Opponent: Denver Nuggets
Analysis: Kobe Bryant debuted the “Bruce Lee” Nike Zoom Kobe V during a nationally televised game against the Denver Nuggets. The Lakers loss to the Nuggets for the second time during the 2009-2010 NBA season; however, Kobe won over many fans with this colorway of his fifth signature shoe. Nike paid tribute to Kobe’s love for Kung Fu with this special design. The Flywire-laced, low-cut basketball sneakers were frowned upon when they first surfaced. The yellow upper and laces are directly inspired by the yellow bodysuit Bruce Lee wore in “The Game of Death”. There are also four red scratch marks on the lateral toe area. These marks duplicate the scratches Bruce Lee took while fighting in “Enter the Dragon”.
