Lavar is a con artist. Lonzo says nothing because he is not only a weak person, but he's in on it. Lonzo is fully invested in this crap, himself. Only his father's lack of subtlety bothers him.

The con is going to be partnerships with people doing illegal shyt. I see money laundering, drug pushing and human trafficking in the future if they pull this off.

Just don't let Lonzo have a Ricky Williams career ending injury.
why do you worry so much calling him a con and shyt? You are not forced to buy any of his products at all, let a nikka cook, there will be people buying that shyt

why you gotta mention illegal shyt? the blacker the skin the more illegal business look like to you? :mjpls:

That's why he put the price so ridiculous so people would talk about it ..watch them release a cheaper version after
of course they will release. A lot of stores do the trick right before the sales where they put unreal old price like shyt was 500$ and now you can buy it for 100$ and people be like :ohhh: imma be like nelly and cop a two pairs :russ:

Dummy. You can't just create unlimited shoes in a production run. They chose a solid number that allows them to ensure the quality is there and to determine logistics. That's good business so yo don't immediately find yourself in the deep end of some bullshyt.

Your internal QA and logistical and inventory management system is supposed to be worked
out prior to making a product available. Can you not comprehend how much non value added waste BBB is creating by playing this by ear?

i respect what lavar is doing but it's unfortunate that militants are hijacking his vision to turn it into something that he never said it was about.

lavar never said he was doing big baller brand for black people, he's just a dad who wants to capitalize on his kids success and make sure he and his kids are the only beneficiary of it. and that's commendable.

leave the "support black businesses" talking points or calling people c00ns who don't support it shyt out of it.

buy the shyt because you like the shyt or you like lavar or lonzo, because i have a feeling lavar gonna do some shyt down the line to show you dudes he aint as "pro-black" as yall think he is.
Funny thing with bold is that's damn near everybody even the ones doing it for black people but some are so stupid they get tricked by the most basic stuff. Caring for yourself and family is first before any black community stuff regardless but some don't get it. Buy black is a catchy phrase that hooks stupid people because as I've said before if your shyt is legit and known folks will cop. I copped Starbury Ben Wallace stuff just to ride with BW when he was on the Bulls. I copped a AACA sweatsuit when they came back cause I liked them when I was younger and was hyped they brought them back out. I didn't need to be told to "buy black" cause if your shyt legit I'm on it and so are others. I really dislike that term and what it stands for to me.

It's a low risk business model and that is extremely smart for a start up. Only produce what gets ordered. Sure it will turn some off but it won't turn everyone off and puts him in position with very little risk to take a big loss...

It's not low risk when u consider what he turned down from Nike, UA, Adidas, everyone else.

It's a super high risk attempt and he turned down guaranteed millions, when he doesn't even have his ducks in a row yet. Product is not available.

It says shoes aren't available until
Nov 24th. That's crazy. You can't do that when ur in a shark market.
