What separates a great player from a championship player is this indefinable “killer instinct”, a contained dark side that surfaces at the appropriate time during which a player takes the form of his evil counterpart, ready to demolish a village in order to find an elusive treasure. Kobe Bryant has been a part of many do-or-die situations and as a result developed a fierce growling visage where he appears to be seething with anger but fueled by his desire. After sinking a clutch bucket, Kobe struts back on D with a protruded jaw, and his killer instinct is revealed. This new colorway of the Nike Zoom Kobe V emanates just that, a dark and cold exterior with no hints of color, similar to the Blackout Kobe V we previewed earlier this year. The swoosh, Kobe logo, and rear heel tab are metallic silver, but it’s the all-black colorway that achieves the darkness seen during Kobe’s on-court killing sprees. Check out the images after the jump and let us know if Kobe has the killer instinct to win his fifth championship. via kinstor.
