Let's not kid ourselves. Nike makes trash shoes too.
Do shoes seriously make that much of a difference? I would think these injuries happen regardless, but I'm no shoe expert.

This latest injury looks clearly like his shoe gave out causing him to **** up his hamstring.

Lol.
You don't know anything about shoes.

This was the first game I watched that this exact thought crossed my mind. We'll never know if it's the shoes, Adidas has Rose locked into a massive deal.
Shoes do make a difference. Look at Noah. Wasn't he playing in like Tennis shoes for the first 6 years of his career and had many foot problems? And I think he switched to Nike last year and played in real basketball shoes and played so much better. He had the best season of his career.
Rose should switch to Nike.
You guys are making me want to buy some Nike's now. :oldlol:
when you guys say Nike you mean Jordan right?
[QUOTE=buddha]when you guys say Nike you mean Jordan right?[/QUOTE]
Semantics. :confusedshrug:
[QUOTE=buddha]when you guys say Nike you mean Jordan right?[/QUOTE]
Uhhhh.
No.
Jordan's are archaic. They the goat when they were out and still far and away best looking shoes EVER made, but 2014 quality hoop shoes, no.

Ask Grant Hill and his Filas

Noah wore bogus ass le coq de sportiff. Mainly because his dad wore them. They are mainly tennis shoes. He had planter flasciutus. He actually sued them. Lol.
He did switch to addidas doe. But shit, stadia s , knock off Chinese Nikes are better than what he was wearing.
[QUOTE=AKADS]Ask Grant Hill and his Filas[/QUOTE]
Ahhhhhh yes.
Another example. Those filas were heavy uncomfortable pieces of shit.

Oh shit, they still make Le Coq Sportiff? I remember nigguh wearing them shits when I was in school.
And Diadora, British Knights, FILA. :oldlol:

Lol. That's what I'm typin!!
Garbage!!
Bk's all day cuz!!!!! Haha
I don't know if it's the shoes or if he's just injury prone.
I've had his older shoes and they feel like they're made out of cheap light weight material but most of Nikes shoes feel the same way.
I rather hoop in old school 90s or earlier 2000s shoes cause the material feel sooo much better and they actually feel like they are built to last and protect your feet.
Honestly if I was Rose I would get some Ektios but he's dead locked in that contract so he can't rock any other shoe brand which sucks.
all of these shoes are made by little chinese kids in a sweatshop
This isn't a new question and they don't have a good track record. Definitely something to it, didn't Wiggins sign with them?

Yes. He did. Adidas suck.

Oden is a big. They kinda don't count.
That article is interesting.
Especially when you take the amount of total nike wearers to addidas wearers.
WAY more players wear Nikes than addidas.
For all those addidas players to have significant injuries, it seems odd.
And that article was written in 2013. It's almost 2015.
Shoes do make a difference, not 100% positive if that's the case with DRose but the replay clearly shows his shoe giving away. I even thought for a moment that maybe it was a wet spot due to sweating but Patrick Ewing has long since retired
Doesn't his new shoes have that Bounce tech in them? I swear by that shit.
Players wore cloth converse for decades. Rondo and Westbrook both got hurt wearing Nikes. And so did Kobe Bryant. Injuries happen.
rose needs to wear nikes masked as adidas straight up.
He took something like a year and a half to come back from an acl tear. That's not about the shoe. In reality he's only had two major injuries. The situation had been magnified because he has a high profile, takes longer than the norm to return and has now made statements that are getting his toughness questioned on tv by retired stars.
Greg Oden and Andrew bynum
Edit: lol @ 'oden doesn't count', so just whatever fits your agenda then? My bad.
Lol at the loyalty some of you show these mega corporations that spend 5x more on marketing than they do on producing the actual shoes.

any legal team can get him out of it, all they have to do it put a lawsuit together to put Adidas at blame and Adidas will likely rescind the contract...however, DRose is reliant on that payday from Adidas towards his future seeing he may not last long in the NBA.
sticky situation...my guess is DRose will ride out with the Adidas deal, 11-12 more years to go in collecting the $185mil :banghead:
nike should buy derrick roses contract. that would be a dream
[QUOTE=nathanjizzle]nike should buy derrick roses contract. that would be a dream[/QUOTE]
he's not so lucky...Nike is definitely not taking that risk. a dream is where it'll remain.
anyhoo...wearing Nike's now isn't going to magically stabilize DRose, I doubt at this point in his career, any shoe will prevent any further injury from occurring. what's done is done IMO.
I wonder if he reached out to guys like Adrian Peterson...coming back from similar injuries to an even more injury prone sport, that's his best option going forward in rehab for longevity
I cannot believe the stupidity in this thread. While shoes w lots of arch support it no arch support could cause problems like PF in some people, the likelihood of his shoes causing his acl injury and subsequent injuries are very small. What is much more likely is that he has a biomechanical problem (some type of imbalance) that caused his first injury and a resulting imbalamce from that injury that is helping cause these subsequent injuries. That happens sometimes with guys who suffer big injuries in their legs and back. FILA didn't injure grant Hill and Nike didnt injure Durant and Oden and Bynum.

adidas has a higher injury rate than anyone. where is gilbert arenas and tracy mcgrady these days?

though small...it can't be overlooked. but your indication of the imbalance is certainly possible given the favoritism to his knees. usually it's favoring one side to the other, and the other leg fatiguing due to over-compensation. in his case it's favoring both knees, so who knows really. he's just unfortunate

Yes it can be overlooked because people have injuries all the time and play in all kinds of shoes. This is just some bullshit theory that a bunch of uninformed kids picked up on and won't let go of. The guy suffered one injury that led to a bunch of subsequent injuries, that has nothing to do with his shoes. Yao had foot injuries so it must surely have been his shoes right? And T-Mac's that must have been his shoes as well? And Oden? And Bynum? and Brandon Roy? Penny? People get injuries all the time. This is a very obvious case of a guy getting injured and compensating and causing other injuries. A succession of injuries stemming from one injury is not uncommon and happens all the time. Why everyone wants to put it down to Roses shoes is totally stupid and not fair to him and pointless.

i don't doubt that the overcompensation point, however it is pretty bold not to even question it when the shoe basically gave loose :confusedshrug:
what's the scenario on possibly a wet floor?

imo, with derrick rose's injuries, i think the bulls management would be very careful whenever he's on the floor and the ball boys or the guys that mop wet spots should constantly be on the look out, if they are not, then they are failing him. :rant

if it was a wetspot then would he really had a hamstring injury. looking at that gif, the right edge of his shoe should have dampened more and not allowing his ankle to bend at a hard angle.
