so they gettin "pimped" by getting paid to wear free shyt and getting royalties on shoes they didn't think up, design, manufacture, sell, etc. :mjlol:

don't out think yourself

5% is industry standard :dahell: OP what the fuk are you saying.

All the athletes are doing is just getting on a commercial which they are being paid to do plus getting a royalty. Nike bears all the risks and cost.

Let's be real now, Jordan My dude shoes sells tons of money out here but he gets like 5% royalties if that. LeBron even less
Kanye even lefted because Nike were like we ain't paying you Nicca just be happy you get some involvement. And mvp mammas boy durant nearly went to under armour.


Nike is playing with these brothers income and bumping badly

Thoughts

I'm sure nike jerks a lot of dude's, but I HIGHLY HIGHLY doubt :mjpls: is one of them.

same goes for lebron.

Jordan ain't payed like that. Jordans are a billion dollar industry my man makes like under 40 million each year from its got the niccas logo on it and everything. The dude popped the brand off. Don't lie to yourself you know it weren't a 50/50 split which it should of been.

Black people dont understand that either. Michael Jordan does not even own the Jordan brand; the brother does not even own the jumpman logo and the jumpman logo is a picture of him.

That's why the white high up's hated michael jackson because he was the smartest black entertainer because he actually bought the beatles music catalog and merged with song (sony/atv).

Till this day people still think michael was murdered because he outsmarted those white fukks including paul mccartney

OK, say :mjpls: is paid like $40M annually from nike.

what is he doing? he doesn't do commercials. he doesn't play bball in the shoes. he doesnt' put up his own money to market or manufacture the shoes. typically, in business, if you want a lion's share of the reward, then you're gonna have to put up some of your own capital.

basically, nike is taking all the risk, and jordan is getting rewarded off his name :yeshrug:

Pimpin? You sure about that? :mindblown:

Under Armor offered Kevin Durant 10yr $265-285 million.... He did not leave because Nike matched it

So if sneaker companies are "pimping" players for $26-28m a year to do nothing, what are owners doing to players who can't even get paid that much with the new CBA?

That's what Jordan should of done now he getting bumped like an Indian in a.factory producing these shoes wages. Jordan name was already out there it wasn't such a massive business risk. Instead of him signing a budget contract he should of been doing it himself. They don't even use the nike tick there was no reason to be getting pimped like that that's all
