This seems like the most logical approach since BBB clearly wasn't ready to capitalize of Lonzo's popularity at that point. It would've had to have been a multi-year deal, but they coulda leveraged Lonzo's signing towards LaVar getting a closer at the shoe/apparel business so that when the deal was up they'd be ready to hit the ground running with BBB.

LaVar seems like they coli posters who believe Jordan brands would be just as lucrative if MJ turned down Phil Knight and started his own sneaker line. Business selling quality, in demand products fail everyday cuz of bad business practices :yeshrug:



This failed because of market research.
Way before zo played a ball game.
It is just people believed bloviated spokesman based pr over knowing an industry they were critical of.

then, not knowing components to how its creates profitability.

This is the annoying thing about what he is doing. I think there is a great niche market there for a FUBU-like idea. Athletic wear designed and worn by the athletes themselves. They could slowly acquire more athletes to represent the brand but other athletes would already wear it for free because they like it. A lot of people would love to ditch the corporate brands for something like this.

But they are priced out of the market and they're pushing shyt that real ballers wouldn't fukk with. It is clearly designed by a :flabbynsick: dude in his 50's who wants to dress like a carefree high schooler.

Marketing is a lot more than tricking a few idiots into buying overpriced garbage.

Only comparing their cult-like followers

Talking about this part:
Damn what did lavar do to you clowns?

Lavarr hasn't done anything. He is just a guy who talks alot. Trump on the other hand has said the racist shyt, ripped off his university students, didn't pay contractors, etc. They're both big personalities, but Trump is a shytty person. I don't get the hate for Lavarr ball, people can ignore him.

Lavar fukked his Bust son up. He could been SWIMMING IN NIKE $$$$$. All he gotta do is pose and rock they gear....:snoop:

Now, he's been exposed.
Lavar a straight loudmouth clown. BUT I definitely support him trying his own hand at branding a pair of sneakers.
The worse that can happen is he fails. Ok so what. .....all big companies started somewhere. You have to try

ESPN had the unboxing on them and for five hundred dollar skecher's subsidiary shoes.
I can not ever vouch.

Lavar thought sending off the other shoe companies jag'n off meeting was gonna show some passion. When all along the company was a vanity label attempt and fail subsidiary of skecher'a all along.
That is the only way to look at it given all that has transpired.

That bullshyt triple b bullshyt is a skecher's bait and switch vanity label at the end of the very day.
