It’s about to get serious on the NBA hardwood as the regular season stretch run will determine the final seeding for the postseason which begins in just under two weeks. Teams are jockeying for position and then their entire quest begins anew when the 2011 NBA Playoffs begin and among the key storylines is how far we’ll see the Miami Heat advance. That’s when we’ll learn how ridiculous (or spot-on) the Heatles’ pre-season celebration really was and King James will break out the Nike LeBron 8 P.S. to aide his quest for that elusive first ring. And you know LeBron raises his game come playoff time but just in case you needed a reminder, check out the box for the LeBron 8 Postseason. This carton features a decidedly more intense super-closeup of LBJ’s mug with a similarly macro shot of a lion’s roar gracing the inner sidewall. Click through for more shots, let us know how these compare to the LeBron 8 and V2 ‘lion head’ boxes and stick with Sneaker News for word on any possible special packaging to come. via LRJ23.
