Worth a Billy while in your 30s

must be nice :mjcry:


*cries in colicash*


:russ:

Does he have a deal to design for the apparel too or just sneakers? I love their gear but never been a fan of the footwear

He's got an entire line and this new deal puts him in as President of the brand.



"..Although much of the product over the past decade has been centered around sneakers, the Curry Brand offers footwear and apparel in the basketball, training and golf categories. The next phase of the partnership will focus on new and existing categories across a variety of sports, from basketball and golf to womenswear, youth and sportstyle product.."

People lol'd at your post, but this is low key a brilliant question.

Seems like milking the Dubs for $50M into salary cap luxury tax oblivion, causing you to have Anthony Lamb and Ty Jerome as teammates instead of OG Anunoby and Myles Turner.... just might be short-sighted in the grand scheme of Curry Goat Empireness.

:jbhmm:


He has post career nba plans too im sure. Like possibly buying an NBA team. Possibly building a nation outside of Babylon,where righteous black women and women can reside:respect:

I mean, if these shoe companies throw around all this money, why not take a lot less nba contract money to help your team stack all star players to remain champions year end? He can’t spend half that money in his entire life if he tried :manny:
People coming at your neck but this is basically what Lebron did in Miami and what Tom Brady was doing for years in NE
Interesting argument on whether or not it makes financial sense to take less money in salary for potentially more money in endorsements (based on assumed success). That might actually be way more money if the endorsement is equity vs salary taxed at high rate from the team.

Only thing is I'm not sure it makes sense for someone like Curry who already has rings and is famous but for someone like say....Bradley Beal it kind of makes sense. You just have to trust the organization to do the right thing re: team building which might be another can of worms

Reading is fundamental brehs:

"...Curry will make $473 million through the 2025-26 season with the Warriors, and the Under Armour deal could be worth even more. Plank said that the contract has the potential to be a lifetime deal if performance-based revenue targets are hit..."

$473 mill lifetime deal for a shoe contract for Steph Curry is a ripoff for him

Curry is worth more :hubie:

As already explained this just helps the owners pockets not the team

Honestly a nice feature when you choose a known brand (so they earn revenue) that doesn't have too many top-level, big name athletes to satisfy the same way.

Under Armour underachieved with Curry low key

His shoes should be more popular and mainstream

If the CEO is willing to offer him more than his NBA lifetime earnings, they're obviously selling that well to justify the money.

you and your circle and environment are a drop in the bucket to the rest of the planet. :yeshrug:

Not if the owner spends the same total money on other better players. Same payroll, better team. That's the context of the hypothetical.

I guess but they don't feel mainstream

Maybe younger kids are buying it?
