Rose claims no pressure to return from organization

[Street Knowledge]

Derrick Rose spoke at length with reporters on Tuesday, briefing them on where he stands in his return from a repaired ACL.

"I’m waiting to that day where I feel normal," Rose said. "Until then, I will just wait. I haven’t had any pressure from the organization."

Rose hasn't had any setbacks, but he doesn't know if he will play this season.

"When I’m out there not thinking and just reacting, that’s how I know I’ll be ready."

Rose was initially targeting a return in mid-March.

"I don’t have a (return) date, to tell you the truth. I’m just taking my time. I haven’t taken any steps back. I’m getting stronger every day. I did every workout possible. The workouts are getting a lot easier. I’m moving in the right direction."

rose is lying. here are the facts:

1. the bulls leaked the story that he's medically cleared
2. dude's been cleared for a month now and the bulls stayed quiet to let him get ready to come back on his own timetable
3. the bulls leaked the story he's been cleared cuz they are tired of waiting on him to take the next step in his rehab which is playing

that story leaking, that video of him working out is all someone on the inside of the front office throwing rose under the bus

and they are totally out of line for this shyt

first off they come into the season with they mouth pieces kc johnson and friedell selling the fanbase on this being a throw away season and them not able to make significant moves because they are strapped financially with the tax

they end up paying the tax so it boils down to a failure of the front office to produce a quality roster and having to pay the price for mismanagement.

but what once was a "throw away" season is now becoming a "need to get playoff revenue" season so jerry can cash out and that tax dont hurt him as much.

so in turn they want to throw rose under the bus so he can be pressured to come back so jerry can cash out.

ticks me off cause i been saying from the start of the season if this a throw away season just scrap the roster and start over and let rose sit the year. or 2nd option put some legit pieces around rose, take the tax and have him come back to a squad that wont put so much on his healing knee

the front office does neither, they totally mismanage this whole season, and now want rose to come back as the last ditch effort to make this season profitable and salvageable for them.

if this a throw away season as kc and others have sold us and said it was, whats the harm of rose sitting out if he wants to? especially if he has legitimate concerns on his well being?

i really cant believe the organization wouldnt stand tall with him when already rose has maybe made triple for the organization what they have paid him in merchandising and ticket sales. its flat out dirty to throw him under the bus like this.

i could see the point to turn against him if i could see he not attacking his rehab and came back flabby and slow

but he looks conditioned, in shape, like he is going hard at his rehab he just getting to the last part of it. let him do him. he goes out there timid getting abused by mediocre comp that will hurt him more mentally and then he really runs the risk of re injuring himself cause he playing too timid

they just mad his brother/agent called them out.

The bulls are a bunch of slimy crackas.They throwing rose under the bus and I believe it's cuz they felt some kinda way about reggies comments and to get the gullible sheep to cop those playoffs tickets now.Cuz if fans know rose aint playin they aint payin dough to watch hinrich and marco bellineli in no playoffs

At the same time Rose is p*ssy.This dude won't play cuz "I can't dunk off my left knee" just shows how he can't be effective without dunking the ball.

He's gotta get over this mental hurdle. I think he has the ability to be effective on the court but I don't think he believes it. And it might take the entire season for that to happen. Four things could happen.


1. He could come back and contribute with no problems

2. He can be tentative on his knee and not be as productive as you would like and you would still bash him.

3. He could go all out on his knee and be who he once was.

4. He could go all out on his knee and tear it up again.

This season is a wash. Just be patient.

Only way to get over the mental hurdle is Playing in games.Rose can come back playin at 90%(not health but effort) instead of 100 and gradually get his rhythm,timing,speed of the game back.There's no excuse for son not to be playing now.Bulls aint going no where with or without rose this year he should play to get over this mental hurdle that seems to be affecting him more than anybody else who ever tore an acl

why even respond when logical thinking obviously isn't his strongsuit. AP playing once a week no consistent cutting with breaks shyt aint comparable at all. I by no means am shytting on what he did but those are the facts.

One thing you learn in medecine is to treat every case differently. Every case is unique. Regardless if your familiarity with the body part or the procedure. Sometimes you have to take the mental aspect of the procedure into consideration.
