Lebron James
THE NEW FLYEST GUY IN THE NBA?!
THE NEW FLYEST GUY IN THE NBA?!
When it comes to fashion of high profile basketball athletes a couple of names come to mind. Lebron, Russell, Harden, etc. but there been a new face when it comes to NBA fashion. That person is……PJ Tucker.
PJ Tucker effortlessly connects grail-level sneakers (that’s the word for exclusives for those who don’t know) with current trends that never feels like he’s over doing it.
Even on the court, PJ Tucker has been consistent with the shoe game which makes him in the talks of the best on-the-court style in the league.
If there is a NBA style award category for the 2018 and PJ Tucker isn’t involved then ask yourself: Is there really a NBA STYLE AWARD then?

TRAITS YOU SHOULD EMBODY THAT THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO EMBODY
TRAITS YOU SHOULD EMBODY THAT THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO EMBODY
All of us on the road to success each walk a unique path but there is something that each of us encounter along the way: people telling us what we should/shouldn't do and who we should/shouldn't be. Here are three traits that people try to label those who are brave enough to display bold ambition.
ARROGANCE
In reality, it takes a lot of confidence to make the bold move of pursuing a purpose. When average people see you take on a new attitude of self-belief they re-brand it as "arrogance". There's nothing arrogant about wanting to be your best or seeing your vision come into fruition. All the greats get branded as arrogant such as; Michael Jordan, JAY Z, Tom Brady etc, but notice no one is calling a 3rd string quarterback for the Browns arrogant that's because he doesn't matter! Only those who impact can truly be felt will be called arrogant because their confidence is perceived as threatening.
DELUSIONAL
People who haven't took risks are the ones who possess the most limited mindset, they only can see as far as their natural eye. The state of delusion is something everyone possessed if they actually made a difference in the world. Back when Phil Knight first entered the sneaker market, he convinced Japan sneaker brand Onitsuka Tigerthat his company could sell their shoes in the United States. His company didn't even exist, he even made up the name on the spot! That's definitely "delusional" and out of your mind but any normal person with a limited scope couldn't have been that quick on their toes and without that delusion we wouldn't have the NIKE that we have today.
SELFISH
Even I have been called this numerous times as of late. If you're a person with ambition you will be called this too at one point or another but only because it's true! Selfishness has negative connotations but it's only when you put yourself first that you can go all in on your efforts! You could've called Lebron James selfish back when he first decided to join the Miami Heat. He had a goal to be a champion and while he could've been "loyal" to his home team he did what was best for his goal. He eventually went back and won a championship for Cleveland but again him winning a 'ship for Cleveland was HIS goal! People may try to sway you and guilt trip you but if you don't do what's best for you how could you possibly ever help the people that need you to the best of your ability?
So that's it, in a world filled with many positives and negatives you can always expect the positive to be spun towards the negative. However YOU always control the narrative and whatever is said about you, you can always control how to REACT to it.
