    Kobe Bryant is drawing closer to choosing his next shoe comp

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">According to industry insiders, Kobe Bryant is drawing closer to choosing his next shoe company after half a season splitting his footwear primarily between Nike and Reebok, along with the occasional Converse and Fila. Nike and Reebok have long been known as the front-runners. The lure of Reebok, which does not have the NBA cache that Nike does but might allow Bryant more control, might prove persuasive. Still, there are those who believe Bryant, who formerly was with Adidas, would not be the lead NBA athlete for Reebok, which already has Allen Iverson, Baron Davis, Steve Francis and Kenyon Martin, among others.</div>

    I agree with attikus on that 1. I just buy the best shoe. Not the 1 sponsored by an NBA player! Plus, those shoes r always 200 bucks or sumthin. I ain't got that money fo shoes! I don't care who he signs with. He should be the lead of the company though.

    Yea, I don't understand why people give LeBron so much money. He hasn't even played yet for christs sake.

    I'm not sure Kobe is going to get another big shoe deal. Not til this ccourt buisness is overwith and that could be over a year from now. Sprite has already dropped him and other products may follow suite.
