Today is a big day for LeBron James fans. Nike Basketball is about to release the Championship/MVP Pack, which includes two different styles – Nike LeBron 9 and Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite. I wish I did have better news, but right now it does seem like a very limited drop with no online option. The regular gradient fade version sporting classic Miami Heat colors is almost identical to what King James wore on May 13th, 2012. His Player Exclusive version has a slightly different MVP plate on the back. The Finals colorway, on the other hand, is a different story. Not only the logo is different, but Nike is releasing them with a standard black Carbon Fiber plate compared to red on LeBron’s PE. Also, the retail version doesn’t have speckles on the Air Max unit. Once again, good luck on your MVP pack hunt!

Fuck You Nike
Thanks to Nike I have to drop 1k on ebay to get these, there not even all that, I should save my money for the Ten's/X's. Nike fucks up again to the true fans and sneakerheads. How about I go to China and take over one of there Nike factory and give away shoes to the true fans Im sure the famous get the hook up w/o waiting in line or on hold for hours, I live 15 mins from a mall In a high populated area where they have stores that sell Jordan's but No Lebron's Fuck them Nike reps
Nike screwed us over! Fuck Nike!
Everybody say fuck Nike including myself but we still buy when are we going to wake up from this mind control Nike got us in
I agree with everything you guys have said but simply stop buying them if you feel that way. My collection is more important to me than making a stand against Nike but if you feel differently, don't buy them.
After seeing theses shoes sell on Ebay for $2000-$3000+ i wont lie..
Lebron... you loss some respect from me by only selling them in FL Especially selling the shoes as a pair. So i got one finger for you and nike and its not the index. So i hope you reconsider your actions. It's making me reconsider even collecting Lebrons now.
Wow, how stupid is the consumer? Why would anyone possibly purchase these shoes on ebay for $3000+? Do you people not understand that the consumer sets the price for products, not the seller? Because a handful of people with deep pockets got impatient, now the market has been set for this pack and it's an unrealistic price point. If people would've left these resellers hanging out to dry for a few weeks, I promise the asking price would've dropped to a more "reasonable" number that more of us could afford. Once again, shame on Nike but also shame on all you idiotic and impatient people who fell for what these douche bag resellers wanted.
GOT EMM!!!!!
