ÿþAfter a tense first round that Nike Classic went to the Thunder and a convincing win by the Warriors in the second, the third round of this likely to be seven round match went to OKC in dominating fashion with a 133-105 win. Kevin Durant would lead the way with 33 points and a brand new pair of kicks for all of us to watch over in the form of the Nike KD 9. Wait, what?Photos courtesy of Layne Murdoch, Ronald Martinez and J Pat Carter of Getty Images/NBA, Sarah Phipps of The Oklahoman and Nike.
A lot of the credit has to go to Nike KD 9, uh& I mean Kevin Durant and the Air Jordan XXX, errr& actually Russell Westbrook. With the OKC big men providing the toughness, rebounding and defense, Nike Classics Durant and Westbrook have been able to score at a high rate especially at home. Durant once again wore the Nike KD 9 Cool Grey Preheat while Russell Westbrook continues to make the Air Jordan XXX look good, no matter how orange it gets.
Irving Nike Classic Shoes would rock yet another Nike Kyrie 2 PE with a gradient midsole and LeBron would strap up by bringing back the Nike LeBron Soldier 10 that he debuted during Game 3. Stephen Curry failed us by not wearing the Under Armour Curry Two Low Chef and opting instead for the Curry Two pair that he's been wearing for much of the Playoffs (how dare he wear what's he comfortable and not eating into the hands of Sneaker Twitter, right?) and much more in this championship night in kicks.
But Nike Air Max 360 this time he did so with the Nike Kobe 3 and Nike Kobe 5.As for the rest of the night in kicks, Kyrie Irving debuted yet another Nike Kyrie 2 Finals PE, Klay Thompson wonders when someone will ask him about his ANTA KT 1s (or not) and LeBron James switches back to the Nike LeBron 13 Elite after debuting the Nike LeBron Soldier 10 during Game 3.In a do or die situation against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Steph would lead a team effort and stave off elimination to force a Game 6 in OKC on Saturday.
The MVP's Curry Two was in full display on Thursday night, as were Russell Westbrook's Air Jordan XXX PE, Kevin Durant's Nike KD 9 Cool Grey and much more.And with that in mind, we have to keep ourselves amused at the KoF Offices by finding other things to talk about, such as the Ky-Rispy Kreme 2 iDs that Kyrie Irving wore last night in the Cavs' Nike Air Yeezy victory. The much-hyped NIKEiD pair helped Uncle Drew score 26 points. For more Ky-Rispy Kreme goodness.
That's part of a ginormous eight-pack of kicks celebrating Kobe Bryant's historic career (with Nike) in the Nike Kobe 4 Prelude. So which side wins? Well, only one of them was worn by Nick Young and thanks to Evan Turner, we might have the first recorded instance of Nick Young not smiling in a game.It's been a minute since we've seen either the Nike Zoom Kobe 7 or Paul George . While George actually did return for the return for the final games of the 2014-15 NBA season.
