Tonight, Kobe Bryant, will take the court as the reigning NBA MVP for the first time in his 12 year career. After leading the Lakers to the best record in the highly competitive Western Conference and going 5-0 thus far in the Play-Offs, Bryant has finally taken his place among the pantheon of Basketball greats that have won the award before him. Previously considered the best player to never win the MVP, Kobe's 12 year MVP drought matched the longest time a player of his caliber had gone without winning the trophy. Karl Malone's 12 year MVP drought had been the longest before Kobe matched it this year.
 
When Kobe leads the Lakers in game two of the Western Conference semi-finals against the Utah Jazz, he will step on the court in a pair of PE "MVP" Nike Zoom Kobe Bryant III SLs (he wore them in game 1 as well). The "MVP" Nike Zoom Kobe III SL features a Lakers colorway with a White SL upper a Purple Swoosh and a Gold midsole. The toecap and the heel feature Croc patterned leather. Kobe's personal MVP design hits come at the tongue with a special MVP/Kobe Logo and specially designed MVP lucite box featuring the same logo lasered on the top.
 
At this point, the "MVP" Nike Zoom Kobe III SL PE is not scheduled to release. Should this change, we will create an update post.

    even tho these are Kobe's shoe and they have a special place in history they still suk i mean wtf cant they do better for the best baller since mj retired and possibly the best scorer basketball has ever seen nike needs ta do better smh... sm(mf)h

  • g money

    Well deserved for kobe......and i hope the lakers win it all .....**** shaq ....as for the shoes.......that is a hot logo and the croc skin was a great addition and the Kobe III is a great performance shoe....i hope they drop

  • digby

    Great shoe. Performance-wise inly Hyperdunk even comes CLOSE. After ballin tho put em in the gym bag, off court wearability is NADA.

  • KICKZyes

    WOW! That box and "MVP" logo is R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S! FYI -- Had CLE swept the Wizards, I don't think Kobe would've gotten the MVP so soon and it would've still been up in the air between him, LeBron and Chris Paul. CP is BAAAAAALLLLLIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNN!!!

  • jay

    those are hot! i want a pair...love the croc toe like the two! i agree. i want the iv's to be nicer cosmetically though!

  • lakerfanFASHO

    FIRE!!!!!!!! MVPMVPMVPMVPMVPMVPMVPMVPMVPMVP!!!!!!

  • chris paul is a beas

    wow this shoe is still ulgy even if kobe won the mvp........nike needs better people to work on kobe and lebron james shoe line asap

  • studiored

    To KICKZyes, you realize that the MVP voting was over once the playoffs started, right?

  • mike

    chris paul should have won the mvp and not kobe.

  • JB

    studiored i thought the same thing as you, but i am going to give him credit and say that he was thinking they might wait to make the announcement even thought the voting was over.

    The NBA does not set a date so they can do it when its best for publicity, he might be saying that they wanted to keep anticipation high if Lebron had dominated in the first round. Although that logic is a lil faulty since cp3 went off on the mavs.

    Personaly I think these are beautiful shoes. Eric Avar is a top notch designer (Jordan Jumpman pro) whos been in the bizz for a while. This is definatly a unique and well done design. Shoes are not outstanding court performers, but they are still very much above average basketball shoes.

  • rod

    nike is so hard up on ltd exclusives for every single kobe accolade.

  • kenny

    I NEED THESE!!! mike, you must be on DRUGS!!! chris paul will win one? just NOT this year? let him pay his due's first? and STOP HATING on my man Kobe!!! he deserve's it this year, and really in the years pass? but whatever. So just relax and enjoy the Playoff games!!! ps. Hey Nike PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE release these babies w/the Lakers colorways!!! Thanks :)

  • what

    chris paul should not have been mvp!

    if that was the case, then kobe should have been mvp when dirk and steve nash was mvp.

    shoes are fire!

  • hectic

    the xx3's are the best performance shoe out right now, they murk the zoom 3's and the hyperdunks

  • kenny

    they should murk the NKIII's they cost e-nuff? but for me, I'm going with Nike Kobe III's!!! for a buck 30 opposed to a buck 85 w/tax a buck 95,96 I'm cool? that's darn near $200???

  • jay

    to be honest..love the fact the nike is recognizing kob..will i cop this shoe if it drops..sure. i hear great things performance..just not a fan of the looks. i agree ..for both cosmetics and perf..aj xx3 rocks...i think if they move the kobe line more in line of the penny line than the huarache look i think it would be a better sellar!

  • UDONTEVENWATCHBASKET

    THese Kobe 3s are sick. Kobe has been puttin up the numbers for 12 years, Only other person even in the race should be Lebron, since his average this season being 30+ 8 boards and 7 dimes, hmmm only 2 players is NBA HISTORY to do it was Jordan and Oscar. And Jordan only did it once ( 89-90)! So don't be hating. Put the shoes out Nike. Don't do the harlem BS with house of hoops. NYC people have everything anyway ( except for a good team) they dont need ALL the exclusives. The pollution there will just make that white crock dirty anyway. STOP HATING-YOU_DONT_EVEN_WATCH_BASKETBALL-

  • snakxx
