LeBron laces up unreleased colorway with Heat one win away from Finals.

words // Brandon Richard

LeBron James and the Miami Heat are one win away from advancing to their fourth-straight NBA Finals. To put that in historical context, they'd be the first team to accomplish the feat since the Boston Celtics from 1984-1987. That includes Jordan's Bulls, Shaq and Kobe's Lakers and Duncan's Spurs. Obviously, the main goal is to three-peat, but playing for the Larry O'Brien Trophy for the fourth year in a row would be a remarkable first step.

Moments ago, the NBA shared this video of LeBron James arriving to Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Instagram. With a closer look, you'll notice he's making his walk through the tunnel in the 'Watch the Throne' Nike LeBron 11, a pair of kicks you'd probably be wearing if you were in the mood for a celebration.

The Heat and Indiana Pacers tip off tonight at 8:30 p.m. EST. We'll update this post with photos of LeBron's kicks as they become available.
