In the midst of another high-octane scoring year in the NBA, Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant is starting to find his voice in the league. About an altercation he had with Heat forward Chris Bosh in a recent game, Durant said "I am a quiet guy, laid-back guy, but I'm not going to let nobody talk trash to me. He's on a good team now so he thinks he can talk a little bit. There are a lot of fake tough guys in this league and he's one of them." Stinging words from the usually jovial Durant.
Perhaps the perfect shoe to release for the new 'all-business' side of KD is this black on black colorway of his Nike signature shoe, the Zoom KD III. Sporting a black leather upper, the shoe switches things up with the use of tight knit mesh for the side panels. The tongue, inner liner and sole are also done in black, while dark grey offers a little color contrast on the Flywire panel, Swoosh border and KD logo.
The "Blackout" Zoom KD III is currently available to purchase from retailers like Eastbay.
