No doubt about it.

I just think this campaign is wild. Is it innovative because there's no other way to market him & his new shoe right now? Ehh...sure.

I'm just reacting because it's something I don't think has ever been done before...and it's just a lil' strange to me.

I guess it's because of how it happened, who it happened to, how it crushed the city (hence the commercial), etc.
I agree...its weird. understandable but weird

You don't think there is going to be crazy hype his first game back?

Buzz? Yeah. Crazy hype? Nah. I don't know if nikkas realized, but after the Finals, the media and NBA pretty much made LeBron and Durant the only two players that mattered in the league with Kobe being a somewhat distant third. The Olympic coverage was a perfect exhibit of that. Other players will get pub if they have great games or get into controversy, but Bron and Durant are pretty much all the national media care about. If the Bulls are trash by the time Rose returns don't expect crazy anticipation and coverage.

Nah.. you are wrong. This return will be very hyped and it will be one of the biggest storylines of this season. I really don't give a fukk about anyone's opinion but that Bulls team was the only squad with a legit chance to beat the Heat, outside of Boston. The Bulls would have waxed that OKC ass in a series.

adidas Basketball: The Return of D Rose TV Commercial -- Wake Up - YouTube

These dramatic commercials, the webisodes, the hashtags, etc.

I mean, the dude tore his knee up just like hundreds of other athletes have in the past. Some come back ok, some tear the shyt right up again, some are never the same again.

What if the poor guy gets hurt again? Are they gonna have a campaign for every injury he gets? :heh:

Wasn't the word that he possibly wasn't gonna play the entire year anyway?

Adidas is milking this investment. Hope it works out.

He signed a 200+ million dollar deal. Did you think they would let us forget about him?

They got shoes to sell man!

The one time I played in Adidas I tore my MCL. I think they're the shyttiest basketball shoes on the market. They're starting to look nice, but such a shytty insole. shyts feel uneven.

Nike>>>>>>>>>>>Jordan>>Under Armour>>>>Reebok>>Shaqs>>Spaulding Olajuwons>>>>>>>And 1>Them Chinese shyts Baron Davis wore> Adidas.

I'm no bball shoes expert, but from a sole perspective, the Rose joints look like regular ass Chuck Taylor's compared to the Bron ones...damn.

I tried on those Rose's a few months ago. Feels great for everyday walking around, etc. But I wouldn't jump over a phone book in them joints. Felt reeeal unstable.

With Nike I jump like a maniac..
