yeah give him a full year off. it's ok he won't be the first superstar to miss an entire year. he will need at least 8 months to rehab to physically repair the damage but he will also need a few more months to get mentally right. he will be thinking about that injury everytime he jump stomps on that leg. give him a full year to get right physically/mentally. A 80% rose isn't beating miami next year anyway.
yea, so the 1st preseason game in the year 2013 october 15th, rose tears another ligament....then what?
the guy is getting paid to play, he needs to play, cuddling him wont protect him from nothing.
if the front office puts the right type of role players around rose they can compete next season. if the bulls grabbed and maintained the 1st seed and best record in the league with cj watson, brewer, korver and john lucas the damn 3rd, im sure they can cut them and get better role players who will look like diamonds in thibs system.
all this tanking talk is nonsense.
