Derrick Rose

April 13, 2012 – Griffin Gotta Before we get to the weekend, a quick word on the Miami Heat and the “statement game.” Clearly, last night’s inability to overpower the Chicago Bulls’ bench unit is not going to look good on the resume, seeing as how they may need to defeat these Bulls — with [...]

April 13, 2012 – Dan Favale Tom Thibodeau and Erik Spoelstra. Both coach contending teams with superior talent, but only one has the guts to rock the boat. The Bulls defeated the Heat 96-86 in an overtime thriller, sans the overtime period. The game had playoff implications, in more ways than one, but it was [...]

April 9, 2012 – Dan Favale For more than a decade, the Knicks have been void of a presence like the one Carmelo Anthony provided Sunday afternoon. It was a presence that has been so desperately craved since the arrivals of both Amar’e Stoudemire and Anthony, and it’s a presence both players have failed to [...]

April 4, 2012 – Ben Berry With the Chicago Bulls being first in the Eastern Conference and having clinched a playoff position, the Bulls premiere player Derrick Rose will be in conversation throughout the NBA playoffs. When he’ll return to play is yet to be determined, but adidas is properly prepared with what might be [...]

March 27, 2012 – Griffin Gotta Last night the Chicago Bulls were the rare victims of an ugly loss. It was at home no less, and it saw Denver Nuggets’ point guard Ty Lawson running wild and free en route to 27 points in a 108-91 win. This is the sort of game that makes [...]

March 15, 2012 – Ben Berry Light Delivers Derrick Rose green sneakers by way of adidas. Kelly green luckskin nubuck makes up the majority of the upper of the ‘St. Paddy’ adiZero Rose 2.5; very similar to the color adidas used for Rose last St. Patrick’s Day. White is the complementary color with gold used [...]

March 13, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Derrick Rose is one of the most humble big-time players that the NBA has ever seen. He goes about his business and doesn’t usually make too much noise. Until now that is. Apparently he’s upset that he is not getting the ‘superstar’ calls like he should. Somewhat of [...]

March 12, 2012 – Dan Favale Dwight Howard is a presence that any team should welcome with open arms, except for the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls have league’s best record, and manipulating a roster that clearly isn’t broken could prove costly down the stretch. [...]

March 9, 2012 – Ben Berry adidas Basketball takes you to the ‘School of Hard Knocks’. The first sighting of this new adiZero Rose 2.5 came via second half of the 2012 All-Star Game when Derrick Rose changed out of the ‘High Energy’ Rose 2.5s and laced these up. Many thought this pair would be [...]

March 5, 2012 – R.S. De France Los Angeles Lakers 5-time champion, 14-time All-Star, and 2-time Finals’ MVP Kobe Bryant has said repeatedly this season that he wants to go out winning a 6th NBA championship. But how can that happen with this Lakers’ team, one of the best defensive teams, one of the worst [...]
