LeBron James recently filmed a video for GQ in which he detailed his general reaction to seeing his opponents lace up his signature sneakers.
“So, for me, now being in that MJ class, if he’s not a real brother of mine, if you’re just a guy that’s just like, you actually just go to Foot Locker or somewhere, you just get a pair of ‘Brons and you want to wear ’em on a Tuesday night vs. me? I’ma bust your ass. Straight up.”
Perhaps sensing that it’s not great business to state that you will bust the ass of guys who wears your shoe and gives you free brand advertising on their feet, LeBron issued a clarification on Friday through Twitter.
Listen it's truly humbling and a honor that guys like to wear my kicks on court! Salute. #StriveForGreatness

There you have it. LeBron loves it when people wear his shoes (and he will probably still bust their ass regardless).
