Offered here is an exceptional pair of Kobe Bryant game-worn Nike sneakers, conclusively photo matched by Real Game Used (RGU) to two pivotal contests during the 2009 NBA Western Conference Semifinals against the Houston Rockets. Accompanied by a Real Game Used (RGU) Photo Match Letter of Authenticity, these sneakers were worn by Bryant in Game 4 on May 10, 2009 and Game 6 on May 14, 2009, as the defending Western Conference Champion Los Angeles Lakers battled through one of the toughest playoff series of Kobe's championship career. Game 4 – May 10, 2009 Houston Rockets 99, Los Angeles Lakers 87 Playing on the road in Houston, Bryant finished with 15 points, 5 assists, 2 rebounds and 4 steals while logging 35 minutes. Although the Rockets evened the series at two games apiece, the contest represented a critical turning point that tested the Lakers' championship resolve. Game 6 – May 14, 2009 Houston Rockets 95, Los Angeles Lakers 80 Facing elimination pressure with the series advantage slipping away, Bryant delivered 32 points, 3 assists, 2 rebounds and 3 blocked shots, accounting for nearly half of the Lakers' offensive production despite the loss. His determined performance forced a decisive Game 7 back in Los Angeles, where the Lakers would respond with a dominant victory before continuing their march to the 2009 NBA Championship. The 2009 postseason stands among the defining playoff runs of Kobe Bryant's Hall of Fame career. Following the Rockets series, Bryant led the Lakers past the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals before capturing his fourth NBA championship by defeating the Orlando Magic in the NBA Finals, earning his first Finals MVP award in the process. Game-worn Kobe Bryant footwear from championship seasons represents some of the most coveted memorabilia in the hobby.
