Sometimes I really don't know what you guys are talking about. Vince didn't perform up to par and so they cancelled his line. Simple as that. Hedidn't have the leader/champion persona. Haven't any of you noticed that Lebron's shoes are the first signature line since Michael Jordan to gobeyond 5 shoes?? Why is that? Because he continues to perform at the highest level. Pippen's shoes stopped at 5! Penny's stopped at 5 too. Hisshoes even continued even after he got injured. The athletes sign a 5 shoe deal, and if they perform at a high level, the contract gets renewed. Nike waitedtoo long to give Pippen his own shoe. He should have had his own line when Chicago started their first Championship run. He faded when he got to Huston, andthe Blazers, and so did his shoe line. It's that simple. If it was about the performance of the shox with VC, they would have just changed thetechnology, like they did with Lebron going from Flightposite material to regular leather. The only way Lebron's shoes stop is if he signs with anothercompany, or if he falls off dramatically, and I doubt neither will happen. Kobe will be the next Nike athlete to go beyond 5 shoes. Watch. Kevin Durantbetter not get injured. He better get in the weight room.
