re: Rose skips Bulls practice . . . Reports of a rift

I've never said anything of the sort. I think Rose needs to nut up and at least give it a shot this season...and stop crying at press conferences

he blew out his knee in non-contact play. what does that tell us? the muscles and tendons that support ACL were not strong enough to support it already.

what has DRose come out and said playing in practices and doing full contacts with the Bulls?

he is fine to play during, but afterwards his hamstrings and quads are on fire and soar. what does that tell us? the same supporting structure of his ACL before the injury are still not where they need to be.

what motivation would he have to lie about that? what is another 30 days of conditioning and strengthening in comparison to the length of his career if he is healthy?


but i agree in the fact that he needs to stay out of the press or away from the camera and reporters, until he is 100% ready to walk on the court and play.
it is no ones business outside of Derrick Rose and Bulls Management.
