Derrick Rose: Knicks being put in same 'super team' class as Warriors

[BedStuy]

I must say, it's funny to see those that were Rose fans completely switch up and shit on him. :lol: :smirk:

Niggas in Chicago were done with him when the whole team was injured in the playoffs and this dude on the bench in a suit when he was cleared for months to come back. That boy was jumping up and down on that knee but was steady saying he's not ready

I thought y'all still was okay with him being on the team before the trade. He was playing okay and getting back to form after the all star break.

I must say, it's funny to see Knick fans really become the biggest Derrick Rose capes overnight.

I thought he was decent on the bulls. Never hated the bulls.

Those knee injuries gave him CTE.

ive always felt rose injuries did as much damage to his mind as his body

rose wore so little leg compression stuff in 09

now he looks like hes wearing catchers gear

all those damn braces might be part of the problem

i was told that they make you weaker as they dont make your smaller muscles fire

i thought it was all bullshit until recently i read tim grover also thinks so

he thinks he wears too much stuff on his legs when he plays

Grover recalled a conversation he had with Rose back in summer 2011, when during the NBA lockout, he was in the Philippines to play in a charity basketball game on a trip that also included Bryant. Grover referenced how Rose’s lower body looked like it was wrapped up like a "mummy," which Grover believed could eventually lead to injury.

"Derrick did a charity game in the Philippines, and I went down there with Kobe during that time," Grover said. "I had a little conversation with Derrick, and I said, ‘Derrick, listen, you’ve got your ankles wrapped up, you’ve got your knees wrapped up, you’ve got all this compression stuff.’ I said, ‘You’re putting too much pressure on certain joints because they’re not being allowed to move.’ And I know I said, ‘Listen, you’re an athlete and I’ve never seen anybody that explosive to be able to move that quickly.’ But I said, ‘The joints have to be free in order to absorb all that force.’

I had this conversation with him way before the injury part.
