A nice article by Kim French
this article is a worthwhile read. maybe we need some new shoes!
Isn't the first time I've seen the shoes called into question because of the injuries
Nice to see an actual write up on it out there. But, I agree with the author — not enough evidence to support the theory.

Derrick Rose’s Shoes
shoes or no shoes
adidas sucks! When do you ever hear a person standing in line to get a pair of adidas? NEVER! Its a Pitino thing with Sonny Vacarrio (maybe mispelled?) All kids wanna wear what the best players in the game wear..Nike’s or Jordan’s. Yeah i know D Rose wears adidas. They still suck.
