The real answer is being able to make a particular group of people A LOT of money. The hype can be exaggerated along the way when needed.

It's not apples and oranges, both are small market Midwestern (cold weather) teams. The caveat however is that LeBron was Cleveland's native son so the narrative was much stronger.

Jordan is not a generic last name.
Jordan derives from the Hebrew ירדן (Yarden), meaning "to descend" or "to flow down. Jordan is the 106th most common last name in America according to data from the 2000 U.S. census.Feb 3, 2019.

Google ftw

Well that's nice. But they do keep track of baby names and their popularity. Your cousin was an outlier. Before MJ blew up there weren't many people named Jordan. Afterwards that name became a lot more popular as more and more babies got that name.
I’m referring to last name. Go Google it, I didn’t guess

Ft. Stewart, Ga
Buzz
Social Media hype

Endorsements
Decent team

National TV games
Eventually winning


Pretty much.


Plus the league itself has to really get behind you.


It seemed like the league wanted to deep throat Luca’s ass down everyone’s jugular to get a great white hope thing going but he can’t carry a team to credibility yet so thats a no.




I’m thinking the next two “faces”’is going to be Zion and Mormont

No you didn't. The fact is that's not a generic name at 106th.
"The U.S. Census Bureau statistics tell us that there are at least 151,671 different last names and 5,163 different first names in common use in the United States.Feb 6, 2020

Ja going to a big city.

He's got the flair, attitude and winning mindset. Once he adds a decent 3 ball, the league is his.

Grizzlies do have the best jerseys right now, if he could win it all there,

:wow:
Never going to happen
You must be retarded
