well he should develop more of his range game if he want to stay healthy, yes we all know him as the explosive rose, but if you want to see him still play healthy he need a better range game.
@@rezidential2643 D Rose is actually play both PG and SG off the bench but mainly at the 2. So really Rose was able to play his natural game which is a scorer and be unstoppable in the paint
That 50 point game felt so good to watch man, and it was so emotional. It must've felt great for him and I'm so happy for him. Edit: As far as prime D-Rose, he was obviously athletic and amazing, the IQ was there. If he knew then what he knows now, who knows how great he could've been

My heart still aches for this young man. Some players transcend jerseys, cities, numbers, fans. He was one of them for me. So humble. Aches man, it truly does...........
Good video as always. Just have to mention that saying Noah and Deng were 'pretty good' is an understatement. Both were allstars and excellent defenders. Noah was DPOY and an MVP candidate one year. Had a unique skillset. Deng is one of the more underrated players of late 2000s/early 2010s. He's not as good as Kawhi, but in that mould of not flashy but effective. His defense was underrated. Great system player. Good job for the NBA he was never a Spur in his prime.
If his body could have handled everything he threw at it, I think he would easily be a top 5-10 player of all time. We didnt even see him at his best, probably. He is basically a smarter Westbrook with a shot, he would have dominated if it wasnt for all the injuries. But then again, the injuries were to be expected seeing how he landed every single time. Such a shame he never reached his full potential. You can see he really wants it. His 50 point game shows he still cares immensely for the game.
Back then, I've always seen D-Rose as that guy who never showed emotions. He was like Kawhi back then, heck I forgot which year, but there was an all-star game where he just stood there while his teammates were goofing around. It's just so heartwarming to see that 50pt game to the point I actually shed a tear.
He's now limited not by brain but physically limited since so many injuries he had that definitely force him to do "safer games", but the mentality iq perfect ! He's the one who made me love nba so much especially bulls at that time
It's great to see Rose play well again. That said, any GM who gives Rose a big deal should be relieved of his duties. There's still way too much risk there.
@@lilshaneman10 He definitely isn't anymore. He has a chance if this season actually resurrects his career but it'd be a pity throw in if he got in off his current career.

It was so great to see D 🌹 drop bucket after bucket on his way to 50 point’s last night. One of the greatest performances in NBA History. You could see how much that meant to Derrick in his post game interview, his teammates mobing him on the court after that, and all the fan’s cheering too. Even if your not a timberwolves fan and just a fan of the NBA and Basketball in general, you got to be happy for Derrick Rose. After all those knee injuries and surgeries for him to fight back and drop 50, that’s amazing.
As a long-time D.Rose fan, I can't find a precise word to describe his 50 points game. Touching, amazing , incredible, blablabla. It's just difficult to describe the feeling exactly, it's amusingly bittering. What if he stayed healthy? That's just what I want from him, stay healthy and play. Thank you Andy, this is a great video that tells everyone how good D.Rose was, as it was really short.
Growing up in a country which basketball has never been a thing, I was an acid football (soccer) fan my whole life. Then somehow on 2015 i watched D-Rose's highlights on UA-cam randomly showed. Then i start to watch NBA a lot. Until now, i dont keep up with football again, its always basketball all day long. Rose will alwas be my favourite player of all time. I also named my son after him, Rose.
Thanks for this video, Andy. It was incredible to watch Rose (Not only to score 50 pts), but as you commented to watch him play this beautiful basketball at his age. So glad we saw it happen!
One of the best things to happen so far in this season. Respect this man from where he came from and what he had to endure to achieve what he did yesterday, a truly great player
2010-2011 was a good year for us Bulls fans, we got the 1st seed, D. Rose was the MVP.... but I gotta admit we did lose to the Big 3 of the Heat but still we've reached the ECF.
@@MattPawlowski I mean bro, If he can jump that high I'm pretty sure he can manage to fix something as trivial as landing on a single foot when coming down. Don't you agree?
I agree and have always said that Derrick Rose’s MVP season was the beginning of this dominant PG era that we’re in now. Guys like CP3, Nash, and A.I. came before but Drose was a different animal.
Realistically were looking at the best case for D Rose right now. He can give you at best in the right situation about 18 ppg., 5 reb., 5. asst. with about 25 to 30 min. on a nightly basis, which is great. This is going to have to be on a team where he is no higher than the third scoring option. Much like the roles of Tony Kukoc and Ron Harper during the Bulls last three titles in the 90's. Tony and Ron had been known as scorers before going to the Bulls (Ron with the Cavs and Clips/ Tony overseas) but would be no more than 3rd or 4th options with the Bulls, which was perfect for someone like Ron who had his own battles with injuries which effected his game a lot. Rose would be perfect on a team coming off the bench as a focused scorer during times where you want to rest your one or two option without losing to much on the offensive end. But he does best when the offense can flow through him, he just can't do it for 30 min plus anymore without risking injury. I would have liked to see him with the Lakers over Rondo backing up Lonzo or with a combo of him and Lonzo on the floor when Lebron is resting. The Lakers could have also used him with Lebron on the floor with Lebron playing off ball as well. I just hope the Wovles continue to use his talent once all their players are back and on the same page. I'm just happy for the guy but its bitter sweet because this would have probably been his last max deal years if he had been able to stay healthy during the last couple of years at least. Instead even if he does keep it up and get sixth man this year his max money days are over and that's a crime for a guy with as much talent and heart as this kid.
First thing i'm gonna say is he isn't the only one who got emotional at the end of the game. I wish the best for him. I hope he can make an All-Star team or win a 6th MOY award.
Rose's performance this year as a 6th man really puts into perspective the comments featured in your Allen Iverson video about "what kind of MVP comes off the bench?"
Funny story: I remember first wolves game this season he missed the floater and ppl tweeted "maybe dont put rose in crunch time" now he scored last 6 of 7 points for Wolves in the last minute. Damn
You forgot to mention how Derrick Rose didn't have the luxury of playing with another superstar for the majority of his career, like Westbrook, or another player who can run the offense like, James Harden, which also contributed to his injuries, since he had to overburden himself offensively.
Dang I still remember the day my dad took me to a bulls game and that game was the game where they handed him the mvp award. And at the end of the 2QT the bulls casually walked back to the locker room and I got Taj Gibbson and Derrick Rose himself ti sight my MJ bulls jersy. Dang that was memorable
Derrick Rose is for me, in a game where three-pointers matter most, a Form of resistance. What happens when 3-pointers are not going in?! You go closer. I see nowadays players in fastbreak steppin back and shoot 3s. IN A FASTBREAK!!! This is why Derrick Rose is still one of the most dedicated players in his basketball plays. Good to see him healthy and do what he does best.
*I'm not a T-wolves fan but I am a D. Rose fan, so I've been keeping track of his stats and game throughout this season. He's quietly been having a decently nice season, including a 30pt or so game that he had vs Dallas. He doesn't quite have the vertical that he had in 2011, but he can still finish at the basket, still moves extremely well laterally, and isn't afraid to attack. Hopefully he remains healthy and gets a huge confidence build off this game and we see a somewhat revival of D. Rose.*
Rose has mad heart! That trumps skill and everything else! All the injuries he’s endured and he’s still hooping at the NBA level? PLEASE!!!!! He’s an inspiration to anyone fighting an uphill battle
Casual fans have short memories. If you love the game, you know D Rose was a special kind of player. Top 1 PG all time is not even unthinkable. Imagine pre-injury D Rose playing with a 100% healthy Bulls? Mad respect.
Derrick Rose to me was a superhero (still is) every struggle rose went through felt like a dramatic climax in a comic book with the hero struggling but still making the heroic comeback and proving to the villain that he still has some fight in him. I’m that game i burst into tears seeing my hero my superhero Derrick Rose go off was just so amazing... a Derrick Rose once a fan always a fan...
I think it’s great that we saw a flashback of prime rose, but until after the next couple of games, that’s really all the game was, one game. I really want to see Derrick revive his career back to what it was, but I’ll have to see it next game to believe it
Rose's 50 point game I think was one of my most favourite NBA moments since I started watching in 2009. Honestly right up there with Dirk winning a championship (both are two of my all-time favourite players). It just felt like that game was like Derrick letting out a sigh of relief for all he's been through the past 6 years. It broke my heart seeing him get waived last season and it taking weeks to find a new team, but I'm happy that he's back to thriving with the Timberwolves. Side note, I think DSJ is the closest playstyle wise that we've seen to Rose. That being said I don't think he has the same ceiling.
I think alot of people forget how young he was and we never actually saw Rose's prime. Think of any other point guards or players in general who where putting up his stats, leading the top winning team in the league with not much help, and winning mvp. All just at 22 imagine how good who would be with maybe 5 more years and practice but with no injuries. I could easily see maybe the best point guard of all time.
Derrick Rose made me fall in love with the game of basketball when I was in middle school. I didn’t really care for sports, but my mom got my brother nba 2k14 for Christmas and decided to get a copy for me as well because I was honestly a no life gamer at the time. I was so trash that I ended up getting drafted by the Chicago bulls in the late first round. I didn’t know shit about the team besides the fact it was Michael Jordan’s old team and decided to look up their roster/highlights and I was absolutely amazed by what Derrick Rose was doing.
twolves just beat my lakers the other night but i was rooting for drose and his team tonight. im just so happy to see him play on a high level after everything he endured through out his career. much love for drose from the true nba fans around the world!
I wish Rose the very best. He is one of very few NBA players which make the game interesting to watch and to be taken seriously. I always hated the trend of step-back-3s and immobile giants dominating the league by trivializing this beautiful sport. But I guess it was just a matter of time. After all it is much easier to find a genetically gifted tall guy and drill him for high 3-point %ages than having real talents like Rose that do not only work their butts off all over the field but also bring high game iq, speed, athleticism and mobility and flawless dribble technique. The overall value of a player like Derrick Rose cannot be measured by unorganic numbers. It is almost like the fans can measure it intuitively infinitely better than any algorithm.
Really been having a tough time these last couple months. But honestly. This made me so f*cking happy. Hes been thru so much and I've followed him every step of the way. I'm just so happy for him and I hope he continues to flourish! #LongLiveDrose
His shooting game vs lakers last week with the energy and explosiveness moxed in from his first 3 years and a big IQ, thats what prime DRose would look like. 30+ppg 10ast, 10reb, 5blocks, 3 steals. Something like that probably with a 40% 3pt shot
Dsj was class off 2016 like me and we were in middle school at the time so most of us started watching the nba at that time and everyone was amazed with Drose and his shoes were popular
I have to say, the way he played down the stretch for us last year and even against Houston and now to start the season, he looks primed to win the 6th man award. He’s played well and is getting rewarded with a ton of minutes off the bench. Without the Butler drama, I think Rose would be a main talking point of the NBA this year, or at least the West.
@Paul Meras learn what the hell prime means before using your own dumb logic. A Prime player is one that is at their absolute best. You don't assume that they're going to be better than their early years because players like Tyreke Evans, Michael Carter Williams, and Brandon Jennings all had decreasing career numbers but they were entering their supposed Prime. Derrick Rose's Prime was definitely his MVP season whether you believe it or not. What is up with idiotic fans and their pointless what ifs? Who's to say Derrick wouldn't have fell off by the age 30? I know he wouldn't have but still. You can't assume when his absolute best will be.
Have fear in your hearts if D Rose goes back to the low fade lmao...Fuk the stats , that MVP season was legendary. Every possession, he was showtime, no lie.
I'm one of the people that believes LeBron deserved the MVP that year by almost every metric, but I also understand why Rose got it. There was a large bias against LeBron at the time, he was the villain. Rose took a not very good Bulls squad to the best record in the league, and in that sense he kinda embodied the most valuable player by definition
If Rose continues to play at this level (not 50 points, but 17+ a night off the bench), I think he will be in All-star consideration as soon as this season. Even though it's the West, I think narrative will play a huge role. I don't think he'll make it this year, but it will be similar to Lou Willaims' run last year. And even though that would be something I would die to see, I would rather have him put up solid numbers, ask for a buyout after the potential Butler trade, and sign with a contender like the Rockets or even the Spurs.
If he wasn't such a great point guard and didn't play his position to perfection like he did when he was in his prime and was solely focused on putting the basketball in the hoop he would have easily average 30 plus a game. Dude absolutely was a generational talent at that position in his prime. Such a same injuries and mental issues affected his game. Easily could be having the conversation of why he would is a top 10 player of all time if he didnt. But you can talk about what could've been all day sadly doesn't prove anything. Wish we could have seen him play his career out before the injuries
The truth is we never got to see a PRIME D Rose, he was injured for that entire period. He was young and still improving, and light years ahead of Westbrook, he was a legit point guard who understood the game, not an undersized 2 guard trying to play point
I am a fan of Derrick since he was high school. Man i just love him and the way he play. He inspired everytime I see him at the court. He is not over yet man. He is not the Prime Rose. He is already a mature man, knowing how to control himself throughout the game. He will never be the same again but still I am a solid D.Rose Fan 😁 #RoseforLife
Although I know when most people say "prime" Rose they mean when he was at the peak of his career to date, the crazy thing is that wasn't actually prime Rose. He never got to reach his prime. 22 years old and still a lot of learning to do and he carried that offense night in and night out despite no other playmakers on the team. The only real dangerous guy was Korver who was mainly a shooter off the bench.
One of the biggest what IF's For me he still didn't enter on his prime years or peak years, it's just a glimpse of what is coming once he age around 26-27 years old.. It's just a scratch to the surface.. But unfortunately we don't have a chance to witness the greatness of a rose that has been fully bloom already.
I always think what could have been with Derrick rose guy was special youngest MVP ever us bulls fans thought he was going to bring back championships but injuries plagued the guy nice to see him playing great again but he could and should have become a bulls legend
D Rose is my all time favorite PG and I’ve been hoping he had a game like this. I’ve never given up on him. And listen, he’s only 30, if he stays healthy and smart he can be an all star again. He’ll just have to avoid being high in the air and work on his shot
Actually we never witnessed D Rose's prime. The season he tore his ACL, the one after his MVP season...he was actually much improved player than his MVP season...And it was surely going uphill in upcoming seasons had it not been for his injuries.

You forgot to mention how Derrick Rose didn't have the luxury of playing with another superstar for the majority of his career, like Westbrook, or another player who can run the offense like, James Harden, which also contributed to his injuries, since he had to overburden himself offensively.
Dang I still remember the day my dad took me to a bulls game and that game was the game where they handed him the mvp award. And at the end of the 2QT the bulls casually walked back to the locker room and I got Taj Gibbson and Derrick Rose himself ti sight my MJ bulls jersy. Dang that was memorable
Derrick Rose is for me, in a game where three-pointers matter most, a Form of resistance. What happens when 3-pointers are not going in?! You go closer. I see nowadays players in fastbreak steppin back and shoot 3s. IN A FASTBREAK!!! This is why Derrick Rose is still one of the most dedicated players in his basketball plays. Good to see him healthy and do what he does best.
This made me cry. What a man. Mvp Derrick Rose
*I'm not a T-wolves fan but I am a D. Rose fan, so I've been keeping track of his stats and game throughout this season. He's quietly been having a decently nice season, including a 30pt or so game that he had vs Dallas. He doesn't quite have the vertical that he had in 2011, but he can still finish at the basket, still moves extremely well laterally, and isn't afraid to attack. Hopefully he remains healthy and gets a huge confidence build off this game and we see a somewhat revival of D. Rose.*
Anybody that likes basketball should love D Rose, that game was insane and he was playing his heart out. I love seeing that stuff happen.
Rose has mad heart! That trumps skill and everything else! All the injuries he’s endured and he’s still hooping at the NBA level? PLEASE!!!!! He’s an inspiration to anyone fighting an uphill battle
He also has one of the most iconic Adidas shoes (or shoe franchise) ever. I still remember his commercial, smirk while spinning D'Rose 1.
Casual fans have short memories. If you love the game, you know D Rose was a special kind of player. Top 1 PG all time is not even unthinkable. Imagine pre-injury D Rose playing with a 100% healthy Bulls? Mad respect.
Derrick Rose to me was a superhero (still is) every struggle rose went through felt like a dramatic climax in a comic book with the hero struggling but still making the heroic comeback and proving to the villain that he still has some fight in him. I’m that game i burst into tears seeing my hero my superhero Derrick Rose go off was just so amazing... a Derrick Rose once a fan always a fan...
I think it’s great that we saw a flashback of prime rose, but until after the next couple of games, that’s really all the game was, one game. I really want to see Derrick revive his career back to what it was, but I’ll have to see it next game to believe it
Rose's 50 point game I think was one of my most favourite NBA moments since I started watching in 2009. Honestly right up there with Dirk winning a championship (both are two of my all-time favourite players). It just felt like that game was like Derrick letting out a sigh of relief for all he's been through the past 6 years. It broke my heart seeing him get waived last season and it taking weeks to find a new team, but I'm happy that he's back to thriving with the Timberwolves.
Side note, I think DSJ is the closest playstyle wise that we've seen to Rose. That being said I don't think he has the same ceiling.
im voting derrick rose for the all star game, whos with me?
He's not prime anymore, people in their prime go to all star game be realistic
It’s sad because he never got to his prime he was still learning and getting better....damn injuries
He should be in the HOF
Lars Roodakker he’ll get in off the mvp alone if tmac is in then there’s no excuse not to have rose in there lol
For 1 season? Nah
No he shouldn't and he won't.
Daniel Butcher we will he was the youngest mvp of all time
I think alot of people forget how young he was and we never actually saw Rose's prime. Think of any other point guards or players in general who where putting up his stats, leading the top winning team in the league with not much help, and winning mvp. All just at 22 imagine how good who would be with maybe 5 more years and practice but with no injuries. I could easily see maybe the best point guard of all time.
I was literally crying when DRose was hopping like his old self 😢🌹
D rose' story is heart breaking. Seeing how hard he played and tried while his body just refused to cooperate still makes me sad.
Derrick Rose made me fall in love with the game of basketball when I was in middle school. I didn’t really care for sports, but my mom got my brother nba 2k14 for Christmas and decided to get a copy for me as well because I was honestly a no life gamer at the time. I was so trash that I ended up getting drafted by the Chicago bulls in the late first round. I didn’t know shit about the team besides the fact it was Michael Jordan’s old team and decided to look up their roster/highlights and I was absolutely amazed by what Derrick Rose was doing.
twolves just beat my lakers the other night but i was rooting for drose and his team tonight. im just so happy to see him play on a high level after everything he endured through out his career. much love for drose from the true nba fans around the world!
I teared up seeing his performance D.Rose cursed by the basketball gods it was great to see the prime Rose again hopefully we see more of it
I wish Rose the very best. He is one of very few NBA players which make the game interesting to watch and to be taken seriously. I always hated the trend of step-back-3s and immobile giants dominating the league by trivializing this beautiful sport. But I guess it was just a matter of time. After all it is much easier to find a genetically gifted tall guy and drill him for high 3-point %ages than having real talents like Rose that do not only work their butts off all over the field but also bring high game iq, speed, athleticism and mobility and flawless dribble technique. The overall value of a player like Derrick Rose cannot be measured by unorganic numbers. It is almost like the fans can measure it intuitively infinitely better than any algorithm.
Really been having a tough time these last couple months. But honestly. This made me so f*cking happy. Hes been thru so much and I've followed him every step of the way. I'm just so happy for him and I hope he continues to flourish! #LongLiveDrose
His shooting game vs lakers last week with the energy and explosiveness moxed in from his first 3 years and a big IQ, thats what prime DRose would look like. 30+ppg 10ast, 10reb, 5blocks, 3 steals. Something like that probably with a 40% 3pt shot
being an MVP candidate isn't just based on stats i think.....maybe it's how you change the game and having that perseverance like Drose🥀🌹
Dude! Rose just TURNED 30. Dont let his body fool u. Him Curry Kd Westbrook Harding and are same age. He is still young
Dsj was class off 2016 like me and we were in middle school at the time so most of us started watching the nba at that time and everyone was amazed with Drose and his shoes were popular
I have to say, the way he played down the stretch for us last year and even against Houston and now to start the season, he looks primed to win the 6th man award. He’s played well and is getting rewarded with a ton of minutes off the bench. Without the Butler drama, I think Rose would be a main talking point of the NBA this year, or at least the West.
So god damn happy for him to drop 50. I've been his biggest fan since I first saw him play in HS.
Next should be Brandon Roy
Verner Novitzki He’s too fat to play
Verner Novitzki Kobe said he was the toughest defender he played against
@@HookandBookinc nope kobe said he was the best scorer , no way in hell brandon roy is the best defender
Seeing Andy Hoops in actual video is more surprising than D' Rose career high haha
Prime Rose was top 3 or 5 player in the league best PG for sure..
@Paul Meras learn what the hell prime means before using your own dumb logic. A Prime player is one that is at their absolute best. You don't assume that they're going to be better than their early years because players like Tyreke Evans, Michael Carter Williams, and Brandon Jennings all had decreasing career numbers but they were entering their supposed Prime. Derrick Rose's Prime was definitely his MVP season whether you believe it or not. What is up with idiotic fans and their pointless what ifs? Who's to say Derrick wouldn't have fell off by the age 30? I know he wouldn't have but still. You can't assume when his absolute best will be.
@Paul Meras How about you give it a try first since obviously you don't know what the definition of "prime" is or how to spell "you're"
Have fear in your hearts if D Rose goes back to the low fade lmao...Fuk the stats , that MVP season was legendary. Every possession, he was showtime, no lie.
I'm one of the people that believes LeBron deserved the MVP that year by almost every metric, but I also understand why Rose got it. There was a large bias against LeBron at the time, he was the villain. Rose took a not very good Bulls squad to the best record in the league, and in that sense he kinda embodied the most valuable player by definition
I came back here after the Knicks finally reached playoffs once again with Rose being a big help off the bench.
2010-2011 season was the best season in his career, it was fantastic
One of my top 5 favorite players ✊💪🌹
Been a sub since 22k crazy how much you’ve grown
Big fan of d rose. I still model my 2k player after him to this day. Glad to see him play like his old days
He aint over 30. he IS 30. Get it right
Don't get butthurt, calm done dude
The show goes on Derrick Rose. You left a legacy
If Rose continues to play at this level (not 50 points, but 17+ a night off the bench), I think he will be in All-star consideration as soon as this season. Even though it's the West, I think narrative will play a huge role. I don't think he'll make it this year, but it will be similar to Lou Willaims' run last year. And even though that would be something I would die to see, I would rather have him put up solid numbers, ask for a buyout after the potential Butler trade, and sign with a contender like the Rockets or even the Spurs.
If he wasn't such a great point guard and didn't play his position to perfection like he did when he was in his prime and was solely focused on putting the basketball in the hoop he would have easily average 30 plus a game. Dude absolutely was a generational talent at that position in his prime. Such a same injuries and mental issues affected his game. Easily could be having the conversation of why he would is a top 10 player of all time if he didnt. But you can talk about what could've been all day sadly doesn't prove anything. Wish we could have seen him play his career out before the injuries
When you're in high school and everyone talks about this guy *every single game he plays* you know this guy was good...
Rose for 6MOY, MIP, and All Star! Lets go
The truth is we never got to see a PRIME D Rose, he was injured for that entire period. He was young and still improving, and light years ahead of Westbrook, he was a legit point guard who understood the game, not an undersized 2 guard trying to play point
I am a fan of Derrick since he was high school.
Man i just love him and the way he play. He inspired everytime I see him at the court.
He is not over yet man. He is not the Prime Rose. He is already a mature man, knowing how to control himself throughout the game. He will never be the same again but still I am a solid D.Rose Fan 😁
#RoseforLife
It’s hard to believe Mo Williams hold the franchise record for points in a game for the wolves with 52
Had Derrick Rose never suffered a major injury, he’d go down as a top 10 point guard of all time. Possibly top 5 too
D.rose also was a great defender his mvp season. His offense and being a great 2 way player won him the mvp.
Although I know when most people say "prime" Rose they mean when he was at the peak of his career to date, the crazy thing is that wasn't actually prime Rose. He never got to reach his prime. 22 years old and still a lot of learning to do and he carried that offense night in and night out despite no other playmakers on the team. The only real dangerous guy was Korver who was mainly a shooter off the bench.
One of the biggest what IF's
For me he still didn't enter on his prime years or peak years, it's just a glimpse of what is coming once he age around 26-27 years old.. It's just a scratch to the surface.. But unfortunately we don't have a chance to witness the greatness of a rose that has been fully bloom already.
This Point God never reached his prime!! hopefully he now could get there
Rose absolutely still has 100% of the talent in him. It’s just that his body probably can’t harness it consistently anymore.
Honestly, this shouldn't even be a video. He was really, really good, like top 3 pg good
I always think what could have been with Derrick rose guy was special youngest MVP ever us bulls fans thought he was going to bring back championships but injuries plagued the guy nice to see him playing great again but he could and should have become a bulls legend
I wanna flex now: I have watched the game live in my damn classroom. Best game I've ever watched.
D Rose is my all time favorite PG and I’ve been hoping he had a game like this. I’ve never given up on him. And listen, he’s only 30, if he stays healthy and smart he can be an all star again. He’ll just have to avoid being high in the air and work on his shot
Actually we never witnessed D Rose's prime. The season he tore his ACL, the one after his MVP season...he was actually much improved player than his MVP season...And it was surely going uphill in upcoming seasons had it not been for his injuries.
