I don't really get what all the discussion is about in here and too lazy to read 4 pages. Bottom line is Rose is a great player who unfortunately won't get to his full potential because of injuries. Some players just don't have the body to hold up in pro sports (Grant Hill, Penny Hardaway, Brandon Roy). It's unfortunate, but his glory days are almost all but over. Would not surprise me if he still played til he was 35 like Grant Hill did, but he'll never be the same.

Youre right.... no players ever get cleared and get re-injured....
Stop making excuses to hate on a fukking guy who caught some bad luck.
And no, 75% of no player is good enough in this league. This league is full of talent.
thats why lebron sat out for 2 weeks because he WAS NOT 100% and could not help his team as much as he should. Now hes back and feeling much better and look... theyre winning...
The fact of the matter is, noone has a reason to hate rose other than pure ignorance and intelligence that only extends as far as ESPN will report.Comment -
Lebron would not have sat out 2 weeks of the plsyComment -
Wait....people hate him? Why? What has he ever done to anyone on here? And i'm pretty sure him getting injured isn't his fault.Comment -
Playoffs* bc lebrComment -
Who cares when it was. Its the same fukking concept just rose with a 100× more serious injury.Originally posted by ZetaPsi808
i guarantee you no doctor told LeBron he wasnt "clear to play" but he made a decision for his wellbeing.Comment -
Ignorance is why.Originally posted by KRIT
blaming a guy for a fukking slew of injuries and they think he should have come back right when a doctor "cleared" Him.Comment -
Until you've had the same injuries and can compete on such a high level what you say doesn't make sense, go on YouTube and watch Rose right before playoffs playing one on one, he wad in no way able to be productive in the nba.Originally posted by ZetaPsi808Comment -
He was nowhere near 75%.Originally posted by ZetaPsi808Comment -
Not a Rose hater, more of a conflicted Bulls fan. Like others have said he was a talented player who's body couldn't handle the demands of the NBA. But it's hard to feel sorry for a guy sitting on $100 million while Bulls championship hopes go down the tubes each year. 'The return' Adidas debacle made things worse. It's all played out in public and in 20 years when Rose is at his meetings and graduations he'll have do deal with everyone's pity. Despite the money in the bank it looks like the rest of his life is a fukkn sad story.
He's one injury away from being finished. Left knee's held up since ACL surgery but you have to wonder if that's next to go.Comment -
Rose has won an MVP, lets not be ridiculous here. Rose can plan for his 1 year old son's high school graduation party now.Comment -
playoffs wayyyy more important than regular season. the spurs rest their players all the time to heal injuries in the regular seasonOriginally posted by THam12
when its playoff time, when the star players can walk u better be ready to go to war (figurative) and play for your teamComment -
think of aaron rodgers limping around the field vs the cowboys and seahawks in the nfl playoffs. Rodgers had a slight tear in addition to the strain in his calf, limiting his mobility 7 days before the first playoff game vs the cowboys
thats what the great ones do. kobe, ewing, dwayne wade, they all played hurt in the playoffs
rose didnt... he has less pride than the other stars
and for the record i loved rose when he was having all star seaons.Comment -

This was a SIGNIFICANT tear to the MOST important and complex joint in the body.
Of course you loved him when he was having all star seasons, everyone did. Now hes a pussy cause he got hurt? Naw. Only fukk boys think that.Comment -
read my example about aaron rodgers. rodgers injury happened 7 days before the playoff game. rose's injury was MONTHS before, and then the doctors cleared him to play. guys like kobe, paul pierce, barkley, wade, they all would have played in the playoffs given rose's situation.Originally posted by THam12

but rose is selfish and cares more about being able to walk pain free at his sons graduation
hey thats cool, unless youre making 15 million a year.Comment -
Rose saying he wants to walk pain free at his sons graduation
His son probably wont even graduate
Rose probably wouldnt have been in attendance even if he didComment -
why are people continuing to defend derrick rose?
the dude is a pussy
him refusing to play for an ENTIRE YEAR tells u all u need to know
rose sat out not because of he was injured, but because he was scaredComment -
Im done talking about it. Ive already made the points that need to be made.
People here arent smart enough to talk beyond "hes a pussy" and "hes selfish."Comment -
It looks like we're going to have a third year in a row of "will he or won't he come back." And if he doesn't, definitely going to be a lot of "he's a pussy." We'll know more later today, but it does seem this is the kind of surgery guys come back from in 4-6 weeks, which would put him back in the last week or so of the reg season.Comment -
He'll be back.Comment -
He will be lucky if he is back next season.Originally posted by d2betsComment -
bottom line he is washed up
he will never make an all star team again even as a reserve and ill put money on that.Comment -
Who tha fukk cares if he makes an all star team?? Did you see the all star voting this year? Its not at all consistent with the best players in the league. Boogie didnt get voted in, Lillard didnt get voted in....Originally posted by ZetaPsi808
If you think all star votes mean anything, youre dumber than i thought.Comment -
lmao not your resulting to insulting me, pathetic ^Originally posted by THam12
he wont be a top 30 player in the league, whatever metric u look at. sucks brahComment -
You just arent intelligent enough to hold a conversation with. you say the same thing over and over.Originally posted by ZetaPsi808Comment -

D Rose is going to be A-OK! back in 4-6 weeks and the surgery went really well as reports are telling us. Do you think he will still be able to make a difference in the playoffs?Originally posted by THam12Comment -
I cant imagine why not. Not nearly as serious as his past injuries. Lets hope he can rehab well!Originally posted by Megan RochesterComment
