ROSE SIGNS WITH ADIDAS

I was actually wondering when DRose would get his shoe deal, and who he would sign with. I saw Rose rocking Adidas during his year at Memphis and at Summer League games recently, so I was leaning towards him signing with Adidas. But in the end Nike is Nike, so I thought maybe they would scoop in last minute, and possibly give Rose a huge deal. Well it looks like ultimately DRose signed Adidas for his first big shoe deal.

"The details are being worked out, and I'm very satisfied with the work my agent (former Bulls guard B.J. Armstrong) has done, and I look forward to representing Adidas," Rose said from Las Vegas, where he is playing for the USA Basketball select team that is helping the U.S. Olympic Team prepare for Beijing.

Rose completed a photo shoot and commercial for Adidas last week, so we should be hearing more details about his shoe and deal itself in the upcoming weeks.

Also, this is what Rose had to say about that process...

"I was surprised at all the work that goes into making a commercial, the amount of time and effort it takes to get that one perfect shot," Rose said.

I will try to keep you all posted once I find out more about his shoe and his actual deal, but for now, congrats on your shoe deal DROSE. GO BULLS!!
