** Official Nike Zoom KD4 Thread **

This weekend was huge in shaking out the NBA Playoff picture and featured dominant performances from some of the game’s elite.  Key among those was Kevin Durant’s effort in Los Angeles on Saturday night, which has the Thunder on the verge of the Western Conference Finals after another comeback victory over Kobe’s cracking Lakers.  Durant noted in his ‘Sunday Conversation’ with ESPN that the road to coldheartedly crushing and staring down the crowd at Staples Center was one he nearly quit in the face of tremendous adversity, and it’s that kind of passion and tenacity that defines this colorway of his fourth Nike Basketball signature.  The Nike N7 Zoom KD IV is a symbol to native peoples in Oklahoma and all across North America that Nike is committed to putting their best products behind this initiative designed to promote active sporting lifestyles in this continent’s aboriginal communities.  Click through for more images and stick with Sneaker News as we approach the Friday, May 25th drop.  Photos: SC Forums

At the end of the 2012 NBA Season, Kevin Durant joined one of the most exclusive clubs in the league’s history – the NBA Scoring Title ‘Three-peat’ crew. Nike is celebrating this landmark of KD’s career with the Nike Zoom KD IV ‘Scoring Title’ PE, which features an ‘Entourage’-like Yellow/Blue colorway with a unique graphic on the upper and interior lining. The tongue features a triplet basketball/hoop logo with his scoring averages of the past three seasons with a nautical compass on the heel (perhaps a tribute to his start in Seattle). We’ll update you with more info regarding the design as well as possible release information (remember, the KD II and KD III ‘Scoring Title’editions released) so stick with Sneaker News for more updates because you know we’ll be the first to serve it up!
