Watch: Duncan, Rose Star In Foot Locker Ad Poking Fun At Their Personalities
(CBS) Bulls point guard Derrick Rose has starred in a new commercial for Foot Locker for its "Week of Greatness," and before you watch it, we ask you read our disclaimer.
We, as well as all basketball fans in the Western Hemisphere, are well aware that Rose hasn't been on the court consistently this year or hardly at all in the past two seasons. So before you go watching his newest Foot Locker commercial here, please hold off with your unimaginative "If he put half the effort into playing that he did acting ... " jokes, stop. Just stop. At this point, they're as frustrating as Rose not being on the floor.
This is what stars do, make big bucks off to the side.
That said, we too admit Rose isn't the main draw of this spot. It's Spurs big man Tim Duncan, who comes through splendidly as the ad makes light of his and Rose's quiet personalities. Take a look above.
And then hope that Rose gets back on the floor and can do what Duncan's done five times: win a championship.
