I dont think Lonzo would have gotten a tattoo if he wasn't all in either, blaming LaVar for forcing him is stupid but at this point he has moved on and I wish LaVar was done too. This relaunch with Gelo only wont really work. They had a good idea but executed poorly imo

People really hate when people want to build their own brand :mjlol:
Not even remotely true. But in this case, people thought Lonzo was giving up a lot of guaranteed money for his inexperienced dad’s dream and that Lonzo would lose his own money in all of this.

And that’s exactly what happened. Who would have guessed?

The next episode is Sunday. Melo didn’t go to the pop up shop they were supposed to have in Australia

Just Win Baby
just went to the new site
first thing I noticed was no signs of Lonzo or Melo
but there's giant pics of Gelo
the shoes are still too expensive($190) but they not $495 like before

That's cause Zo and Melo not associated with the brand :mjlol:

Melo might be able to snag a decent contract from Nike/Adidas, depending on the draft

It’s an investment. Not all investments work out tho, and that comes with the risk. Y’all basically don’t want nikkas to take risks or gamble just to keep making the popular and rich companies more popular and rich

What I can say from having done some work in these spaces is a lot of the setups are definitely coached if not completely scripted. There are times where I have been told or folks I work with have been told to walk or stand a particular way, give a particular expression or say a particular thing. What’s most common is they’ll pitch a theme or convo or situation that they tell all people on camera to react naturally to and discuss as if they’re behaving as they would without cameras—but to stay on the topic the producers have given.

The thing is, rich people dont gamble with their own money. That way if it doesnt pay off they dont end up out on the street. You dont use your son's first NBA contract as you own personal bank account to try and live your dream. Let that dude get secure first, then branch out.
