Are the ADs really that trash to ball in, watched a few videos from JAH/weartesters/nightwing and they trashed them so badly.

Great shoe! A lot of NBA players are wearing these more and more now... really don't get all the hate??? Think it has a lot to do with Kobe not playing and Nike calling them A.D.s instead of 12s! These are one of my favorite hooping shoes ever!

Yeah those reviewers make them seem like the worst Kobe ever.

I think NBA players wearing them is a more meaningful endorsement of the shoe than some unathletic Joe Shmo on YouTube. Granted, that is dependent upon the retail version, and the NBA version being the same shoe. I do not know if NBA players wear a beefed up version of sneakers.

Huh, just because they're wearing em doesn't mean they're good shoes, they probably got heavily modified versions to fit their feet tbh.

I trust NBA players using a shoe more than anyone. They put in the work and literally beat shoes to the ground faster than any one of us.
That being said, there's also a lot of misinformation on here in regards to what players are using on court. Most shoes are what you can get off nikeid or your local store. Very few guys in the league actually have modified shoes, instead they use orthotics for maximum comfort.

dudes on youtube can't even ball for real 
thats why I've never trusted any reviews for performance shoes. Ive never worn em so I can't comment but I bet they'll be decent
nba players wear what THEY want. Nike aint forcing anyone to wear the AD.... if a player doesn't like the way a shoe performs or feels they won't wear em, easy as that.
