I'm not sure why you said that. Like Lebron and Kobe don't wear Jordan's. They're not two entirely different companies.

I can understand the move. He might have a Gilbert Arenas type role with Adidas, instead of wearing hyperfuses.

Russ is pretty popular with the kids isn't he?
Nike was never going to do anything with him, so it doesn't really matter for them.

yeah but the designs didnt help in either case.
Both Converse and Jordan didnt challenge themselves in making his shoe appear as anything other than a shoe that could have been found in Payless with a Shaq logo.
Li Ning is for the money at this point.

Westbrook has been spotted wearing a lot of JB gear lately. And it looks like the Adidas Philippines instagram took down the picture? Doesn't look like things are official yet.

Man there's no worse company to sign with than JB. All their new sneakers are atrocious especially their player sigs. Nobody wants the same retros for the rest of their lives either.

also the fact your sig line will always be in the shadow of the greatest player of all time. its like sharing the same toilet bowl at the same time
ok maybe that was a bad example...and i find it funny that the same guys who defend kobe's shoes whenever some troll attacks them for being low are now saying westbrook is gonna break his ankles because they are adidas

Adidas is still try to find the next Kobe for their brand lol. First Tmac, Gil, Rose now Russel. We not even sure if Rose will ever be the same after the knee injury. Tmac knee were gone after few years with Adidas. Then Gilbert Arenas knee start to do the same after a few years with Adidas. Then Rose lol. I can see the same pattern for Russel

What you talking about? Rose not coming back is FAR from certain, and he's probably the 3rd or 4th most popular player in the league. His shoes sell quite well.

This! Rose's products will sell regardless.
I'm tired of people blaming Adidas for ankle injuries and what not. And I'm a huge supporter of Nike products. I've only played in two adidas shoes my whole life but to say that Rose/Tmac/Gil messed their careers up because they rocked the three stripes is straight foolish. There have been plenty of players to get injured wearing Nike as well.
Back to the main topic, I doubt Russy gets a sig if he rolls to Adidas or Jordan Brand. Probably just get PE crazy lights or Jordan Retros. I wouldn't mind being on team jordan honestly. Classic shoes in your own special colorways. And even though the Wade/Melo/CP sigs may not be classic designs like the AJ line, they sure as hell perform just as well if not better than most sigs out there.

Some of y'all need to quit bein' Nike homers. Competition is always good for consumers. Without it, Nike would be like Madden...same pig every year...different lipstick.

Hit the nail on the head with this comment. To a certain extent they are doing this already - peep the 'Bron X which borrows heavily from the VIII V2/PS.
