Happy Easter young brother.Adidas went with the Tmac wave
Nike is incompetent, they dropped Kanye and he made another company and became a m billionaire.
Means nothing when Nike drops you.
They put the entire life and history into LeBron till his family legacy dies and still can’t get him in the finals to represent.
JB emerged from Nike and has all the up and coming best players (Tatum Zion Luka)
Kobe shoes prolly went up after his death but they was already high.
Kobe Elite > Lebron Elite
Stick to talking about Skechers and Hoka's grandpa
His own son wasn't playing in his kicks until he changed them with the 20
Nike and the estate of Kobe Bryant did not renew their contract last week—ending a nearly two-decade relationship between the Los Angeles Lakers icon and sportswear giant—and weak sales of performance basketball shoes no doubt played a role. “Kobe was a big deal in China but was never a big force in footwear in the U.S.,” Powell said.
Facts>>>>>> fanboy revisionist bullshit
Notice you brought receipts and the stans brought emotion and speculation.
The shooting guards fanbases are made up of liars. Now they are lying and saying Bean's shoes did numbers when a simple Google search states the contrary. Let them tell it, Kobe was this box office when he was alive as a Laker, when the reality is he never was. Bron's stardom and tenure as a league face AS A LAKER dwarfs Kobe. And when he gets that 3 year supermax this off season it'll be even more evident.
Somebody's missing.
I'm pretty sure JB doesn't allow its players to wear retros anymore.
Bam and Jaquez are both jordan but they never wear retros
That's the guys under Jordan Brand. Other players can and have worn retros. They just aren't comfortable to play in and it's not 2000 anymore.
There's also nothing stopping players from wearing the new Jordans but nobody does, not even fans. The guys who endorse with him don't sell shoes like that. Nobody is rushing to buy Lukas, Zions, or Russell Westbrooks. And most people don't even know who's on his roster. He mainly promotes himself and his own shoes retro re releases. P Diddy of shoe lines.
Shits kinda sad actually man.. The love and blind devotion these grown men have to guy who not only didnt love them but didnt love his got dam parents is some shameful shit.Notice you brought receipts and the stans brought emotion and speculation.
What about the other 500 players in the league?

Matt Powell is a 60 something year old white man who knows nothing about what people are actually wearing.
Kobe's have always been preferred for it's intended purpose, basketball. So of course more of those Nike Monarch's that you wear are being sold than a basketball sneaker. The same can be said for Lebron, and he has a lifetime contract.
You mean the ones that are under contract with other companies
What other companies do you speak of? Nike has 90% market share. Its ok to say players just arent wearing Jordans to play in. They are a shit performance shoe. No idea why you're intent on pushing back on this.
Thank god their popularity off the court has started to decline as well. Hate to see you when you have to defend that hard truth soon.
All the critics love you in New York.
He got traded to the Mavs in Jrue trade, then this idiot, in Dallas started wearing Jayson Tatum's sneakers when Luka is also a Jordan athlete. So they sent Grant to the Jazz of the East.
Damn, the trolling is thick as Gumbo in this thread.

Jordan has far less athletes under contract
Yous a bitch.
No idea what your point is. Enjoy your Easter tho.

They don't have 90%
Adidas has plenty of players under contract
Plus Under Armour and New Balance
In addition to the Chinese companies like Anta and LiNing
and do you actually own Jordan's? I do old muthafucka. I have the 30-38. Zion's, Tatum's.
Stop speaking on shit you don't know about
Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant both being better at basketball than LeBron James is the greatest lie ever told in sports history. Sad thing is, their stans are still willing to keep the lie going.
Ok.. 75%.. does that really change the underlying point?
This guy thinks hes a expert on the business aspect and can dispute actual statistical data because he still buys air jordan tennis shoes..
The muthafuckin best ever.

What Lebron's do you have
What makes these wins so exciting is knowing Kobe stans are bitter and can't openly celebrate them on this board. We all know they see the greatness, but they still gotta pretend that they don't and maybe if they don't say nothing, nobody will notice old man Bron is already one of the greatest Lakers ever and more efficient than their hero was.
Bring on the the 3 year extension Rob and Jeanie. Similar threads
