QUESTION: Why is Derrick Rose hyped up so much....

[jwinfield]

A lot of good points made in this thread. I'll agree, Rose got most hype because he's in a way the anti Lebron. His rise was timed perfect because it coincided with the Lebron hate. So the NBA wanted him to be the poster boy.

 

[Goat poster]

He is the best player in the league. Only player I think LeBron fears.

Please explain what makes him better than Bron?


Or even Durant for that matter?

Rose > Iverson

Better Volume Shooter and Scorer
More Clutch
Not Even Close in Athleticism
Better Leader
Better Teammate
Playing in a Tougher Era in the East.
Can Finish Better
Can Drive Better
Better Body, which allows him to attack the basket more ferociously

I dont recall Kobe or Jordan ever praising Iverson's game

 

[Ready2Rhyme]

If we're talking about the young AI who was allowed to keep his handle > Rose

But under recent NBA dribbling rules it's Rose > AI without a doubt

*Asks why Rose is hyped up so much*

*Gives reasons why he's hyped so much*

When they don't even think OUT the hate, there's only one smiley for that:

 

[Oroko Saki]

Steph Marbury was the best true point guard out of all them just going by skills

"You D Rose with the free throws...."

 

[ManBearPig]

being compared to Iverson is a bad thing?


knowing that Rose actually like practices

Draft combine had a vert of 36.5. 40

In the combine, they didn't account for the difference in testicular density and mass, cause they just didn't know back in them days..........
