I've had this huge feeling that Derrick Rose could end up like Penny hardaway..

These type of injuries make you lose speed. Rose depends so much on his speed, that's what makes him the player that he is!! The moment he went down I knew right away what the consequences would be.. I hope I'm wrong, I really do, but when he comes back, you guys think some of his speed will be gone?? will he end up like Penny and just be a shadow of his formal self?? :snoop:

I mean, God blessed us when he spared Jordan's career with that foot injury, but which injury was worse? Jordan's or Rose's??? I hope for the sake of my team he pulls through and is back to form! :sadbron:

When rose returns he needs to play like chris paul to be a successful pg and maximize the bulls potential

All that pogo stick hoppin around,doing difficult lay ups and throwing up runners while falling out of bounds should be over

Penny was something special. I remember watching and the talk was the "Air Apparent" to MJ since MJ just retired. Penny was special.

Penny's situation was kinda different though. For one he had microfracture surgery. He was also one of the first to ever get the surgery, so the recovery timetable wasn't as concrete as it is now. Coming back as soon as he did probably fukked him up more than the actual injury

Dude tried to come back within 2 months off an operation that keeps players now out from 6 months to year.

yea, ive been thinking this for a year now.

rose been getting hurt alot lately. and he is to this era, what penny was to my age group when we were young bucks coming up in the game.

but he'll be cool as long as he doesnt continue to get hurt. cuz i also came in here to post this:

Derick Rose did have all kinds of injuries last year before finally going down for good...Frazier

Honestly Nate Robinson and Kirk Hinrich have held it down better then anybody expected. I dont think Rose shoots as well as those two do :skip:
