Kobe Bryant was ‘supposed’ to match Michael Jordan’s six championship rings and two three-peats last season, but instead, the Black Mamba is back in the hunt for that elusive one for the other thumb against an array of hungry young talent unmatched during his time in the league.  Kobe will need all the help he can get without Lamar Odom or Dwight Howard, so having an ally in something as ferocious as a great white shark certainly wouldn’t hurt to have at your disposal.

Kobe Bryant has at times been accused of being a lone wolf, an assassin-type whose main concern is his own dominance, and who will let once-in-a-lifetime partnerships fall to the wayside at the expense of ego games.  But Kobe proved to be a consummate leader in guiding the Los Angeles Lakers to two championships in the late ’00s, and has established himself as the greatest Laker of all time, even in the eyes of ‘The Big AARP’ to whom we alluded.

Kobe’s ‘Black Mamba’ moniker has been with him for a while now, but on the Nike Zoom Kobe VII he’s been taking inspiration from a host of different animals. On tap for next month is the Nike Zoom Kobe VII ‘Wolf’ , which isn’t the first release for this particular silhouette to opt for the wolf grey tone , but of course it’s the animalistic tie-in with the beastly badge on back that makes them special

There’s a story from the  Toronto Raptors  inaugural season back in 1995-96 that’s currently making the rounds in the basketball blogosphere where Anthony Mason is quoted having evinced that he could not only set fashion trends, but also had a direct line to Nostradamus for one of the most common online disses a decade and a half later. “Dinosaurs, brotha?” Mason asked of the OG Raps, “If I was you, I’d [REMOVED] kill myself.” Mason’s then Knicks teammate Charles Oakley was also noted as offering some disparaging comments regarding Toronto’s cartoonish uniforms, which he ironically ended up wearing a few short years later, along with some sweet mini-dreads to bring the whole thing full circle.

February will be a month of hot releases, but none will be as significant as the Black History Month releases put forth by Nike. Here’s a first look at the Nike Zoom Kobe VII ‘Black History Month’; it features A Black/Grey colorway with a translucent outsole with a graphic print owning the entire upper as well as the inner lining. The print seen on the upper is clearly inspired by traditional African artwork, but the specific inspiration behind the design isn’t yet known

Modern science shows how all the matter that makes up our bodies and every object with which we come into contact, was constructed from atoms created by fusion in the heart of white-hot stars. So for this year’s NBA All-Star festivities in Orlando, Nike Basketball is getting back to the source with a twist on the traditional East-blue/West-red motif. Utilizing a theme we’ve seen echoed on the LeBron 9 ‘Big Bang’, the Nike Zoom Kobe VII ‘All-Star’ comes through with a colorful intergalactic scene laid atop a black base for a shoe that looks like it could have just as easily been produced by a trillion dollar telescope at NASA as the four-lettered N- company who made them

“The only way to answer your question…is with more questions.” During the first two lectures discussing the beginning levels of the Kobe System, self-improvement guru Kobe Bryant provided some profound insight for Aziz Ansari and Serena Williams , helping them achieve success beyond success. The focus now goes on Chinese superstar entertainer Wang Leehom, who struggles with the perception of the Nike Zoom Kobe VII and a Great White Shark as integral components of the Kobe System instead of independent entities. The most important lesson he learns is that Wang now understands that he must perceive himself as something greater than great – which can lead to, say, five NBA titles and four All-Star Game MVPs.

The Kobe System consists of seven distinguished levels of life-improvement, with the first level starting at ‘Success’. Most of us have a long way to go to even reach the Level 1 status , but one way to quickly get on the System is to get the Nike Zoom Kobe VII on your feet. This Black/White/Grey colorway was previewed extensively before (as early as November), and many praised it for its no-frills colorway as it gave our readers a true detailed look at the overall construction of the shoe.
