I know the Bulls have that tradition where whenever they are in the postseason each player wears black sneakers.
What other teams wear them or if not, what are some other traditions that certain teams do when they make the playoffs?

NJ Nets also....
Boston..but I think that's an all season tradition.
....clearly the NBA has a non-black playoff shoe agenda !
IIRC the black shoes/black socks were popularized by the Michigan Wolverines Fab Five and it caught on with the NBA...or were they doing the "Playoffs blacktops" before that.
NBA needs to catch on to hockey/baseball and get the playoff beards thing going except Gooden who should be forced to shave his beard everytime his team makes the playoffs.

Where did you get all teams from?
The Lakers nor Nuggets wear them nor do the Mavs.

The Lakers wear black shoes when they are in their road purples.

Oh, I didnt even know that was " something". I think they wear them to go best with their uni's. Didnt realize it was anything more.

Lakers bench doesn't sit down until Lakers score a point.
