Nike Four of top adidas players are hurt in some way. Now if we are talking about in their prime well I still take Nike. They are deep and experienced from top to bottom.
Team Adidas had me at "Welcome to Houston baby." Nike may have the rings and mvps but Adidas front court is beastly and Nike is charmin plush.
The addidas starting five has more rings than the Nike starting five. KG: 1 Duncan: 4 Mcgrady: 0 Arenas: 0 Billups: 1 = 5 Nash: 0 Kobe: 3 LBJ: 0 Sheed: 1 Amare: 0 = 4 But yah i agree on the front court debate LOL.
Nope. Here's the reason why. Most of the Nike team can shoot from the perimeter (exp: Rasheed, Dirk, Marion, Bosh) and Dwight tends to camp in the paint, that's why he get as many blocks, we would need some body more mobile and with less body mass so we could guard the outside, someone like Garnett of timmy. Put in Dwight as JO comes of the benc so he could dominate in the paint with the high flying unit of Josh Smith and co. Not anything concerning talent, just matchup reasons.
Seeing as how half of Team Addidas is crippled (KG, Gilbert, Tmac, Duncan on his last legs) right now I would give the edge to Nike. Nike is hella overstacked...and I believe Addidas had to use Jordan Farmar in one of their Believe in 5 commercials.
