Derrick Rose to Undergo Surgery for Torn Meniscus in Right Knee *Surgery Successful 4-6 Week Return*

[Liquid]

It's all those hard jump stops with lateral movement that he does, Russ doesn't do them and really when you look around the league the only other person that does is Wiggins

Wiggins does do those very sharp cuts, but not as violent as Rose.

It hurt ME sometimes watching Rose jump and cut the way he was during his MVP caliber seasons. I almost felt like it was inevitable that his knee would pop out, that's how hard he was cutting.

Before cats go crazy w/ the Rose smiley, this really isn't funny and is pretty fukking sad.
Rose is a no nonsense, hardworking player that's seeing his body fail him.

I'm older than a lot of cats in here and this reminds me of Penny and Grant Hill.
Beast players whose bodies robbed them and us of potential greatness.

I hope Rose can mentally and physically recover soon.

Larry Johnson too.

Never got the vibe DRose even came close to fully recovering.

he's already decided to have the longer surgery.. he's out 6-9 months

That was the first time, maybe he might choose a different route.. I doubt it though

man, it really depends on the player. cuz as we see drose falling apart, rusty westbrook is doing the same shyt with reckless abandon to this day with no ill effects of knee surgery.

I was on the phone w/this broad I'm kicking it with and I saw my boy had sent me a text. I just brushed it off and didn't even bother to read it until after i got off the phone.

So I get off the phone and read his msg and he's like "Rose is DONE! I'm like WTF this nicca talkin bout, Bulls didn't even play tonight and Rose just been in a shooting slump the last couple games. So I text my boy on some, "nah, he just having a bad streak, he'll be aiight"
and as soon as that text was sent, I turn to ESPN and see the news

fukk man, officially our generations penny/grant hill.

Nope.

Never looked like he would be better than LeBron and KD. Westbrook and clearly CP3 always looked like the better bets.
