The big news for adidas Basketball this week was Thursday's unveiling of the Crazyquick, an all-new performance silhouette equipped with multiple flex zones and the returning PureMotion. Washington Wizards point guard and model lead John Wall debuted the Crazyquick in a Player Exclusive colorway against fellow 3-Stripe athlete Ricky Rubio and the Minnesota Timberwolves Wednesday night. The shoe will be available Wednesday, May 1 for $140.
Elsewhere, Knicks guard Iman Shumpert debuted a new colorway of the Real Deal against the Miami Heat at Madison Square Garden last Sunday. The shoe is from an upcoming Spring '13 pack that also includes similar make-ups of the Crazy Light 2, Crazy Fast, TMAC, Top Ten 2000 and Crazy Cool.
