Kobe Bryant vs LeBron James – The Never Ending Story »

Last night, two All-Stars players, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James, faced each other in the very anticipated Cavaliers vs Lakers match up. It was a battle of two of the best teams in the NBA (at that very moment), two of the best players in the game (arguably), and two of the best basketball sneakers in the game. Kobe vs LeBron – the never-ending story. However, if was the Lakers that were celebrating the 105-88 victory in the end. Both superstars were having problems finding an easy way to score as they were guarding each other most of the time in this very physical match up. As for the kicks involved Kobe unveiled the new “Mamba” colorway of his latest signature sneaker Nike Zoom Kobe IV. LeBron, just as expected, rocked the ZLVI Los Angeles edition, which features a predominately grey upper with smoke grey and red accents, but wasn’t a good fit for Cavs’ alternate road jerseys. Plenty of game photos after the jump.
