Jimmy Butler signs multi year shoe deal with Li-Ning

[CodeBlaMeVi]

Nobody trying to rock kicks from any of those nikkas.

They’re selling those in China and Asia. A much bigger and emerging market.

Yimmy gotta be the biggest Dwade stan out there. Played with him for one season and was trying to get back with him his final year....then comes to Miami the next year and doesn’t even give other squads a meeting...and now is signing on the be the signature athlete on Wade’s trash ass Li nings


All off the strength of Wade. No one man should be having that much influence on your career

That seemed to work out for him, no

And I'm sure a big reason he went to Miami is because Wade told him about the culture Pat has created down there.

They never had signatures that's the other thing with Jordan. It took Westbrook damn near a decade to get a shoe.

all the signature shoes outside of MJ himself have been wack except for maybe once or twice with melo. but CP3's shoes were terrible. same goes for wade's. russ signature shoe is as well. I dunno about zion since he barely played.

Nope

Wade, Melo and CO3 had\have signature shoes.

Here’a Wade’s.

li ning obviously offering much more bread than brand jordan. only cat at brand jordan getting huge money outside of is zion and

they have lost wade, kawhi, and now jimmy over the past few years. two of those dudes are 1st ballot HOF'ers, which just shows u JB must be being cheap.

Its the JORDAN brand. Players know their signature is going to be trash and no one will be checking for it. There are team jordan shoes that sold better that Westbrook's stuff.

These guys want to be all time great players with there own stamp on the game. It looks crazy having a shoe with a stamp of another player on it.

Well none of the new blood. All of them were drafted 03-05.

Wade probably pulled a few favors to get him that deal.

What you mean?

Like, suckin dikks!?!

 

[Peter Popoff]

Will those sneakers love me long time?

 

[Miggs]

They also gave Van Vleet a shoe deal....

exactly. this is chess, not checkers. its painfully obvious that jordan brand gets athletes based on MJ's name recognition. but these other companies in china are putting up that bread. li ning, anta, and even new balance over here in the states.

 

[The_Third_Man]

it's funny how silent the twitter "warriors" about this. go figure

 

[beenz]

How much money Li Ning got?

when wade joined them in 2012, they offered him $10M annually.

I'm sure jimmy is getting an 8 figure annual contract from them as well.
