D.Rose, that you brah?
I don't really like Chang's designs, but to each his own. And I agree, compared to the best in the game, Jason can't compete. But his Lebron have been decent.
OP, you're reaching with some of those comparisons.
You are right to a certain extent about current Nike Basketball models being highly derivative of prior ones but there may be other factors imposed on the designers. These could include cost saving measures by running the same materials across the board (Flywire, Hyperfuse) and the same tooling so that the Chinese factories don't have to set up production/assembly lines for each sneaker model.
Petrie didn't design the Lebron 6
Yes you all do. Go into any LeBron thread and you'll see how he's a genius and can't do any wrong to he has another classic. Even when he took a shot at Rose, you had people cosigning him. He's reached god status in this part of the forum and unless you can put up with the stans, its not worth saying anything negative.Brah no one hypes up Petrie. We just think he is a decent designer. Granted he has designed some straight up garbage, and I do think it is time to give the Lebron line to a new designer, but he is still decent
+1This seems like a bit of a stretch...
This x 10I guess NT is giving Wale a break and going after Petrie now.
every one of your comparisons were a failure.OP you're trying way too hard
Not really, but I am certain that his rectum is still pretty much stretched out of shape from all the bad publicity he has received.
Hasn't been around tweeting and pouting lately, now has he?
I dont know if this falls on petrie or Lebron and his entrourage. TInker once stated that he didnt like working with bron bron because him and his friends wanted to put all this stuff in the shoe and they could never work anything out. They probably all wanted to use parts of classic shoes and mesh them together which seems like Lebrons have always been.
PS. I have no respect for petrie after the rose comments...Hows petrie gonna feel when bron bron tears his acl and has no more shoes to design and is out of a job?
Also his Lebron designs make for heavy bricks. Its the shoe of the best player on Earth but no for everyone. People buy the shoe for Lebron & its fancy limited colorways and NOT the designer
Petrie had nothing to do with the 6's (Although I do agree that it's a shame that a Bron sig was wasted on a AF1 Rehash, especially when the prototypes that leaked, the Lebron Zoom Power 6 or something like that were so dope), and you reaching heavy on the Barkley/LBJ8 Comparison
The 9's and 10's can be argued but hell, the shoes are dope at the end of the day and you don't know what Bron requests as far as what he wants his shoes to look like. Like someone mentioned he wanted the VII's to be similar to the XI's. How is that Petrie's fault?
every one of your comparisons were a failure.
Petrie should stay as Lebrons designer, but they should limit some of Lebrons "power" and deciding which colors are released and which are for his friends and family.
You want to talk about a new designer? Get Melo a new designer. Great player, but his shoes have sucked since day 1.
Sooooooooooooo you're saying they all look like basketball shoes?
