>\n<p>Recently retroed, the <strong>Air Jordan 6 ?Olympic?<\/strong> made its debut down under as Jumpmen Ray Allen and Vin Baker dropped their modern Mikes for the 91 remix. Young Shuttlesworth gave his best endorsement, shooting over 50% beyond the arc in the Oly Airs.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>Nike Air Zoom GP II<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Worn By:<\/strong> Gary Payton<\/p>\n<p>GP was sans signature back in ?96, but Nike made up for it by dressing him an Olympic colorway of the <strong>Zoom Glove II<\/strong>. Gary spread the love on court too, coming in second in dimes only to his backcourt brethren J-Kidd.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>Nike Air Flightposite 2<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Worn By:<\/strong> Kevin Garnett<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Garnett brought the Original Block Family to the other hemisphere, rocking his semi-signature <strong>Flightposite 2<\/strong> in gradient and Olympic tones. This wasn?t the only gift from the brand, as they also mocked up a KG III colorway for media shots.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>Nike Air Force Authority<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Worn By:<\/strong> Alonzo Mourning<\/p>\n<p>One would expect Zo to jump on the Shox bandwagon, but the big man has always had distinct taste in sneakers. Mourning exercised his own power in the <strong>Air Force Authority<\/strong>, serving up 14 swats in just six games.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>Reebok Velocity Mid<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Worn By:<\/strong> Steve Smith<\/p>\n<p>The lone Reebok rocker brought his sweet jumper and fake spin move with him to Sydney. <strong>Steve Smith<\/strong> represented for the Vector, sporting the DMX laden and team friendly <strong>Velocity Mid<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Sources:<a title=\"Mis Zapas\" href=\"http:\/\/miszapas.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Mis Zapas<\/a>, <a title=\"Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/32916852@N08\/4995291422\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flickr<\/a>, SI Vault?&amp; What Are Do<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who rocked the best kicks on the 2000 team?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2415,"featured_media":225404,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[1225551,1225735],"cultivate_rss":[],"class_list":{"2":"type-post"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.0 (Yoast SEO v24.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kicks On Court: A Roster Rewind of the 2000 USA Basketball Team | Snkrs Day<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Where to buy Kicks On Court: A Roster Rewind of the 2000 USA Basketball Team shoes.
