Like many of us, LeBron James is sitting at home enjoying the NFL playoffs. Unlike most of us, King James is wearing a pair of the the highly-coveted Nike Kobe 6 "Prelude." The shoes feature an intricate graphic pattern with a purple mamba spewing venom against a tidal wave background. Rounding off the details is the intricate crystal burst pattern on the tongue and the clear outsoles. There's always been a mutual respect between Kobe Bryant and LeBron James, and this instance of the reigning NBA MVP rocking and giving props to his peer's signature sneaker is just another sign of that.
