I don't see the point in coming back "early" or in the tail end of the season. You're not in game shape, you got to play yourself into shape. If the team doesn't win, you gonna get the blame unless you are Jordan then a bunch of excuses will be made. I'm talking #45 retirement Jordan before u c*nts talk about 80's Jordan return.

Hmmmm...come back rusty for the playoffs and possibly risk reinjury in a season where we won't win the championship anyway, or miss the series, continue rehab till I'm confident and EXTEND MY CAREER AND MONEY??

Seems like an easy decision to me.

Once your acl is 100% healed why would it randomly get hurt again :whoo: I thought it was a fine

:comeon: Rose would have gotten the excuses that you just mentioned. Everyone woulda been "hes rusty" "they didnt have time to gel" if the bulls got bounced by bkn. There was no way Rose would get any negative press if he came back and they lost

If I'm a bulls fan I don't want my franchise player coming back from an acl injury in feb-march and being forced to be the man and lead them through a deep playoff run. I want him fresh and 100% for 2013-14.

Can't compare this to Lin because Lins injury wasn't that serious, and he was a fake ass star who didn't pay the dues to sit out a playoff game.

If rose still isnt ready by next season I'll change my tune but right now I'm on his side on this.

He's been cleared since fukkin februsry. This isnt a case were hes had some setbacks or soreness or whatever, nikkas been good to go for months.

Also lol so if he had led them on a playoff run he wouldnt have been fresh for the next season 5 months later?

Sitting on your ass and not even attempting to come back isn't gonna lessen the odds of you getting hurt on a random November night against the Bobcats.

It would be one thing if Rose came back on a strict minutes limit just to see where he is. It wasn't gonna cost the Bulls a playoff spot. If it cost the Bulls a playoff seed it woulda been from 5 to 6 which actually would allow them to avoid Miami, and if Rose still wasn't comfortable, everyone would understand a lot more because he at least tried to see where he was. Instead that dude's dunking, shooting around, doing whatever and then he's in a suit.

He'll never know until he's out there in some form. Now instead of at least seeing where he is in terms of mental confidence, that shyt will haunt him all summer and dog him throughout training camp, and on top of that, his teammates who have been banged up all season probably respect him a lot less.

Anyone else catch that vodka commercial they aired during the Bulls game with the white guy doing a voiceover before performing a concert? Hes like "The last thing you want to be is a coward. You dont want anyone out there thinking that youre scared to go out there and perform..."

Felt like it was some subliminal ether for Rozay :youngsabo:

Who would kill Rose for trying to come back late in the season and still not feel he's 100%? Coming back from a major injury, playing yourself into NBA shape is part of the process.
