He's looking for other partners for the shoe deal still

"We've said from the beginning, we aren't looking for an endorsement deal," LaVar told ESPN. "We're looking for co-branding, a true partner. But they're not ready for that because they're not used to that model. But hey, the taxi industry wasn't ready for Uber, either.

"When Facebook bought Whatsapp for $19 billion, those guys weren't profitable," LaVar said.

Saw this shite coming from a mile away.
Although Lavar can EAD, I feel bad for his sons. They're stuck with that nutjob running their affairs.

comparing big baller brand to uber and whatsapp and the disruption those caused is quite the reach from lavar

It's a damn start-up t-shirt company... trying to strongarm massive apparel brands.

I think a facebook branded shoe would be the flop of the century

That kid really needs to tell his dad to frick off.

Somebody like converse or reebok should step in with a unique deal and a retro shoe for this chap and his annoying pappy

I am curious as to how Lonzo feels about this. Considering he's the only reason this entire family is relevant. He's the cash cow. And now his dad has basically fricked him out of millions of dollars and exposure with his big mouth and stupid idea.

You left out the best part where he says he already has the shoe prototype and he showed it to the companies.
Too bad the article didn't have a picture of it.

Well, all he has to do is tell pops to STFU up and those shoe companies will welcome him with open arms.
Posted on 4/28/17 at 10:10 am to Walking the Earth
Its probably a shite shoe bc he said he's had the prototype since the kids were born, so 20 years old

I dont really know how hot the facebook shoe would be in the hood. The curry's were a flop and they said as much in under armors earnings yesterday. I can't see the urban youth getting hyped over the new facebook lonzo ball's

If you value money more than family, you'll be pissed

At this point, I'm actually hoping the kid is a huge bust in the NBA just bc of his stupid fricking dad.

He's gone full Kanye.

I can respect the hustle.
Posted on 4/28/17 at 10:13 am to dabigfella
WIsh this guy would get throat cancer so they could fry him with radiation and render him incapable of speech
