Big Baller Brand was at the top at one point... So what happened? Instagram- / matthew_eckstein Snapchat- / matthewlbg5 Without God I am nothing! LetsBeGreat! John 13:7. Rip Dad.
Great idea that was poorly executed. They needed to slow down and work on testing & development of the shoe. Very expensive to do, but it was critical that the 1st shoe was ready for prime time. He would have done better to partnering with a major manufacturer until they mastered the business.
Yeah it was a great idea to come in the league with your own brand. It never had a chance though because of the name. Nobody around him could tell him?
@@justmyopinion8395 the name was corny. Has a 90’s vibe, but could have worked if the shoe was right and they landed some more endorsements. I actually like the style of the first shoe, but it had poor construction. I think LaMelo designed some wild cool shoes for BBB. This really could have worked and completely changed the game.
💯. Definitely had a chance. The reality is though, with the kind of money the bros were/are making, better to diversify and invest in non retail portfolio. Starting a retail line is like opening a restaurant, juice not worth the squeeze unless design is your passion, which it wasn’t for them.
"At one point, they was the biggest thing out there" wtf lol. Why does every CZcamsr that makes videos like this sound like they talk like that kid in class who doesn't know how to read
I bet the players in the locker room were laughing at Lonzo’s shoes. I wouldn’t accept these $495 shoes for free. I can only imagine how embarrassing it is to be seen in public wearing these.
Lonzo turned down the nike rookie contract for 16 million 4 years. Got robbed 1.5 million. He will never get a second chance. Role players don't get contracts.
Bruh I dont agree with you about the show "not putting up great numbers". Plus Zo shoes that kept ripping were prototypes. If you watch a interview that thief talks about it.
Lavar was on Ball In the Family show last Sunday's episode (February 1, 2020) telling Zo they all need to pool their money together and keep BBB going. Zo looked at him like he was crazy. I"m hoping Melo goes his own way. Lavar really was mean spirited to his youngest kid on the JBA, JBA USA, and Ball In the Family reality shows. Melo grown now. I hope he just pays Jermaine Jackson to be his manager and trainer and signs with some other shoe company. As many peole have said time and time again, Lavar want his kids money. It's proof off last week's Ball In the Family episode. I think Lavar is spending the kids money and keeping his stashed. Nobody in their right mind buys a $50,000 chandelier with BBB on it. Then all of a sudden not only are bill collectors claiming Lavar did not pay them; some JBA players saying they were unpaid, customers saying they never received their BBB merchandise, AND $1.5 million of Zo money just mysteriously "disappears". Some of it may be Alan Foster; but I am very suspicious that Lavar had his hand in the 'cookie jar', so to speak. That's why I really wish Melo goes his own way. I'd like to see the kid stay happy as he enters the NBA...
BBB had no chance from the start because of the name. They probably tried to tell Lavar it was corny AF but he wouldn’t listen.
That part
The only thing I remember was people buying shirts as they wanted to commemorate how this was gonna crash and burn. All the clout was from trolls.

No Research and development
If he sold the stuff at the same price as Nike or similar it could have worked

id rather burn the $500 than spend it on BBB shoes.
Gotta support blk owned business
Not me if it prices its products insultingly high.
People don't like the video for whatever reason, but I've been loving the content lately! 👏
By the like/dislike ratio people do like it wtf u on about ?
Cos they crazed blmm sjweee
it's back and running
You speaking on what we already know.
This was an extremely hard listen.. I don't know if you have some type of condition so if so please ignore what I'm about to say..
I got black I got blue what you want?
Shut up
Lavar ruined the image of the company by trolling too much. Simple. Hoopers didn’t wanna get clowned on the court so no one wants them.
Let’s be great
He sounds like Hank hill ...... Good vid 👍
Damn this was two years ago
I bet the players in the locker room were laughing at Lonzo’s shoes.

Oh yeah I almost forgot about them 😂😂😭
That guy sucker punched the sneaker duds and caught it on the backslide.
Nice
Payless shoes!
wheres the 1mil subs???????

There shoes are ugly AF! I would give $5 on any pair of them shoes.
The nba made him cover up his tattoo
Horrible logo, no style, looks like cheap shit with exaggerated prices.
Smh

🤣🤣

乙辛
Big baller but wipes
First
Lavar help manifest his sons into the public eye, I have to respect that!
and he covered up his tattoo bc of the nba's rules
Of course. You can't endorse another shoe on the nba's platform and not pay them?????
🐒🐵🐒🐵🐒
U say it’s not looking good for Lavar but he’s a millionaire 😂, money over fame
Nah... Integrity over everything. LaVar is a clown
I am Groot! Stfu 🤦🏽♂️

@@theredgamer8790 Nah... not gonna happen
@@christinejones7902 Truth.
Big baller brand is still winning. Make a video about how their dad is still going strong and has a big selection of merchandise on their site.
Lol 😂
awful merch lol, selling ugly tees for $50 c'mon now
It is terrible, actually remember a while ago they started giving Jersey's to youth teams, then it disappeared again.
Lonzo turned down the Nike rookie contract 4 years 16 million. Know he upset
