1) It's WAS NOT our decision what images could be posted.
2) These weren't designed as "teaser" images or anything of the sort. That's what you cornballs are calling it. These are the only photos available. Again, it's not our call.
3) The position of CounterKicks as already stated is that we run full photos of a new release. You guys are just not making any damn sense if you realize that as a breaking sneaker news outlet, if we release cropped photos and then someone ELSE posts the full shoe, we would get outscooped. We would never make that gamble. The images you are viewing are the ONLY ones we have. We are releasing them and will not wait "until we could post full pics" like the cornball above who can't process the meaning of words said as then we would be the late to the party if ANYONE posted it. These are the FIRST images of the Nike LeBron 9. Point Blank.
4) You didn't get just images. We revealed new detailed technical and aesthetic information on the shoes that wasn't available previously. That's news in and of itself.
5) The ONLY plausible/vaguely-informed opinion on this issue came up a total of once in this thread. Why are cropped photos out but the full shots aren't able to be posted? The curt, direct answer is again that the decision of what images were run was not our call. If it was, we would have run everything in full, with like 50 high res images. The more drawn out answer is that these shoes still remain highly sensitive and thus there's a high risk involved when you're dealing at this level that many of you, quite frankly, just have ZERO knowledge of or experience with in the past to comprehend. You would have seen the shoe 20 times by now otherwise. There's actual jobs and people's livelihood at stake here in releasing things so early (which NONE of you were considerate enough to think about), all so a handful of you can piss and moan about it. Doesn't get much cornier, guys. We pushed at every step to be able to publish full images for the initial unveil. Didn't happen. We are still of the position that if cropped photos can be shown, full photos could be shown too. NOT OUR CALL, but this was and is our official stand and what we pushed to make happen for weeks. We spend countless hours, days, weeks, developing and researching info for and out of respect for our readers. You, as a reader, must also respect the wishes of our sources as well, as we very much do. The full shoe shots should be out soon enough now that the wheels are in motion and the release is getting closer.
End of story. If you read that and STILL are trying to force a fantasy argument, something is wrong with you. For real.
