Man, even after that acl, he'd still be the fastest in the league. It just shows how much faster he was than everybody, I don't think Wall or Westbrook would have been a match for him if he was healthy all throughout his career.
true ! no disrespect to any player current or past not even Prime Michael Jordan can stop a healthy MVP Derrick Rose ! and this is coming from a Bulls Rodman fan💁🏻♀️
Why god, why?......... Why the injuries to a player that was going to be a personified 1st ballot Hall Of Famer and who was the most athletic PG i have ever seen!!!! and is still my favorite player!
Love that Rose did this before last season, prepared him tremendously. To my eyes he hasn't even missed a step through the injuries. He just learned how to reserve his self and play smarter. These highlights proved that and so do his highlights from this past regular season and playoffs. He'll be back being an all-star in no time, this man's will to never give up is another reason to salute him. Favorite basketball player since day 1, that won't change.
Exactly, he just doesn't play as recklezz as he use to so people who don't really follow him think he's lost athleticism when he really hasn't. The speed, the quickness, and body control is still in tact he just plays less recklessly. If anything he played more like him self in USA basketball than he did all season. He was really playing like himself during the beginning of the season, then slowed it down when he had the ankle and hamstring issues early in the season. I'm glad that he's finally back and playing like the real D-Rose and not some imposter
Tris A. He played pretty smart before the major injuries. Was averaging 25 and 8, and literally carried his team to the playoffs. Unselfish and didn't play reckless, just played his strengths. Those injuries were due to poor diet and lack of conditioning in that compressed lockout season, which really shouldn't have began at all. The speed is a noticeable difference from 2011 to 2012. He's just rusty, as you said.
+Stutzy he's always like that, he's really calm and chill, even in games he rarely shows any special emotion. he's just like "oh it was a highlight? oh okay, didnt notice"
I know Derrick Rose has his flashes of explosiveness even during this 2015 season with the face mask, but I watch these highlights and this looked like retro D-rose highlights. Storming up the court full speed, finishing in traffic, showing off his ball handling. He didn't dunk quite like he did in 2011 in these highlights, but he looked very explosive. Nowadays you just don't see that fire in him. I know he's got the blurred vision going on so I'll give him some slack for that, but his drives are just not quite the same. I can appreciate that he's changed his game a bit so that his in-game dunks don't blow his legs off or something, but I miss that fire you used to see. Lots of passion. Maybe he's still got it this year, but I haven't quite seen it. Anyways, reflective bulls fan here I guess. Hope he has a good season this year.
+NinjaLIAM yea double vision and he is just coasting through this season until its a big pg matchup or playoffs like he did last year where he just waited til post-season to take it up a notch
Crazy how this was after both knee injuries and he’s still got that amazing first step this season has been spectacular making a comeback season as we speak
Dont disrespect players from europe or somewhere else like this, at least most of europe teams has amazing defence, because they play defence as a team, not as a player, also 2021 USA team loss against France shows that. But yeah Drose would fuck them up
The NBA would be so different in the last decade if Rose were healthy. The NBA is supposed to have 3 all time greats besides Lebron in this era, and he's supposed to be the Best of the Three. Rose, Curry, KD
I hope 2K gets his signature size ups (quickness) right. Rose is still a beast. Simple eye test tells you he hasn't lost it or is washed up.. Crazy talk.. #FutureMostImproved
Jay Kelz Dude watch his day by day games and you will see why they dont and btw I clearly said full game not just a couple highlights cuz last game he fked up and kept missing easy layups whoch hes supposed to make cuz thats his specialty...
Yashmin Pascual You may be right man! But I'm not talking about his ability to score in the game, I'm just talking about his move set, in 2K lol. Nobody can hardly stay in front of him even now and his first step and layups are far from orthodox, not saying his actual efficiency brotha!
Jay Kelz 2k will never get it right his tendencies Is still the exact same from 2k14 when he's obviously changed his game a bit , and his jumper has changed they still have the one from his MVP season , and the layups are only like 2 different ones they are slacking
+Marsad Kabir "calm down boys, theres northing to worry about, we just need to drain a few triples and we will be back in the game, keep doing what your doing we got this one!, 1, 2, 3 FINLAND!!
In my humble opinion, I think D. Rose deserves to be in the HOF when he retires. If you look back at his career until this point, he's won championship in high school, two Olympic gold medals, and is the youngest MVP ever (including other minor stats and accomplishments...). Like Melo, I think you have to look at his overall basketball career and not just his career as an NBA player.
you realize his vertical has actually gone up right.... he just chooses not to do those crazy dunks all the time anymore because they kill his knees.... so you need to stop guessing and actually look some stuff up bruh lol. and if you wanna be ignorant and don't wanna believe me here it is: espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/9779719/derrick-rose-chicago-bulls-says-vertical-leap-five-inches-higher-surgery
3000Blackhawk Well he thinks he jumps higher...bruh (dumbass stoner wannabe Point Break). I haven't seen it, and given his delicate face and everything else no one probably will. Even if he can, what's the difference if he doesn't. Having it and not using it is the same result as losing it.
And it was TESTED during his recovery stages and he got ABOUT 42 inches, his old was 37. So either way his vertical went up or is about the same but most definitely NOT a loss, especially 6 inches like you said lmao I'm done with stupid people trying to act like they know something
this video showing the reason why Derrick Rose hurt more easier than any other players! go with shot in the game more than layup could save, keep your health and long your career!
This was after his injuries though, it's kinda weird for me all teams just gave up on him like this. If you watch his highlights in the past few years, the man is still insanely athletic.
Alex Sinscere yeah I know d rose is still great, but when I think of EXPLOSIVE d rose, I think fast slashes to the basket, and finishing above the rim, whether it’s a dunk, or a layup. Like look how fast he is in this clip, he literally look like a blur sometimes. He hasn’t been like that since 2014 man. He still great though
I think Rose is just changing his playing style. I agree with the other comments. He's more pass first now. It seems like he's abandoning the athletic moves and leaps towards the rim for a dunk like he used to. He's still quick as ever but It looks like he's getting more focused on being a playmaker. I hope he can become an athletic Steve Nash. Just needs a jumper like Nash and he'd be set to be one of the top five pg's again.
That moment u remember that Shumpert and Drose injured their ACLs on the same day and Shumpert is looking healthier than Drose and has won a ring before Drose
Imo I always thought this summer he was in his athletic prime. I remember reading stuff about how he added 5 inches to his vertical after the injury and he was getting his head near rim on some dunk attempt highlights from this summer.
If the Cavs had a clue they would actually have a shot at the NBA title this year with Rose and Lebron. I suspect that Lebron simply isn't willing to let someone else have that much control over the offense...
I have a dream. I have a dream that one day, the Windy City Assassin will return to his former prime self. These highlight videos are the only thing that can put my mind to rest every night.
