Excuse if been posted!
So, Jordan was going to sign with Adidas. Correct? Do you guys think Jordan Brand will be where they are via Adidas, instead of Nike? Thoughts.... |

One things for sure, Adidas would have a bigger share of the basketball sneaker market, but I think Nike's smart marketing of MJ is what really helped them
to grow into an empire. So, I think it would have just depended on Adidas's ability to market Mike.

A lot of my jay purchases come from knowing that he actually wore the colorway. would be interesting to see what 23 models adidas would've came up with. ahhh well, i'm satisfied with the brand overall, and i'm sure everyone else here is too. otherwise, you wouldn't be in the JB forums.  actually, we'd probably be on adidastalk.

The sneaker game wouldn't be anywhere close as it is today. The legacy of the Jordan signature line owes a lot to Tinker Hatfield. Jordans - Tinker= just
same old shoes

the sneaker game as we know it would be completely changed. Without MJ, Nike would probably go out of business or lurk around payless, while Adidas would
probably become the premier athletic brand. There would be no such thing as signature sneakers and technology such as zoom air may never be discovered. At
the end of the day, MJ would help adidas sell sneakers, but his own sneaker legacy would never be established and the hobby that we hold so dear today would
seem more like a fetish.

If Jordan signed with Adidas, we'd all be rockin Air Sam Bowie's! The player that was never meant to be, but he had dope shoes!
