I was reading this small article in my local sports this morning. They asked Lebron James since his Nikes sell for around $150, would he ever endorse a less expensive sneaker like Stephon Marbury's whose sneaker sell for around $15. Lebron said he doesn't think so because being with Nike, they both hold their standards high.

Marbury was informed of LeBron's comments and he responded, "I rather own than be owned."

I thought that was interesting. Stephon had a point though.
