    Adidas is still having nightmares about this.

    Whether things worked out the way they were supposed to or not, you can’t deny Nike made the Air Jordan line iconic. They saw what a star MJ was and had the vision to build everything about that shoe, from the design to the marketing, around his whole essence. Anyone who hasn’t seen the movie “Air” about Nike and MJ really should. It’s so inspiring.
  • One thing I really admire about Michael Jordan is that he isn't just a famous basketball player. He is a very intelligent and educated man and is a heck of a businessman. Kudos to MJ, who in my opinion is the GOAT.
  • JORDAN is the marketer. Shit it could have been fila. Didnt matter what shoe.

    MICHAEL JORDAN: If should never be in the dictionary cuz you never see the flipside of that. What a gem of a quote
  • @AVAtticus182
    A great quote from MJ in a video about why he didn't sign with Adidas. - "If should never be in the dictionary, cus you'll never see the flip side."

    I just watched “air”! Was a good movie. Grew up with MJ and just wish he was more visible with NBA today. That’s my wish, he’s a 🏀 legend!!!

    Jordan is so likable. I could listen to him talk forever. Such a good communicator.

    Like i always say...rejection sometimes is a blessing in disguise

    Adidas let Jordan walk, Then they didn't pay LeBron. Take this L

    Jordan: Well it's hard to say that 'what if?'. If should never be in the dictionary, because you never see the flip side of that. You sir, are damn right. Fantastic quote. Pure gold.

    MJ is so competitive man, even in marketing. You know he's just trying to be politically correct but deep down, he wants to shout BIGGEST MISTAKE ADIDAS!
  • @shadapakap
    I like how MJ always says "the game of basketball" instead of simply "basketball". "I'm going to the park today to play the game of basketball." "My hobbies are reading, gardening, and playing the game of basketball." "For me, the best sport to play is the game of basketball."
  • @poshko41
    I love how down to earth Mike is. There’s no fluff or trying to sound smarter than he is. He just worked his ass off and shot straight.
  • @JRgaming27
    MJ would have singlehandedly brought Adidas to bring the number one shoe brand in the world, and other athletes would have followed. An executive brought this up a few years ago, that not endorsing MJ was their biggest mistake.
  • @MC_Elie
    A very good lesson: NEVER let REJECTIONS affect you. Move on and RISE ABOVE IT. He's right, there is no "if", forget that past, just be thankful now.
  • @buddhabrew
    I just couldn't see the Adidas Air Jordan
  • @shenyaet7286
