This loud mouth does not stop.They only sold little under 300 pair of shoes the first day. I did not see people waiting in line for the BBB shoes at any stores what a weak launch for a shoe.This guy knows nothing about business. According to CBS SPORTS lavar Ball stole the BBB logo from the Ohio State Wide Receivers coach. Looking for a lawsuit to follow. This guy will never even get anywhere near founder of NIKE Phil Knights net worth. It wouldn't be so bad if he keep his mouth shut and sold shoes behind the scenes.

As much as I cannot stand him..he is playing into all of us continually talking about him.

300 at 500$ a pop that 150k on first day


and for a shoe that bears the name of an unknown brand and a player who has not played a single nba game, i think thats huge

[eidolon]

I wonder where the shoe is made? thailand?

[YorkHunt]

Yes but supposedly they've spent millions on advertising so they 100k+ in a day doesnt matter.

Train wreck

[gauchojake]

I bought 2 pairs

[brooks85]

I thought it was funny because I'm an OSU fan and I had no idea about the logo.




you can bet lebron has gone to bed at night wishing he did what Ball is doing now. The amount of money Lebron left on the table by not being as creative as the Ball's is well over a billion; billions. He would have made less in the beginning but a hell of a lot more in the end.

Of course, it's very risky. You sign a shoe deal, it's guaranteed money so can't blame someone for taking the cash. But, point is you know lebron is thinking about it now. If he could completely own his Name instead of nike...


none of this means Ball will succeed but don't think anyone had any real doubts about lebron.

Lebron was an cant miss even in HS

Ball can be a huge flop

Dude did u even read the post I said the BBB Brand is facing a potential lawsuit not to mention what happens when The Better Business Bureau gets wind of the fact hes using BBB as his logo as well. $150k is such a joke. lebron James sold about $340,000,000 million of Nike shoes in about a year in 2014. Not even close. Truth be known Ball better keep his money and bank it or else go the route so many other superstar athletes go broke. Case in point watch the 30 for 30 documentary Broke and see how they live. Im not impressed with Ball.

NEW NAME FOR BBB

BANKRUPT BALLER BRAND

[ManOfValue]

Yes but supposedly they've spent millions on advertising so they 100k+ in a day doesnt matter.

Do they have millions to spend on advertising?

[Gonz312]

Do they have millions to spend on advertising?

I think he is referring the millions in free advertising they estimated because of all the sports networks talking about it non stop. Don't recall any articles about actual advertising put into the campaign.

And 150k is pennies to even the bottom offer a shoe company would of given Lonzo if his dad wasnt such a pos. But I guess since this is most likely all staying in pops pocket. Its might be worthwhile to him but worthless to a future lottery pick.

[manny24]

lot of pressure on kid none o Dad fuk him

[The Kraken]

I heard Lavar bought 103 pairs of the 8.5 shoes

What a clown

[kingdom]

Capitols44? will u become someone else tomorrow since they lost? You're giving away your true identity with the random use of "capitalized" posts.

[zam77]

Larva Ball dont give a fuk bout nut. Half of US talking about his son and family couldn't even name another college athlete for a free pair of zo2s. Most prob couldn't even tell you who lonzo play for. Lol!!!
