Kicks On Court: Is the Soldier III the New Cavs Team Shoe?
Posted by George Kiel III | May 12, 2009|
Since the 2008-09 NBA playoffs began, LeBron James has been sporting the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III. As the playoffs continue, our Kicks On Court is starting to see more and more of James’s teammates marching forward in the Zoom LeBron Soldier III. With that said, it seems ‘King James’ has a very big influence on some of his teammates not only basketball-wise, but sneaker-wise as well. In the fourth and final game of the Atlanta Hawks-Cleveland Cavaliers series, Cavs’ guards Delonte West and Mo Williams both hooped in the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III along with ‘King James’. On another note, we even spotted Zydrunas Illgauskas rocking the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier II in a black colorway. Can LeBron ultimately influence the entire Cavaliers team to wear the his shoe? Click here to view more kicks worn by Joe Johnson, Mike Bibby, Josh Howard and others. |

the cavs are the ones who better watch out..they aint never seen a player like kobe yet in these playoffs..and when they do, they’ll be in for a rude awakening..like the soldiers though

tOO MANY KIDS ON LEBRONS NUTS IN THIS ONE…but anyway, the Zoom Soldier III is the cleanest one, and much more comfortable than the LBVIs. but not to be all kobe and all, but the Hyperdunk and ZKIV are much more comfy than Lebrons, seriously tho. And Jordans top everything off in style.
On a different note…KOBE ALL THE WAY! Lakers BABY!

A “funny coincidence” that Lebron is also number 23? Are you serious?
Checked out the Soldier IIIs at the mall today and they look pretty nice–I think I would take them over the VI. They are way lighter than the Flight Clubs, which I also tried on…

bron i think personally is the only one who will be closest to mike i think it was a funny coincendence he also number 23 but ive seen this guy playin an he does got skill this year so far he leading tha cavs to the finals no doubt the fourth game with atl hawks was madd wid mo and lebron if anbody saw it
i think the cavs still got the streak

the jumpman pros are the best

I still see LeBron v. Kobe happening…Nuggets will push it to at least 6 though
May 12, 2009 at 3:30 pm
And I defintely believe that if and whenever LA gets past Houston, Denver can and is gonna win that series.
But I’d much rather see a LeBron/Kobe, Cavs/Lakers matchup.

Real recognize real. Not only is it in support of LeBron, but it’s also the fact it’s a nice shoe.
Denver Nuggets are the ultimate choke artists as of now. 3-0, only to lose the close out?
Only bigger choke this playoffs would be LA losing to Houston, which I’d like to see happen, but game 4’s like Sun.’s don’t come around so often.

feelin Joe’s jumpman pros….colorway goes perfect wit the hawks jerseys…..Bibby seems to almost always have a decent colorway frm JB…..why is there a pic of marvin in some hyperdunks…some plain ones at that….and the fact that lebron has the gaurds showin respect with the soldier 3’s just goes to show how much confidence lebron instills in them….the verdict: Lakers v.s Cavs in the Finals…Lakers in 7…its gonna be a year to remember…
May 12, 2009 at 3:04 pm
Stick to sneaka’s…. sneaka speaka…
Marvin Williams got a clean pair of Hyperdunks on… But yeah.. I’ll go with them Soldier III’s anyday
May 12, 2009 at 2:48 pm
yo i think the celtics are gonna take it all again. they did last year right. the lakers and cavs CAN BE BEAT if they put there minds to beaten them. come on hawks! 4-0, you can do better than that. the cavs are only as good as they are because of james

Soldier II’s are possibly the worst Lebrons and Soldier III’s are possibly the best Lebrons ever in my opinion
May 12, 2009 at 1:24 pm
Everybody on the Cavs are wearin Nikes now. Just like the Lakers.
May 12, 2009 at 12:20 pm
