can't believe how dumb some people are but I guess I shouldn't be surprised when it's a lakerfan.
Revenue and sales do not equal profit. Jordan received $90 million in PROFIT. Nike made $2.25 billion in REVENUE. No one except Nike executives know what the Jordan's line operating margin is. However, we know Nike's overall operating margin is 13.72% because it's a publicly traded company. $2.25 billion x .1373 = $305,270,000. Of that $300 million, Jordan received $90 million, which is roughly 30% of the profits.

@ Jordan was robbed of billions

@ Nike can conjure shoes and workers out of thin air without paying any money

@ Nike is taking advantage of Jordan
LOL @ the operating margin arguement. It's is a complete facade when everyone knows they pay 1cent per sneaker in sweat factories only to turnaround and sell them for 1000 + % of the cost. When it comes to MJ shoes he's not getting no where close to 30%...dude is being robbed blind.
