Irving has been a little too injury-prone for my tastes his first two seasons. It's smart to shut him down if he's hurt, but it's not a good sign if an athletic point guard is going to get hurt several times a season and potentially not play when the team needs him. :rose1
I don't believe the Nuggets are as bad as their road record might indicate. They just started the season off with a ridiculous amount of road games which probably had them tired and fatigued in each game as most long road trips do.

The only difference is that one is a true shooter while the other relies far more on his athletic ability. Kyrie would be fine if he lost some of his athletic touch, the same can't be said for Rose until he develops a shot.
So he is allowed to play, but won't? Come on Derrick. Part of rehab is playing in games. That's your next step. Play in games. So play in some damn games before the playoffs.
The Bulls only have like 20 games left, he doesn't have that much time.
At this point he can either play the final 20 or so games and rehab or just sit out the season. And at the direction he's going, the latter is more likely.
sitting out the season would only solidify what I've been saying about him the last 2 years. TMAC HAS RISEN FROM CHINA AND PLACED HIS SOUL IN THE YOUNG DERRICK ROSE.
nuggets are interesting to watch. they're not particularly good at anything(besides being uptempo), but they're a great team, at the moment at least. i liked how mcgee handled himself during the interview with inside the nba, he wasn't gonna put shaq over.

he NBA and National Basketball Players Association are close to an agreement to test the blood of players for human growth hormone, according to sources.
Testing for HGH could begin as soon as the 13-14 NBA season.
NBA players are currently subject to six urine tests a year, two of which occur in the offseason.
Staff attorney Ron Klempner is directing the union on an interim basis. Sources insist HGH testing can proceed regardless, and the union can and will implement HGH tests before resolving its leadership issues.
David Stern expressed optimism at the All-Star Game that HGH testing would soon be agreed upon.
Dwight is a bonafide idiot and any of the derogatory statements he makes should be discredited. I really want Jameer, JJ, Rashard, or someone else to come out and just ROAST him, but they're not classless enough to stoop down to the dumb n!gger's level.
Gibson, Noah, Deng, Hamilton, and Hinrich among others have all been dinged up and hurt this season. Some of them have put off surgery this season for the good of the team. Some of them are playing near 40 minutes a night to help the team win. No one is 100%. Rose needs to come back.
All you've said was a bunch of bullshit about Rose being the next T-Mac which still to this day isn't true. T-Mac is a guy who got injured every year, had no work ethic and couldn't lead his team past the 1st round.
This was Rose's first serious injury and he's hesitant on coming back due to him not wanting to get re-injured and him wanting to return playing at the same level as before the injury.
If Rose is healthy and isn't playing because of lack of faith in his teammates or just because he is a giant pussy, I will have lost all respect for him. Now that he is cleared to play, he needs to get his ass on the court.
if you really believe that bullshit about not wanting to come back due to getting re-injured then you really do need to get off his dick. He's been cleared and has had plenty of time to recover.
I don't fully believe anything. I'm just aware that recovering from an injury is both physical and mental. Just because Rose may be physically ready, doesn't mean he's mentally ready.
Labeling himself as this generation's T-Mac is still stupid regardless.
If that's the case, then he is just a giant pussy and not someone I'd want as the leader of my team. A leader of a team should be mentally tough and have a killer instinct. What he shouldn't be is scared to take the court after the injury has healed.
I am not ready to crucify him just yet though. Before all this happened, I liked Derrick Rose. It could be that this is the media blowing things out of proportion. It could be that he will be back on the court in the next week or two and playing like a true leader should be. If he does, then this is just all talk and will be forgotten. But if he continues to sit out when he could be helping his team...
It's still early March and he's been cleared to play. What happens next will go a long ways towards people's opinion about him.
Quick, switch the title of the thread to "T-Mac > Rose. Bulls = Scorned" So I can flip out over a joke title and start posting one-sided facts while ignoring the rest. :side:
