Let's discuss the implication of Rose's injury and his play after recovery

I think with a torn acl, especially to a player so reliant on athleticism like Rose, he will never be able to recover to the type of player he was before. And because 80% of Rose's game is athleticism, he will probably be pretty bad when he comes back.

Bulls eye.

well said.

ACL tear is career altering injury. Rose will go the Grant Hill route. Unfortunately, for Hill, he couldn't secure MVP before injury like Rose did which wasnt really earned.

I hate Rose's game the most. He leaps & jumps unnecessarily way too much & he paid the ultimate price for that today.

Rose career wise will at best be 65% player of his MVP season from here on. Athleticism will be reduced.

He may suffer from unstable knee or Knee giving out despite full recovery.

RIP Bulls Franchise.

Mr. Rose better hire a good PT. He will never be the same again. His numbers and overall impact might decline next season because he relies on his athletic ability.

Nah, they still have a solid team and a great coach. They just need to find a new star to go to chicago, which they most certainly will.

it's going to be heartbreaking to see future westbrook vs rose match ups, where once rose was the better player, westbrook will be the superior here after

You know this also applies to lebron also right?

I cant beieve im about to say this as a fan of rose ever since he was in simeon, but its true. This seriously changes the outcome of his career. Sad day for fans of NBA.

[Lebron23]

Russel Westbrook will have a better career than post injury Rose.

Didn't Blake Griffin tear his ACL his rookie year so it's not the end of the world in terms of Rose's athleticism

Lebron is one freak of nature though, his body handle his athleticism, the same thing can't be said for Rose.

Nope. He injured his kneecap. Torn ACL is worse.

Rose is 23, so that alone means he can come back with great doctors. He will need to pace himself all a Rondo. Rondo used to dunk on guys every game, but lately Rondo paces himself.

Lets hope he improves his shot
