I think it's inevitable that they'll release Yeezy cws that most of us would be able to get, similar to what Nike/JB did with the Jordan 1 in the last two to three years. The Royals were fairly hard to get in the US from what people post on here and the black/red ones were hard to get everywhere (of course we're still talking about a large amount of pairs produced....). Adidas made the first releases very rare in relation to the demand to create hype. They'll still release a hard-to-get Yeezy cw every once in a while (like the Fragment 1s) but there will be more available cws. Anything else doesn't really make sense.

No disrespect, but I think some people are missing the point if they're saying Nike doesn't care about what Adidas does because Adidas is too small.

Right now, Adidas is a really small company compared to Nike in the US, which is the biggest, but not the only market. You should bear that in mind when you're referring to anecdotal knowledge. If we're talking worldwide footwear sales, Nike's revenue was twice as much as Adidas' in 2014 (Source: http://www.statista.com/statistics/278834/revenue-nike-adidas-puma-footwear-segment/) which is still a big margin but nowhere near the US margin between them.

There is no business strategy that will have Adidas crush Nike in a couple of years. So right now they're trying to gain market shares in a market they've somewhat neglected for a long time. In the US they're playing a game Nike has played successfully for a while, which is creating hype among a "hip" crowd. That's why they signed Pharrell, Pusha-T and Kanye West. Of course there's And it's working well if you look at the people in this thread, quite a few of which seem fairly ignorant regarding anything Adidas has done pre-Kanye. In Europe they don't need to do that because many classic Adidas silhouettes (ZX series, EQT series, Stan Smith...) are held in high regard by sneaker enthusiasts. 

They won't sell Jordan 11 numbers for quite some time but I reckon that they will gain some more US market shares in the next couple of years. That's what they're aiming for and I'm fairly certain Nike is a bit worried about that, as they should if they know what they're doing. Moving the release date of the 72-10 indicates that they know the Yeezys might take away some hype from them, even though the 11s would have sold out regardless.
