Adidas released the latest in their "The Return" series of ads featuring Derrick Rose rehabbing his mangled knee. This can only end two ways: Rose makes a successful return to the hardwood or he injures his other knee. The way Adidas has had cameras following Rose at every turn already unrealistic expectations for his recovery have taken on hyperbole.

Guess Rose can add us to the list of haters he tweeted about a few weeks back. But he shouldn't. If anything these videos show how hard Rose is working to get back to playing basketball and the breaking points he'll push his body to get there.
