  • Kicks On Court: Kobe Unwraps “Christmas” Shoes & Nick Young Revisits LeBron’s “First Game”
    By on May 20th, 2012 | No Comments Comments

    The Staples Center in Los Angeles is an extremely busy arena right now. In addition to hosting back-to-back games in the Lakers vs. Thunder series, the world-class arena is also in the midst of hosting back-to-back games in the Clippers vs. Spurs series and playoff games for the Kings, Los Angeles’ professional hockey team. Additionally, Staples is the center of attention in our Kicks On Court column today. In the first matchup there yesterday, we spotted Nick Young in the “First Game” Nike Air Zoom Generation. If you recall, this was the very shoe LeBron James played his first NBA game in back in October of 2003, hence the nickname of this shoe. In the second bout, the Black Mamba celebrated Christmas in May by rocking the “Christmas/Cheetah” Kobe VIIs in a loss to the Thunder. You may remember Kobe bringing these out during the first game of the 2011-2012 NBA season on Christmas Day. Nick Young and Kobe Bryant shared the spotlight today, but who rocked the best shoes on court between the two? Let us know in the voting poll below.
