The day he tore his acl tore was one of the saddest days here in Chicago. We got robbed of a superstar too early. Hurts to even watch the highlights still
Never seen his prime, it was only his 3rd season when he won MVP. He had so much more room to grow as a player to reach his prime. The man Probably would have won more MVPs.
With more spacing on the court easy! I love Boozer and Noah for that time, hell even Ronnie Brewer. But prime Rose with this kind of spacing is beyond scary hour.
this is the highest praise to hear from your competitors, especially when they compliment the person you are outside the competition - personally. means a lot to say & hear - a whole lot. most impressive!
DANG,I didn't know that,but,D-Rose was-FIRE-in his prime.So glad I was watching nba games back then. I remember the Bulls trading his back-court-mate ( I don't remember his name tho ) but,the guy could shoot tho,they made room for Rose to shine even more.
@@silient6 Fr, there is no such thing as prime D-Rose, cause we never got the chance to witness that. His game would've been so much polished, its scary to think about...
loved prime DRose, he's the whole reason I got into starting playing and watching hoops. the dude was undersized and still embarrassed everyone in front of him.
That bulls team lead by 🌹 was definitely a contender. Prime rose was beautiful to watch. Str8 silent killer. Let my game do the talking, and you knew he was gon come to play every game.
Shout Raymond Felton. I met him the year he got drafted. To see a superstar from the Tarheels in Eastland mall was wild. Big boy Bentley too. I met Chris Gamble in the same mall the same day.
Played similar style and Russ don’t get enough respect. Averaging a triple double two seasons in a row would be difficult for NBA stars to do against D1 players
There’s a lot famous Chicagoans…But the names I’ve heard the most over the years, Chaka Khan,Isiah Thomas,Bernie Mac,Kanye West and D Rose…D Rose style of play mirrors the infamous Englewood neighborhood…I’ve seen that toughness,form on his jumper and speed off the dribble back in the 70s…He’s Chicagos native son, and that’s why we cheer for.
I remember before D Rose got injured, everyone was pointing out how he constantly landed awkwardly and it was only a matter of time before he'd get injured. That's why I don't think he belongs in the debate over who's the biggest what if in NBA history.
My dad had just passed away and my boys came out and made me go out to watch the layoffs cuz I love basketball and they knew I loved Rose. That was the day he tore his shit up and it killed me, mang 😞 Man… Rose was on his way to the HOF, no doubt 💯
@@dw4867 what does that mean, honestly only pg he really had to match up with was deron Williams and Chris Paul and he wasn’t really doing nothing when he match up against them
I keep hearing about players having the flu playing against MVP D Rose but I look back at the game logs and nobody of worthy was trying to dodge him. Can anybody else do some research because I’m finding nothing of players avoids D Rose. It’s mostly players that are not in the rotation and players that are expected to be out vs D Rose.
Bro everybody running wit dis cap ass story is crazy I love Pooh man I’m from da southside of Chicago so our love for him is immense but I don’t kno where mfs is getting dis from 🤣
@rickyvalle21 yea I watched his career with the bulls living in the Chicago area and don’t remember players not playing. I mean guys never ducked MJ, so I don’t think people was ducking D Rose and I love Rose.
@@biggmikeizationhow the fuck y'all gone tell several different NBA players they was wrong, like y'all was on the teams in those locker rooms, y'all clowned tf out
He wasn’t even in his prime yet really. He won MVP in 2010-2011 (3rd year) and then played 39 games the next year and after that played 10. He was done as far as being the MVP D Rose.
is speed and quickness, combined with his change of direction, ball handling, ability to jump well off one or two feet and, stop on a dime, finish at the rim around or through contact, and get downhill like a ball shot out of a cannon was transcendent. People compare Ja to him and Ja is an exhilarating athlete but he would not be able to withstand D.Rose. He was too big, too strong, and too fast for any PG. Westbrook would be the best comparison in terms of how his career could played out but Russ didn't have the ball handling and finishing like Rose.
It's a trend to downplay the legends of the past but you got some that just can't invalidate and Rose one of them ones. Not a single point guard that was athletically superior since then because we only saw him before he got to his peak.
D-Rose was great but I don't understand why his dunk od Dragić is such a big deal. Dude is a point guard,a young european on top off it. Is not like he's dunking on a center or a big forward.
I said the same thing Ellis just didn't dunk like rose but far as speed and movement they are similar but folks said I was crazy but just look at hoe they played
@@diplomatboy21 d rose was just stronger. But speed and quickness was similiar between the two. Derricks first step may have been slightly quicker but athleticism was similar.
The fact that mid players like Theo can make money talking about the NBA should show you how much of a “trading card” league this is. Dudes get more known off they stories than the work. Bringing real niggas like Raymond on here knowing they ain’t cut from half the cloth as players from that era

The day he tore his acl tore was one of the saddest days here in Chicago. We got robbed of a superstar too early. Hurts to even watch the highlights still
as like a 11-13-year-old it was the worst day ever! i quit watching the Bulls after that, i was so sad
Not only did Chicago get robbed, but the whole world was robbed from greatness. D Rose is still an all time great. 🔥🙌
I’m pissed to this day 😢 ChiTown
one of the saddest for a basketball fan period
Him and dwight Howard getting injured softened up the east so hard
Crazy thing is...D Rose wasn't even in his PRIME yet!!! He was just scratching the surface.....
Facts!!!
Yeap
Never seen his prime, it was only his 3rd season when he won MVP. He had so much more room to grow as a player to reach his prime. The man Probably would have won more MVPs.
Too Chicago he was prime
Rose 🌹
It’s his prime, when you consider his whole career. Prime is your best not if you can get better because it can only be measure of what you done
this is well documented at this point and it’s crazy D Rose really a legend man
Rose will forever be the GOAT what if player of all time. His 25ppg back in 2011 would be an easy 30-32 right now.
If his jump shot was better and his 3 point shot then yeah maybe!
Bron averaged what that season again
With more spacing on the court easy! I love Boozer and Noah for that time, hell even Ronnie Brewer. But prime Rose with this kind of spacing is beyond scary hour.
Man What 🗣️!!! MVP 🌹.. #TOOFASTTOOSTRONGTOOBIGTOOGOOD
What about Len bias 🤔
nobody can change directions like drose speed n control was crazy 🔥🔥🔥
DROSE would have been a champion if not for his injuries. At least a 1 time champion. His prime was SCARY!!
I agree the bulls was always just a piece away from a chip. If he played with another all star it would have been a wrapped.
this is the highest praise to hear from your competitors, especially when they compliment the person you are outside the competition - personally. means a lot to say & hear - a whole lot. most impressive!
I agree with you. Like Joakim Noah stated in an interview it still hurt to this day.
“What are you doing Dragic?! Did you not get the memo?! Derrick Rose can go UPSTAIRS!” 😂
This like the 3rd time I’ve heard a story like this from 3 different ppl. Lol!
D rose should be in the hall of fame‼️ huge part of my childhood
Norris Cole said the same thing how PGs would randomly miss games vs D.Rose 😂

D Rose was a guaranteed show every game. He never shrunk against any opponent.

My friend scored 33 on me with Felton in 2K once... that was the end of our friendship
😂😂
His 3 was cash in 2k13
Shout Raymond Felton. I met him the year he got drafted. To see a superstar from the Tarheels in Eastland mall was wild. Big boy Bentley too. I met Chris Gamble in the same mall the same day.
I hope Derrick Rose makes the HOF.
Raymond Felton was that guy back in the day. Respect
Drose was on a diffrent level the only thing i seen close was russ and im being polite
Russ def not close

Almost didn’t recognize Felton , haven’t seen him in a minute
Hey I gotta tip my hat to Drogic for even attempting to block that. I want that guy on my team.

Bro said DRose Flu 😂😂😂😂
Saw this in another comment and it’s the truth….the GOAT what if
What sad is Derrick Rose never reached his prime because of injuries...I still be saying what if when it comes to him
Retirement keeping ray felton big as hell
😂
It was that way of playing that caused his knees to go bad so early.
Imagine hitting your prime at 22 🎉🎉
He didn't even do that. He was just that superior that you THINK it was his prime. We never saw his prime to this day.
Dawg Aj gotta funny voice
Rays in game shape.
Raymon Felton !

My favorite player ever D.Rose
D rose we can only imagine what if ...... hey we be happy we saw greatness amen 🍻
Not a D-Rose fan but I wished Chicago made the Finals in 2015.
Them vs the Warriors or Clippers was my dream Finals for that season
We gotta go back and look at the “injury” report for teams back then to find names 😂
D rose was on course to be the greatest facts
D🌹 is my 3rd favorite player ever after Jordan and Kobe. D🌹 is my greatest PG ever no one messing with D 🌹 period.
Derrick Rose was unguardable before he got hurt bulldog off the leash 🔥🔥🔥
I witnessed it 💯😞🔥
mvp d 🌹 ✊🏼
D Rose highlights was the only time I bumped J Cole
As a Chicagoan I will never forgive Thibs for having him in the game with that lead.
Damn Raymond!!!!! That weight bruh??? Push away from the table.
Bro I thought I was trippin. He is huge now
Lookin like t rex
Kyrie, CP3 and others ducked him, only player that was with the shit was Russ
Kyrie never ducked d rose my boy, stop that bull shit
Drose himself said his toughest match-up was Rondo, you don't get that respect by ducking those games.

Them burgers making Felton fat as fack 😂 never stop from being a pro to even retirement 😂
Royals still ain’t sent our roses 😂but thanks for tires bulls will pay to Goodwin something like 😂
D Rose was too explosive for the human body. If in a hypothetical world he reached his peak, he could have dunked from the 3 point line.
Crazy thing is they keep sayin his prime he never reached it

Mannn you hear about players fearing certain legends but you don't hear it about the self proclaimed g**t.
I wouldn't be surprised if Lebalco James put witchcraft on some of these elite players to get them injured Cuz he knew he could never compare lol
I don’t think Rose ever hit his prime. He was only 4 years in before the injury.
D 🌹 BEST PG ALL TIME YOU A REAL DUED TO ADMIT THAT BECAUSE ALOT OF PEOPLE DIDNT WANT TO PLAY D ROSE 🌹 HE IS DIFFERENT ROSE FLU 🤒
Correction: DRose was never in his prime…we never saw it
