RIF.LA X NLB.net Exclusive Look at the Wheat/Gum Nike Zoom 20-5-5 Ultra Rare Sample »

The shoe you see below is a very special Nike Zoom LeBron sneaker. We posted the very first online photo back in 2007 and I’m sure that was the only angle you’ve seen so far. Today, courtesy of RIF.LA, we get an exclusive look at these unreleased and very rare Zoom 20-5-5 Samples. Featuring a Cream/Wheat upper and a translucent Gum outsole, which looks simply amazing, they join a selected group of GUM LeBrons. It’s really too bad none of them made it into production thus far. If you like Gum 20-5-5′s, be sure to visit RIF.LA as these rumored one-of-one samples are available for purchase (size 9 of course).

James, Ilgauskas, Cavaliers Break Franchise and NBA Records »

The NBA has never seen anything like these Cleveland Cavaliers. On a night when their top two players set franchise records, the Cavs broke a league mark with a 114-94 romp over the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday. LeBron James scored 31 points and became Cleveland’s career steals leader and Zydrunas Ilgauskas moved atop the Cavaliers’ rebounding chart as Cleveland improved to 12-0 at home with its latest rout. In winning their ninth straight by at least 12 points, the Cavaliers, now 17-1 since Nov. 3, are the first team in league history to win nine consecutive games in a single season so handily. Cleveland came in tied with Portland (1990-91), Chicago (1996-97), Detroit (2003-04) and Houston (2007-08). Nine wins. Nine routs. “That’s unbelievable,” James said. “Knowing the history of some of the great teams, the Chicago Bulls team that went 72-10, the Celtics teams, the Lakers teams and the Pistons teams, it’s unbelievable for our franchise to accomplish something like that.” And the way they’re playing, it doesn’t look like the Cavs have any intention of slowing down. They’ve won the nine games in their streak by an average of 21.5 points. Enjoy LeBron’s NBA photos from the past three games after the jump.
