Jordan Brand athlete Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat enter Game 3 of the 2011 NBA Finals tied one game a piece, and losing Home Court advantage means that Agent D3 needs to pull out a victory in Dallas. A Game 3 victory would be a perfect way to bounce back and regain control, and Wade will make that attempt tonight while wearing this new PE colorway of the Jordan Fly Wade. In fact, there are actually two different versions; both feature the blazing Red/White upper, but one version features a full white midsole while the other uses the vibrant Red on the midsole, which also features a Taxi Yellow trim. These Jordan Fly Wade NBA Finals PE colorways won’t hit retail, so check out the detailed images below and look out for them tomorrow during Game 3 of the 2011 NBA Finals.

When your star player – a shooter for that matter – tears a tendon on one of his fingers, you might as well wave the white flag and call it a series, no? The Dallas Mavericks,down 15 with just over 6 minutes of play remaining, stormed back in the fourth quarter with a 20-2 run using timely buckets and ironclad defense. Led by Dirk Nowitzki, who claimed the torn tendon didn’t bother him, scored Dallas’ final nine points; a heady fast break lay-up, a tie-breaking three-pointer with Jordan-esque clutchness, and a lefty lay-up thanks to Chris Bosh’s overzealous defense of the fadeaway sealed the deal and sent the series back to Texas with all the momentum on the Mavericks’ side. For Game 2 not much changed in terms of sneakers; Dirk did his thing with the Nike Hyperdunk 2010 and Jason Terry rocked the Zig Slash (and gave ‘em away to a lucky fan after the game). On Miami’s side, LeBron and Wade rocked their respective PEs of the LeBron 8 P.S. and Jordan Fly Wade, and Mike Bibby wore the Air Jordan 2011 Quick Fuse for the second straight game. With the series guaranteed to go at least five games, you know Sneaker News will keep you on top of all of the NBA Feet action, so check out the Game 2 recap after the jump! via Yahoo!.

In 2006, the Mavericks took Game 1. In 2011, the script was flipped. Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, and Chris Bosh navigated the Miami Heat to a Game 1 victory on Tuesday night, breaking away in the fourth quarter after a tight 40 minutes of play. LeBron James (LeBron 8 PS Home PE) and Dwyane Wade (Jordan Fly Wade Home PE) combined for 46 points, 19 rebounds, and 11 assists, capping off a great duet with an awe-inspiring alley-oop at the end of the game. Mike Bibby, who has quietly been debuting many Jordan Brand footwear releases, wore a White/Red PE colorway of the Air Jordan 2011 Quick Fuse. Dirk Nowitzki led all scorers 27 points while wearing the Nike Hyperdunk 2010 PE, and Shawn Marion provided great support while wearing the Air Max Fly By.

One thing we know for certain after Thursday night is that taking your talents to South Beach is a winning proposition. LeBron James left his home to come to Miami with Dwyane Wade and now that they’re headed to the NBA Finals, maybe King James owes D-Wade some thanks for helping him get back to the top of the mountain. Perhaps a borrowed colorway would do nicely? Check out these new images of the Jordan Fly Wade ‘South Beach’, a colorway something like the inverse of the mega-hit ‘South Beach’ LeBron 8 that adds art deco accents to a black/white base. The release date has still yet to be announced, but it could be perfectly timed should the Heat go on to win the NBA Championship, and either way, you can see more images when you click on the jump below. via in52

On July 8th, 2010, LeBron James made a public announcement on ESPN, wearing a red and white checkered shirt and some Nike Toki Mids, to make known his decision – one that would change the NBA horizon for the next decade. What resulted was a public backlash, labeling the player who was once a king as a Judas – a traitorous individual who would forsake his people without looking back. LeBron James has made it clear time and time again that his ‘decision’ was based on professional success, and recently apologized for the way the whole ordeal transpired, but in the end, what matters is that the decision was the right one, because LeBron James is back in the NBA Finals, joining his teammates Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.
The road to the Finals was not an easy one; constantly under the eye of public scrutiny, the Miami Heat were not the record-breaking juggernaut everyone assumed they would be, as they managed to win an impressive yet underwhelming 58 regular season wins, a far cry from the 72 wins set by the Chicago Bulls in the ’95-’96 season. Still, the Miami Heat, who captured the number-2 seed in the Eastern Conference, steamrolled through the Playoffs and won when it truly mattered (up to this point), and a rematch of the 2006 Finals is now set. For this fifth and final game of the ECF, LeBron James debuted an all-new PE colorway of the Nike LeBron 8 PS, a two-toned black and red colorway that matched the Heat’s away uniform. Dwyane Wade wore the ‘Away’ PE of the Jordan Fly Wade, and Mike Miller switched over to the Zoom KD III ‘Blackout’. The 2011 NBA Finals are now set, so check out the Game 5 recap below and stick with Sneaker News for NBA Feet coverage of the Finals. via Yahoo!.

After losing the opening game of the series, the Miami Heat have been scorching hot and rolling on all cylinders, receiving elite-level contribution from each of the Big Three when needed the most. Wade, LeBron, and Bosh are proving that three superstars can co-exist, because they’re just one win away from an NBA Finals appearance – Miami’s first since winning the title in 2006. LeBron James once again sported the LeBron 8 P.S. Home PE, which features a red midsole and yellow speckling, and Dwyane Wade wore his own Home PE of the Jordan Fly Wade. Mike Miller, who provided some clutch buckets down the stretch, wore the Air Max 360 BB Low in white. Chicago had a chance at victory, but Derrick Rose fell short on two key last-second jumpers as he was guarded heavily by LeBron James. Rose wore the adidas adiRose 1.5 (no Crazy Light?) and Carlos Boozer wore the White/Black/Red PE of the Hyperdunk 2010 with colorblocking reminscent of the Nike Air Force 1 ‘Scarface’ that released half a decade ago. We’ve got a full recap of Game 4 below so take a look and let us know if you think Miami will close it out in Game 5. via Yahoo!.

It was Game 3 action over the past weekend, as both Conference Finals series switched venues to Oklahoma City and Miami. Both series were tied up at 1-1 heading into Game 3, giving two teams to either regain Home Court advantage or steal it away. Starting with the OKC/DAL series, the Mavericks, led once again by Dirk Nowitzki, managed to pull off a Road victory to avenge their Game 2 loss. A look at the kicks showed Kevin Durant wearing the Zoom KD III ‘Scoring Title’ Home PE for a portion of the game, Jason Terry in his Reebok Zig Slash PE, and Shawn Marion in the Air Max Fly By. Moving down South, Chris Bosh poured in 34 points to lead the Big Three to a Game 3 win. LeBron James, who contributed 22 points of his own, wore a PE colorway of the LeBron 8 P.S., which featured a white upper, a red midsole, and a yellow trim. Dwyane Wade wore the Jordan Fly Wade Home PE, Mike Bibby wore a new White/Red version of the Jordan Alpha 3 Percent, and Mike Miller wore the Air Max 360 BB Low.
