    He Said He Had The Tat For About 5 or 6 Years. And They Didnt See When They Signed Him So Reebok Needs To Fall Back.

    Reebok IS being lame about this. It’s a good tat though.

    It’s def the “retired” Jordan jumpman! Kinda like skinny or fat Elvis!?!?

  9. he’s try n 2 promote himself 4 a sneaker contract. only dope players are on air jordan. Carmelo Anthony, chris paul, Ray allen, Joe johnson. do i need 2 keep goin or u get dat point

  10. Damn Reebok always makes out bad in these types of situations. If they knew he had the tat when they signed him they should have had something in his contract about it then. Same thing with Kid Cudi they should have researched and found out that he liked J’s met with him before the event and asked what Reebok’s he would wear. If Cudi said none, then don’t have him perform at your party it’s that simple. It’s kind of sad because I actually still like some Reeboks but they clearly don’t handle these types of situations well.

    i think reebok isn’t in any position to complain about a tattoo. especially since they keep losing endorsements. they lost baron davis, rajon rondo, and iversons shoes really ain’t sellin too good. they’ll probably get bought out, because their designers need to find a new profession.

    Yo Gortat def gets my support for sayin F U to reebok. nowadays reebok needs all the exposure it can get so this story prolly helps them if anything. reebok you need to hire somebetter shoe designers re invent yourself or go back to some classic shoes. u wack
