Maybe. But guys, just think about how many women walk around with $500 purses. Those designers are making bank. This product is not geared towards kids...geared toward sneakerheads, rappers, athletes, actors anyone affluently or illegally wealthy.

Wow, even combines have an NIT version.

I can't believe JBJ agreed to an "away" combine.

Sneakerheads aren't buying that.  Neither are rappers, other athletes (lmao), actors (wtf?), or anyone other than a member of the Ball family.

They're buying Nike, Adidas, and Under Armour.  Just like everyone else.

The shoes really aren't even that cool.. I probably wouldn't wear them if they were free.

Where did you see that? I've seen some outlets saying they just sold a few hundred the first day.

NBA combine starts today. Some of these kids are going to see all this talent around them and maybe think twice about keeping their names in this draft.

Haha it's hard to tell these days. Everyone's throwing stuff out there to get clicks in hope that they get something right.

ESPN2 is scheduled for coverage of the Combine from 3:00-7:00 ET today.

Not to derail the thread anymore, but y'all have to watch Lavar Ball play basketball.

DraftExpress measurements and analysis:

http://www.draftexpress.com/article/2017-nba-draft-combine-measurements-analysis-5927/

One other player posted a wingspan over 7'6 at this year's Combine, Indiana's Thomas Bryant, whose measurements line up very well with those taken by USA Basketball all the way back in 2014.  Standing 6'10.75 in shoes with a 247-pound frame, Bryant's measurements compare favorably to Knicks big man Kyle O'Quinn. - 

Indiana small forward OG Anunoby posted a similar wingspan differential standing 6'7.75 in shoes with a 7'2.25 wingspan.  Weighing in at 232 pounds, Anunoby could conceivably play some small ball power forward down the line, but for now is focused on getting back on the court after a mid-season knee injury. - e, Indiana's Thomas Bryant, whose measurements line up very well with those taken b

Only 2 components but TB isn't setting the Combine on fire.

Bryant records 33 inches on his max vertical, tied w/ 2 others for 27th among 42 combine participants who have tested in drill so far.

Thomas Bryant's lane agility time of 11.42 seconds currently ranks 17th among 38 combine participants who have tested in drill so far.

I dunno; I think that's quite good for a 6'10" big with a 7'6" wingspan. Especially surprised by the agility drill results!

Cody Zeller         37.5” vertical        10.82 lane agility

Noah Vonleh       37” vertical         Couldn’t find this stat

But Cody was a top five pick and an absolute freak at the combine.
Thomas is exceeding expectations IMO.

[Hoosierfan2017]

I'm kind of surprised Bryant weighed that much. I would've guessed him to be around 225-230.
