Baron Davis recently took some time out of his busy schedule trying to make the Clippers a playoff team to mash around New York City in a one of your sicker looking shoots promoting his kicks with Chinese sneaker giant Li-Ning. The video features some solid cameos from a few legends in the entertainment industry including Irv Gotti, Jim Jones, D.J. Clue and Common, who tries to pretend like he’s got some game, even though it may be on the Obama level.
Considering that Li-Ning does little to no advertising in the United States, besides chipping a few League dudes to rock their kicks, a video of this magnitude comes as somewhat of a shock. But BD is caking anyways so he might have just used some pocket change on this joint. Via ibeatyou
Sick Kicks: Boom Dizzle’s Chinese Connection

Mark my words, the takeover is almost here. Let’s just keep it real for second, the USA isn’t what it use to be. Across the board the World is catching up and after Centuries of trying to jock our swag, on some levels we are beginning to get surpassed. Case in point, these new kicks that Chinese shoe company Li Ning designed for Clippers guard Baron Davis called the BD1. They look like some moderately wealthy Nike’s and the logo is definitely is a cross between a checkmark, the swosh and the horn on the Minnesota Vikings helmet.
Boom Dizzle bounced from Reebok in the fall of last year to sign with the company, who is doing big numbers in the People’s Republic. So much so that they aren’t even really trippin’ on slanging the shoes in the States, because in China they are hotter than a Wal Mart….geez.
The shoes are completely custom to Boom Dizzle and include a picture of the legendary “Baron’s Beard” on the tongue as well as his name on the back side. They look pretty comfy and if BD kills in them this year, you can guarantee that somehow, some way, they will become a staple out around this way. Don’t sleep on the Clippers. Via Sole Collector
