Joakim Noah tells Derrick Rose critics to "shut up!"

[QUOTE=Sarcastic]I think the biggest problem people have with Rose is his vagueness about the whole thing. If he came out and said "I will be back for 2013-2014 season", people would be fine with that. Because he is leaving the door open for a return this season, people are questioning him. People like firm answers. They don't like wishy-washy. Same reason Dwight got so much flack last year. It's the whole "will he or won't he" thing all over again.[/QUOTE]

No.

Doctors cleared him. It is not a physical issue, it is a mental issue, therefore, he is psychologically weak, which is frowned upon in the world of sports.

Boxers, football players, MMA, etc. all risk a concussion when they go out and fight their battles, so why is Rose all of a sudden so special when his weak a*s is too scared of a little contact around the rim? No excuses. If you can play, you play. [B]This is a man's sport.[/B] This aint Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya sisterhood.

Some of these posters are just retarded. One day, you kids might grow up.

[QUOTE=Real Men Wear Green]A lot more people care what he thinks than care what you think.[/QUOTE]

They're best friends, of course he is going to stand up for his "brother." His opinion is moot. I'm sure Rose cares about what his fans think about him; without their support, he is nothing.

bet half the clowns in this thread even play ball. Just key board warriors, trying to act tough and like their opinions matters. Rose will come back when ready, now especially is the wrong time because hes obv not been playing with the team and can have some rust in a playoff atmosphere where its all on the line. The teams playing fine, let them ride it out. THis was their season, next hell be a part of it.

His opinion is being discussed and praised by people that don't even share it on ESPN. Yours is getting half-read on a topic with a few hundred views. Keep it in perspective.

LMAO yes I'm sure Rose cares more about what fans think then his teammates.



He is dying to hear your opinion and analysis on why he should come back.

Everyone should shut up.

When he returns and starts owning the league again everyone will be all over him even though they did nothing but ride him while he recovered his knee.

D rose loves the game, he ain't tryna coast, he tryna do his thing, the right way.

Everyone hating on him in Chicago should gtfo, just terrible people. If you hate on him and don't live here, your opinion means nothing. Rose plays for Chicago, not you flaming fakkits.

See what I mean? A Rose supporter is dancing around a confrontation by not directly addressing the person he is insulting.

Rose's weak mentality is already spreading like a virus. Seriously guys, this sport aint for you if you're afraid of a little contact. You should go play ping pong, at least the only thing flying at your face is a ball, which I'm pretty sure you're used to it during sex.

Way to be picky with who you quote. Only to fit your agenda.



And you wanna say a Rose supporter avoids confrontation when you do it yourself.

You're not a real person to most of us. Just a hater in the dark thinking you are rambo. More cartoonish than anything else.

Shut up Noah, nobody gives a sh*t about your stupid opinion. [/QUOTE]

So tell us who you heard from on the team or in the organization that you base your ill-informed decisions on. Can you name anyone? You are basically on the outside taking opinions from others on message boards. That's why its hard to say you are a real person. You follow the thoughts of others to the point that we can't see your originality or beyond your simple hater functions.

Only a doctor can say its not a physical issue. Where is that doctor? There are three doctors paid by the organization that pays Rose 120 million yet not one of them or the organization speaks out against Rose. About 75 people are tight in their unanimous response and they don't have to be. But there are plenty of sheep on the outside that think their opinions is what is important.

Big Rose fan, but Rose has hurt himself.


Don't tell me you're all the way healthy, but just not mentally ready to play or your muscle memory won't allow you to play like you were...so you don't want to play.

This is about his "expectations" he wants to look like MVP Rose. I would have all the respect in the world for him, if he played 20 minutes as a jumpshooter of the bench or something. Joakim is being a good friend, and I'd say the same things if I were on the team, but if I'm on a team that's good enough to win a title and I'm the best player and healthy enough to play.....YOU PLAY. You never know when you'll get this opportunity again. His reasoning for not playing just doesn't really fly to me in this situation.

I mean you have the opportunity to walk off the street and play the Heat....any player in the world and any former player would kill for the chance to be out there, and this guy only has to say "I'm Ready" and he has the chance.

If he has something else going on...fine. But if you are just giving yourself extra time....I don't get it. This story would not be a big deal if he'd have just said a long time ago that he's out for the year, people would've forgotten about him really until he was ready. If he still says it, it would help him.

Mentally not ready? WTF is that?

Rose a jump shooting specialist? :roll: Like Noah said

[SIZE="5"][B]SHUT UP![/B][/SIZE]

dude brought it on himself with a year long marketing campaign in which he and adidas profited IMO...

People were rightly expecting to see him on the floor anytime between the all-star break and now.

He's not playing, what else does he have to do? He supposedly has developed a great jumper.


But regardless of that, if hes' practicing and is the best player on the floor, he should be playing. Shooting or defending or whatever.
