Agreed. But that could be just because he's not good at business. It doesn't have to mean he doesn't like women. That's my only point there.
you dont have to tell a business man myself that he isnt good at business And I dont care if he likes women or not, he is marketing a brand to the 1%. I just want to know why????!!

He could actually make some money (as much as i hate to say it, but he has gotten big because of his sons and its inevitable especially if Lonzo becomes a great player)
But he could have made such a stronger push if he wanted to make a lot of money, but he got greedy too soon like the bafoon he is.

THanks for letting me know your'e a businessman. You also completely whiffed on my point, which is obvious in the context of what we were talking about, Mr. Businessman.

I think people are hung up he put some shoes on the market. The Balls have had an enormous amount of exposure and the name Ball will be much more recognizable now. Some have said that many people have a negative opinion of him, but his gamble is it will all go away if his son lives up to his draft status hype. I agree with him. If Lonzo is awesome as a rookie he could burst on the scene as a very marketable product. He is going to land in a big market and potentially Los Angeles.

What do you think the market is for women's basketball gear? What is the market for white women of all ages for basketball gear (a demographic Kristine Leahy would be a memeber)?

I find the whole thing interesting. I am not a huge fan of the Balls, but I am curious to how it all works out.
