Lang and Russ dive into the time machine to chat about the adidas Top Ten sneaker, born in '79 but totally rocked the '80s! It was dubbed 'Top 10' with high hopes of it gracing the famous feet of the NBA's elite, but the top 10 players didn't sport these stylish kicks. Unfortunately, the players that signed weren’t necessarily the top 10 players playing basketball. Lang and Russ explore the sneaker tales of the '80s that didn't quite live up to the hoop dreams!
