    I know there's not a lot of sneaker conversation on this board but I thought someone might be interested.

    Looks like an October release, although last year adidas released an All Star exclusive version at All Star weekend and then the regular version dropped in April.

    I guess the "Stealth" name is gone, the series is being called "Adidas Team Signature." Duncan's is "TS Lightspeed."

    (Pics of TMac's and Billup's are also in link.)

    Edit: Kori has a nice write up on the shoe:

    Usually Duncan's are more subtle than the others. Not this one.

    Did you like the Stealth last year?

    I liked the Stealth too.
    And the one before that...I forget it's name but it had the clima-cool vents in it.

    I don't like the T-Mac ones, but I like Duncan's and Chauncey's. The red and white with the denticulated front tread (I don't know what else to call it) looks kind of throwback. But I don't like it as much as Duncan's last two shoes.

    Those white T-Macs are sick. Melo usually has the best looking shoes though.

    Just to confirm the above link. adidas.com

    It kind of reminds me of what nike did last year with the air force anniversary series. But only in the sense that the only difference in the shoes are the colors.

    The shoes don't seem to be listed yet on adidas. That's why I used the link I did. They go on sale in October, I assume they'll hit adidas by then.

    The commercial is great though. It came out a while ago. Adidas theme for this season is "Basketball Is Brotherhood." Love the lines in it.

    "Players start, teams finish"

    "Every team needs a hero, every hero needs a team."

    "This isn't a video game, one man can't do it alone."

    "We, not me."

    "Talent gets you on the floor, teamwork keeps you on it."

    And Duncan's: "Like (maybe "Write"? Can't quite hear him.) the name on the front of the jersey, not the back."

    I'm pretty sure Timmy's saying "Like", referring to the team name being on the front of the jersey, rather than the player name on the back. Makes more sense to me.

    That's my guess too.
    I've watched it a few times and because he's writing on the box while he speaks I wondered if I misheard it.

    adidas' cheaper shoes look way better than these to me. not talking about the sambas either, but those are probably the best looking shoes they make.
