they kind of are when it comes to signing YOUNG talent. Adidas has them beat. UA is on the come up. Yea, Nike has Lebron and Durant, but from a competiton standpoint letting Curry, Wall, Rose and Lillard (who was originally with Nike I believe) go else where can come back to bite them. Thats just to name a few. Next thing you know Kyrie Irving signs with FILA :bryan:...... just like Grant Hill. :leon:

It's kinda good to see the playing field level out a bit. Nike got a roster. UA's developing a roster, Adidas got a solid roster for the first time since T-Mac/KG/Arenas/Duncan

^Reebok just picked up Nerlens Noel, though. That might work out nice for them in the long run

Not the best move for Curry in my opinion. I was looking forward to buying his signature NIKE shoe one day. Even worse for Nike, though. They let another one slip away. Why are they not trying to pay these NBA stars?:mindblown:

I hope its not set in stone yet, but appears to be :damn:
@Blackthoughts would say.... Under Armor, by signing Curry, was the best business move of the year by an athlete and would cause Under Armor to become bigger than Nike in about three years and this move will propel Curry to be considered an MVP candidate this upcoming season.


:ufdup:Get your stan game up and turn everything into "the best in the league" type scenario for the Warriors.. What's wrong with you:childplease:

so we really standing shoe brands now, brehs. :childplease:

and a profile and financial view, this is a great move for Curry. He about to be the face of basketball for Under Armour.
Plus, for the record...that Nike Diddy/Megatron campaign is not good, and reeks of young marketers trying too hard.

Get it together, Nike. Y'all been slipping across the board a bit lately.

Best bball campaign I can remember from last year was that Gatorade Wade/Durant commercial (if y'all think that twitter beef isn't related to that, come on now).

in fairness, its hard as fukk to market football players. Especially quiet types like Calvin Johnson.

You need to be a Deion Sanders or Bo Jackson or superstar QB-type to get attention.

All I know is, Steph's gonna make a lot of kids buy their first pair of Under Armour shoes. I tried some on before and they weren't bad :ehh:

Let Some Kid Come To School With Steph Curry Under Armor Shoes On His Feet And He's Leaving With His UnderWEAR On His Head :laugh:

A lot of people are sleepin on Under Armour. The have good quality, performance and comfort....their Micro G cushioning :ohlawd:

I have own a few pairs of the Cam Newton highlight trainers and they performed way better than all my Nikes when I was doing my Insanity workouts. Plus they look great, very unique. Their apparel is very comfortable too. The area where UA has to improve is with their style. They are mostly miss on their shoe designs.
