D Rose hurt again

These days acl tears dont affect athletic ability that much. Doubt rose will lose much in the form of quickness or athleticism.

Maybe so, however you add the acl tear along with the lower back, groin, toe and ankle to a guy whose game is predicated on explosion and getting to the hole....these injuries will add up at some point.

At least now he gets some time to rest the other injuries that have been nagging him all season. I have no doubt that a year from now D-Rose will be back and as dominating as ever.
 
Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. *^(*(*&##@@#$(*&)*&*&%!!!!!!!!!
 
An Already crappy East just got crappier. I can't think of one series in that conference I want to see now. At least we have the Western Conference to keep us interested before the finals. Watch freaking LBJ go down to really put a fork in it.

Does anyone know of a dominant superfast guard like DR that came back and was dominant after a MCL/ACL tear at this point in their career?

Oh well. he would have shot 6.3% while guarded by Lebron and Bulls would have gotten smoked by the heat AGAIN anyway.

Not sure the Bulls have been SMOKED by the HEAT yet this year with or without Rose.....

The Heat have always been the favorite but saying they smoke the Bulls this year is a joke.
 
I'm wondering if the condensed schedule hasn't had anything to do with all of the injuries we've seen this year.

He'll get state of the art surgery and treatment but a torn ACL is a horrible injury for a slasher like Rose.

I hope he recovers fully but I think people are starting to take this injury for granted. There is a reason why it takes so long to come back from this type of injury, its because its the worst of the worst.

I'm not a Bulls fan but Magic Johnson said it best today, all NBA fans lose because of this.
 
Is this how Iowa fans felt when Ronnie Lester got hurt in the tournament because this is a kick in the balls.
 
Kyle Korver's thoughts:

Right about now, the disbelief has faded, anger has subsided and were all wondering... why? Why. Why. Why Derrick, again? Derrick is more than an MVP to our team. He's our friend, our brother he inspires us to be the very best we can be, just by who he is and how hard he plays. That he has spent so much time this year hurt, was frustrating. Now that he is out for the rest of the season, well its just plain sad. No one is to blame; what happened, did. We send him our prayers, our love, our good wishes that he heals and comes back stronger, better, healthier than ever before.

Bulls fans. Now is not the time to ask why or to get bitter. Now is the time to refocus and ask "How are we going to win this Championship?" We have the best Team in the league. This season has proven, we are a TEAM and it has taken us ALL to have the best record. Lets focus on whats ahead. This is an incredible opportunity for All of Us to step up and make it happen. We're all gonna have to work harder and smarter. We are all gonna have to believe in ourselves. That we are more than the sum of our parts. We need YOU to believe with Us. We need You to believe for Us. We are going to keep going strong. One quarter, one game, one round at a time. Until its over. That's how we're gonna do it.

Agreed, I'll be in Fed Ex tonight watching the Grit Grind Grizzlies try to shut down Lob City, but I still want to be able to see some decent basketball out of the lEastern Conf.

Memphis should cruise in that series. They are a terrible match up for the Clippers. I think whoever wins the Spurs-Grizz series comes out of the west.

USA basketball will now have to go to London without Rose or Dwight Howard.

And only Rose will have a legitimate excuse for not being there. I really soured on Dwight this year the way he gave up on his team. I don't care how upset you are at your contract situation you don't quit on your team, ever.
