People forget that Rose is only 24. Also, this ain't 1990 when Tim Hardaway had to miss an entire season for an ACL injury. Ya'll see what AD is doing, and he's a RUNNING BACK!

Just because he's practicing doesn't mean he's gonna be playing by January. He's still slated for a February return, which would be about 9 months since the surgery, 10 since the injury.

Yo, anyone have the gif of this? When LeGoat was jumping around acting wild and Rose was straight DISGUSTED by the events? That shyt had me :deadrose:

Anyways, he seems like a decent dude. I wish him the best of luck. The bulls being competent would really make the east a lot more interesting.

Here's the thing, while football is more violent, non contact injuries are a lot more prevalent in basketball than they are in football because of the surface they play on. All that grip on the floor + bottom of their shoes puts an ungodly amount of stress on someones ligaments, and for a dude that cuts & plays as hard as Rose, taking as much time as possible would be wise.

If he makes it back then great for him. I can see him playing in Feb. if the Bulls are around .500 and he is truly healthy.

All I'm saying is if he's 100% healed in 8 months, what since does it make to wait longer than that? I mean, of course you must get back in basketball shape, that's a given, but sitting out the entire year doesn't make sense to me...unless your argument is he won't be 100% by then.

Personally.. I want him to get burn this season. I dont want his first game back opening night next season, he needs to build that confidence back this season. They just need to limit his minutes and let him get a feel for it again.

I don't think he will be 100% healthy, this is typically a 18 month injury in basketball, meaning dudes won't start to look like themselves for almost 2 years if ever. They're going to bring him back and push for the playoffs, they have zero shot at the title, if I were going to bring him back it would be for the last 20 games of the season and then shut him down regardless of if they make the playoffs or not.

This is the franchise player, no need to rush him back.
