Yeah I like what he is trying to do but man at least let the nikkas make it to the league first he is making them a target.

Yeah, I personally think he's making it hard for his kids. The media HATES confident black people in general let alone arrogant ones. So they are just going to place all that on his kids, blowing up any mistake they make, and be quiet on anything good.

Lol dudes was straight up hating and talking down on this dude for starting this business but as soon as the thread turned and posters brought up the "supporting our own" thing, everyone in the thread had to hit the :patrice: and start backtracking

Now y'all trying to say y'all "criticizing" him :mjlol:

How will this work assuming the kids end up in the NBA?
Will they have to refuse more conventional marketing deals (should they get offers) in order stay associated with BBB?
I think it just depends on what type of endorsements are offered sometimes they can be exclusive deals sometimes not probably another reason why he should have waited. It would have been gangsta if they signed for maybe like 3 years get paid then turn around and start the brand using the money from endorsements.

also, if the clothes being ugly as fukk is the biggest knock yall have on it then he's just fine

all it takes is hiring a good designer, lets say lonzo or lamelo end up becoming superstars.. the brand takes off regardless, if steph had kids wearing his ugly ass shoes all last year then anything is possible

When design isnt your thing...you just have to accept it and bring someone on who has a good eye.

The dad's idea is spot on though.
He sons have the name...they just need to create the product.

But none of them seem to be artist or designers...so they should bring on some people who have an eye for that shyt.

Or do a joint venture with an already established label...but instead of taking a check, you give them a percentage of the equity in YOUR company.

Knocking they're hustle is backwards though...you gotta think big in order to get big results.

If they pull it off...they can be an outlet for future athletes and end up caking on a major level.
