If You Never Saw What Derrick Rose Did, You Would Never Believe It 

The saddest imo

The GOAT, well the best season of any player ever...

Yeah saddest indeed. D Rose shoes was all around the stores back then. One of the biggest WHAT IFs in basketball history.

Facts

Fr thought we was seeing the 2nd coming of MJ

Exactly

Yes but many forget about that other lonestar fighting against the heat.. Paul George #24 never forgot that birdman poster

Pretty sure you can but if he wasn't injured man nba history would've change dramatically

D. Rose is IRL Rocky Balboa... Rose is the greatest what if that has all the upsides of curry, westbrook and irving.

That Injury robbed the NBA and the windy city of the true heir of MJ.

That's fire bro

To have Rose coming off the bench for us again - especially the way he AND the Cavs are playing right now... omg... lol

That's when he was at his lowest point in his career about to retire. Awesome story, Chicago will always love Rose.

I’m a Bulls fan and I love this kid so much. Watched him in High school, college and of course the NBA. I wanted him to be great in Cleveland so bad. After everything he went through I hoped that this would be his new beginning in a new city that loves sports. He could’ve been a legend there. But those injuries, man, it’s painful to think about. Just glad he’s still playing and still a good player. I watched T Wolves games, Pistons games, and I watch Knicks games. And even though he was playing for 3 different Bulls rivals, I rooted for those teams to win every single game. Just a quiet humble kid that would’ve been one of the best players ever. My favorite thing about him on the court were his unbelievable layups and the absolute smooth grace and how he could contort his body. I’ve never seen anything like it ever. Graceful.

We're witnessing a 6'2" young man who is smart, athletic with mad handles and best of all, he thoroughly entertained Chicago fans...

Real talk

Speed kills

He was too fast for his own body. He's superhuman.

He was literally the quickest NBA player ever. It's unreal. He would hardly have to make a move and he would just position himself around his defender in the blink of an eye. Wish I was able to watch him in his prime in person.

The thing i loved the most about him was how humble he has always been

I kinda low key wish he would flop now but he just has too much respect and integrity for the game.

the sheer atleticism plus the insane handles ... His MVP session was in a whole different level.

Real ish!

When I think about that game I got sad!!

I love Drose but Ja Morant is better than prime Drose imo.

@@mcaudiomc what? I hope u are not mean

Ja Morant

💯💯💯💯💯

True

People knew Westbrook but he was just a good young player. Also played next to KD. Curry was actually pretty underrated for the first few years. Once Elise left curry took over. Kyrie came in the league a bit after Westbrook and Rose. I think Kyrie wasn't even in the league when D rose had his MVP year.

@@Christopher._M nobody cares about a Westbrook or a KD, no attention was given to Kyrie or Curry, nobody even cared that they existed. All eyes were focused on Rose and Rose alone. Even people who didn't like the bulls had to time in to see this amazing young man do his thing. He embarrassed every big name that dared to step onto the floor against him and he made it look way too easy. Had he never been injured, there would have been multiple championship wins for Chicago.

@@winkletown8828 all that is true except for people not caring about KD. They definitely cared about KD. Rose was on another level compared to Westbrook, curry, Kyrie. But adding kyrie on that list is not fair because Kyrie was drafted around 2012. A better comparison would have been wall or lillard

was'nt he booed when he came back to chi-town as a knick ?

Nah that organization did him dirty

He was great but he isn’t a winner.

He was like Westbrook in the sense of going full throttle every game all game with a jumper and played defense. One of the biggest what ifs but regardless I never saw him of the bulls better past Lebron. Lebron ruled the East.

😭😭😭

When Lebron shut him down he shot less than 35 percent in the 4th quarters of every playoffs against Miami.

Don't forget against Hawks that season as well in playoffs. He put up a then career high in one of those games.

But did he win tho

@@johncrrll3885 But did any superstar win a championship without a 'Big 3' or another superstar alongside them? invalid argument. Derrick Rose was a 1-Man team

@@holycrap2680 did he win tho

Me too dudes

Doubtful that he is on that list

@@brucebruce7065 never said he would be

@@VibesAndNotes "there would be no doubt his inclusion" 🤔

@@brucebruce7065 IF HE DIDN'T GET HURT... You don't see that sentence huh The dude had his first MVP by 22 and multiple All Star Game appearances he hadn't physically peaked yet and was top 5 Once again the qualifier to my statement is... IF HE DIDN'T GET HURT

D Rose, as great as a player that he is; I doubt that his impact on the city dwarfed Jordan. Yea I'm sure that the feeling on the southside hits different because he's from those streets but the "City" of Chicago isn't just Englewood bruh. Jordan didn't only shake up Chicago, that dude shook up the entire planet!

I remember that too. I cried a little with him. Go D-Rose!

@@ryaninSartell facts

i cried too

I told him he would and what to look out for to seal the win...Gspd

His documentary made me cry when he got the news he was traded by his home team. 💔

the explosive athletic playstyle that fans admired is also the reason why he was injury prone.

@@pohtangeynamo3351 yah, his body couldn’t take the kind of game he’s known for.. but with proper training and maintenance he could’ve maintained it.. he just didn’t get the conditioning needed for it.. well, as I’ve said, this is just another what if in NBA, coz he wouldn’t want to change his play style, as he said, he would die on the court doing the same thing.. Still love his resilience though..

Plus his running and jumping mechanics. If he fixed that, he would've been more durable

@@enigmatiks definitely his landing on one leg as opposed to both

Spitting facts i would love to see that alternate reality of him never getting hurt... imagine all the rings

I think he just had so much muscle it hurt his body. Think of Bo Jackson. Lucky Rose is still able to play

Great comment; it was AweSum. Ahhahahaaaa

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Mr7yRIp3GIk.html 💪YOU NEVER SAW THIS YET ON DERRICK ROSE

They know their roles well and unlike other players who wants to be better than their best teamate .. kind of like what westbrook is to kd .. they know they are support players like how pippen and rodman was to mj

Grant Hill was bigger tho he could of adjusted his game I give rose the edge because he is avg size 6'2 180 for nba and still did crazy plays

Agreed. Hill and Rose still had long careers but after injuries were a shell of what they were. Both went from eye-popping heirs to the throne ...to solid role players in a blink. Rose was mvp, Hill's best year he was 2nd in mvp to MJ.

Hill was my favourite player that dunk was insane hill was insane rose was and still is pretty dang insane!

@@Buddha_Approved Hill had a elite first step look into it

@@vicentee2687 hill was my fav Panter when he was healthy I know brotha!!

The way he lands with one leg is hard to watch tho 🤪

Didnt even reach his prime man, he was just 22 yrs old back when he won mvp

like 5 years before his prime at least thats whats so amazin

Stop saying prime drose!!!!. Its mvp drose he never reached his prime!!!!!!!!!

It's this very play on the word "prime" that allowed Gilbert arenas to dance around the question of who was better between "prime" d-rose" and prime Westbrook. All we can go by is what we actually see/saw throughout the course of a player's career. So whatever point in their career when they were at their best is prime. With that being said, I like prime rose over prime Westbrook!

Makes me happy knowing whenever someone says they miss prime d rose, someone corrects them all the time. He never hit his prime and was still growing.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Hi-bpvHU7ao.html

Too true.

How didn’t we ? 😂 Y’all say the most dumbest shit we seen his prime that was his MVP season

@@garyyidsen6574 that wasn't his prime, he was 22 for godsake

@@3_N_Z_0 How wasn’t that his prime do you know the definition of prime dude

Actually we never got to see him at his “Peak” not so much his prime. I mean that’s also debatable considering he had a lot more in the tank to sustain a couple more years were it not for injury but his peak was never reached. Remember he was improving his 3 point shooting, coupling that with his explosiveness would’ve been a sight to see with fans but a nightmare for opponents…

Except in the playoffs. Lebron made Rose look like a nephew

@@steveno7058 I think Rose was not 100%. But anyway I was not comparing anyone. I love Lebron and Wade too.

@@steveno7058 he was cooking Lebron and Wade minus being injured.

And clears the backboard with his head by less then an inch 🤯

My fave part is when scalabrine blocked rose layup with 2 hands

Reminds me of my favorite player A.I

The bulls should have gave him a change to get better we could have won another finals with that team but as always they break broke up the team light they mj and pip

Agreed ... Prime D-Rose was basically unguardable by any other current top tier PG in the league, hands down.

Lol

Drose should have been the GOAT if there were no injuries on him...best of the best

P

@@narisbaluran2641 No, he had absolutely no chance at being the GOAT if he never got injured with all due respect to the great Derrick Rose.

If he had gotten the treatment that today's athletes got, he would have come back even more explosive. I think ACL injuries are still bad, but there's a higher chance of full recovery these days then even 10 years ago when he got hurt. Another sad what if...

Perhaps the biggest what if of the bulls is what if jordan hadn't retired, they may have won 8 championsips or more in a row

@@palatrass Yeah that too! You know what I was thinking? What if MJ never retired but also was in 10 finals as LeBron? Lets say from season 88-89 to 97-98, not saying they would have won 10 titles back to back (that would be sci-fi), but I think that maybe they would lose the first time as the rest of the team was not ready to win a title, but in 7 games as MJ would play so hard to win that a 7 game lost is the only choice to me, then maybe after hypotetical 4 titles back to back they would drop the ball in 94 against Hakeem but again in 7 games, but they would come back in 95 again as MJ would want to have his revenge, so possibly a 8-10 sorry for LeBron, but certainly not a 4-10!

The most athletic guard Rose had some big highlights against one of the least in Andre Miller 😂

@@jays0909 ...and he didn't let it go unnoticed. 😅

Nobody ever talks about the fact that he only turned it over cos the cheeky prick guarding him was pulling on his other arm

@@jays0909 i remember andre miller having like 0 vertical in 2k 😂

yeah holy shit, he sync-jumped like he was going to make the dunk himself. He read it beautifully.

yup. sounds corny, but most of chicago & im sure alot of fans across the globe have that bit of pain in their heart for this guy. pride of chicago, we adore him here

Still a better finisher at the rim

Rose technically is a glass chimaera of Westbrook, Curry and Irving.

@@ramonvicentevallesterosric7802 no way of curry bruh

@@marconarca2706 not on the same shooting level but I see him being a better shooter than kyrie and has handles so...

@@ramonvicentevallesterosric7802 rose a better shooter than Kyrie irving?! I think absolutely NOT! Lol

True story. Love it

Great take

More like Westbrook and ai, lillard is more perimeter oriented while d rose and those 2 played more inside and out

Lol

So Lebron, Giannis, Shaq, Wilt, MJ, Westbrook, Zion, Kawhi, Ben Simmons, Ja Morant, AD, KD, KG ect aren’t bigger, stronger, faster, have bigger hands and wingspan and can jump/reach higher ? D.Rose is great, but overated as hell, watch Tony Parker highlights and you will see exactly the same level of quickness and lateral speed, and the guy is the 10th playoffs best scorer of all time, TP is underated as hell and D.Rose overated as hell.

Even Iverson was just as athletic, like cmon guy we know he from chicago and his story is sad but he is overated.

@@Anthonydu01630 derrick is nowhere near overrated..but I do agree with you not being the most athletic player. But he is ONE Of the most athletic and fastest pg ever.

Without Curry's shooting lol.... curry is miles better than this clown now!

Likewise bro. I say that consistently that he is my favorite player ever.

He changed the culture of the New York Knicks almost overnight and dragged them to the playoffs, that's what great players do regardless of stats.

Same

Most players that’s been what he’s been through wasn’t ever able to do half of what he’s accomplished post-injury ACL/Meniscus. Let alone, return at all. I agree.

He's washed bro, his salary now would be as good as cp3 if he's not..
