BREAKING: Stephen Curry is a sneaker free agent

[qwasi]

perfect timing, nico is out of a job so they can get him for round 2. the universe speaks

 

[Hersh]

it reads like he trying to establish a brand completely.. like what Kobe was gon do before he passed and nike threw a bag at his wife

some Curry ONclouds's would be dope

 

[FaTaL]

Just go to Nike so I can finally get a pair of his shoes. He is the greatest but I ain’t wearing no UA shoes

It’s a shame he doesn’t have 1 iconic shoe.

No point in Nike signing Steph, he's near the end....especially since UA is going to be distributing Curry brand for the next 12 months or so.

At least when Kobe signed he had enough time for a whole second chapter to the point where you literally forget the Adidas era existed.

You make some points that are true.

But at this point Steph is a important brand to basketball and I'm sure every company wants to be associated with him even if he's almost done.

Adidas should do everything in their power to get him

Good maga under armor went under when orange Jesus came back. Couldn’t write a better script

Nike won’t want him and they already have had him wearing their jerseys for years.

He can get a better deal in China and they will make better looking shoes for him if the design even matters. He owns the Curry IP so it will be way easier to align with a Chinese company.

Nike will want him so they can say all the greats have been athletes under them, doesn't matter how late in the game it is. UA most likely won't even exist in a few years so his whole career is up for grabs

They'll give him the lifetime deal. Have him at the banquets, PR events, and talking to future prospects wearing Nike shyt like he was there the whole time

Plus, Nike needs a shot in the arm since shyt isn't selling anymore. This is one if there ever was, only question is does he want it.

I was at the Nike store by Barclays Center the other day and I'm looking at some running sneakers.

I saw a pair of running sneakers that cost $280. I didn't see a basketball sneaker there that topped that price. On top of that, the display kinda put the hooping sneakers off to the side so when you walk in, the first thing you see are running based shoes. The shoes that are lighter are more popular now. I'm sure people still rock basketball sneakers every once in a while, but I notice that people actually use them primarily for what they're designed for and that's performance.

I understand this but how did NB take over the world like that? I feel like the switch happened overnight.

Girls on IG, everyone at the gym, it’s all NB.

I feel like I just came out of a coma.

0% chance Nike does this. Chinese money is better.

Nike won’t be able to do anything with him for well over a year, who knows if UA and curry jointly own that logo and we don’t know what commitments curry and the brand have made for the 1-2 years (like future appearances).

Meanwhile a Chinese brand (and Chinese IP “laws”) could care less about the terms of his deal ending. They can push something out in by the end of the season that’s Chinese only and still eat.

It’s not like curry and UA do a clean break starting today. This thing will take time. If anything Nike can market him for “free” since he wears their jersey and shorts already so now they can go out of their way to show him (at least from the knees up) in promos.

Nike can also lace him when he becomes a pro golfer.

I was skeptical of those reports about Under Armour giving Curry a $1 billion lifetime deal. The company has a market cap of $1.9 billion.

He’s about to overcharge Nike for what they did to the Cold Crush, Pay us like you owe us for that 1 meeting you tried hoe us
