The NBA Finals are a real series again. After two close wins in San Antonio, the Knicks fell flat in front of a well-paid and well-searched crowd, with Wemby, Dylan Harper, and the Spurs finally following through on a third chance to close out a game down the stretch. There was a lot of pressure for the first Finals game in MSG in more than a quarter-century, so even in the loss, Knicks star Jalen Brunson came correct with a new pair of Kobe PEs.

Knicks In… Kobe 6

The Jalen Brunson Nike Kobe 6 Protro Finals PE is the latest in a strong recent run of PEs for the undersized NYC star, following a hyper-local NYC release of his Eastern Conference Finals Kobe 5 Protro PE before the game. On the court, Brunson’s new pair shone under the bright lights in a full coat of teal with a Knicks-themed orange and blue gradient running across the midsole.

On the Mamba scale textured upper, the new PE splashes on a coat of light blue that borders on teal, similar to his Statue of Liberty PE that hit shelves last year. The rest of the pair mixes orange and blue to match Brunson’s Knicks jersey, with deep blue on the lateral Swoosh and orange on the medial, plus an orange-to-blue gradient moving from toe to heel on the midsole.
