since dwight and rose are both Adidas top 2 clients, they feel that teamed up, they wont be able to maximize both products............i guess it is still about the money

"Adidas simply cannot have its two signature players on the same team in the same market. Derrick is the face of that market, owns that market, and Adidas can’t possibly have maximum bang for its buck with Dwight there. It serves Adidas no purpose. They need them as rivals in competing markets."

this comes from Adrian Wojnarowski who is the GOAT journalist!!!

    i think u have a point, i also think he doesnt wna go there cuz he knows Rose is from Chi-town and OWNs that city, even if dwight avg. 30 and 15 with the bulls, he will never get the love that Rose will as the face of that team

    He doesn't want to come to chicago cause Chicago isn't his kinda town and he's not willing to commit the type of defense that Coach Thibs demands of Bulls players.

    R niccas really this emotional in the League joe. And I disagree if Howard came to the Bulls he would be more popular than ever was w/ the Magic. I thought it was about winning though thats crazy b/c I think Howard would a better fit in Chicago than New Jersey or Lakers

    Dwight doesnt wanna play in Chicago because he's too soft to play in the Chi... they'd ? all over him for having 11 point games..

    Agree with the bolded, disagree with the underlined. Chicago is a selfless team.

    It is all about market share and regional endorsements. Adidas does not have that many stars on its endorsement list, they need their players to spread out to compete with nike's regional advertising.

    Man thats a bunch of ? Jordan and Pippen was on the same team and Nike was making a killing with the J's and Pippen's. Dwight just don't want to play second fiddle. Chicago is the third largest market in the country he would make a killing like D.Rose is making. If you a superstar endorsements going to come regardless

    but I don't mind it at that level....emphasis on "mind"

    but at the professional level, as a fan, I'd have to go on a ? Adidas rampage lol

    no way I'm allowing Adidas to ruin a championship for my team and for my city...that's a lifetime memory man

    whether he does or doesnt, Chicago would be dumb not to at least try to trade for him. I think if dwight was there for half a year...he would warm up to the idea of playin wit d rose

    They tried, Bulls front office told the Magic that everyone on the roster was available to trade except D Rose.

    They also was go add 2 1st rd draft picks which one of them was from the Bobcats so it would have been a good pick considering Charlotte stinks
