The New York Knicks didn’t put the together the most successful post-season bid this year, losing nobly in the first round to eventual champions the Miami Heat. Had they stayed around though you might have seen a bit more Jordan Brand action on court, with Wade’s elimination leaving Melo’s sneakers to shine. Speaking of which you’ll recall he never made the transition to a separate playoffs model like last year, and as a result we’re just now getting wind of said model: the Jordan Melo M8 Advance. Check out the images that include a couple ‘Knicks’ colorways, a ‘Legion of Doom’, and one paying tribute to Melo’s home turf of Red Hook, Brooklyn.

The first round of the NBA Playoffs lined up in such a way that one of Jordan Brand’s marquee names had to fall to another. The one to go down was of course Caremlo Anthony along with his New York Knicks, falling to Dwyane Wade and the Heat in a series that saw their two signature sneaks put to work in their post season colorways. Along with the Jordan Melo M8 and Jordan Fly Wade 2 EV the rest of our sightings have a similar contemporary lean, with players perhaps switching out the retros for more modern performance based models.

Is Mike Bibby the low-cut version of Carmelo Anthony? Ok that’s probably a stretch by any means of the imagination given the distance between them in play style, but at the very least his sneakers represent a chopped down approach to Melo’s Jordan Brand sig.

Hit the jump for a better look and stay tuned for word on whether the Jordan Melo M8 Low will ever make it to retail. Photos: Mike Bibby
