Still my favorite player of all time. Idc if we didn’t get to see *much* of what he could do when he’s right, his MVP season was a highlight reel in itself. Dude was unstoppable. Too big, too strong, too fast, too good.
Thanks for acknowledging big dog double og d riggitty Jump 10 feet hang in the air for 20 fig Getty then slam the ball so damn hard in the rim you felt it through the tv if you were watching the tv Rose
The body control this man had with the ball in his hand was special. He’s going to be talked about like the oldheads talk about Bill Walton but D Rose carried a bunch of defenders and under preforming Carlos Boozer to the #1 seed in East Conference the same era of prime Lebron and the big 3 Heat. He was special. 😢
He is way better, might not be so explosive now due to many injuries and fear of getting injured again, but he is way too wise now, even made a career high of 50 points which is great to see from a person who had many surgeries and downfalls
Tell me a better point God😮💨 just glad we got highlights of him true 99 overall in his early prime. He got all the tools offensively and more! Plus the Defensive awareness. He's intensity reminds me of Jordan in his prime, just a dog💪
Yall disrespecting westbrook in these comments. I love rose as well but dammit westbrook was that dude too. Let’s not tear one down to build up another.
He was like a small sport car with a super big Turbo . So fast so explosive but that power and explosiveness and speed was just too much for his body to handle . Which eventually led to his injuries. Remember seeing him in person here in Chicago, his speed and acceleration was out of this world once that fasbreak started no one i mean no nobody could out run this dude he was a blur in the open court just amazing acceleration and control “he was a ferrari with a bunch of hyundais out there on the court “ just like stacey king once said . Just amazing talent rose had I dont think we will ever see anyone close to drose. Winning the mvp at 22 in a league in a league with the best player’s in the world , this achievement will be one of the hardest to ever break for anyone been 11 years now and not one player has broken this achievement yet , how special and beast drose was, Ja is nice but not even close .
Nah it was the driver not the engine, no such thing as being too fast for your body, if a Bugatti is fast it’s because it was built for speed, there was no forcing it, it’s not landing properly and playing reckless took a toll on his knees
THE Barry Sanders of basketball. Not the NBA's hall of fame but the people have spoken. They don't need Canton Ohio to be immortal, all u need are the people.
And let me correct myself, he will make the hall of fame no doubt bcz the man had 3 gears like Mike and took it out of LeBron James mouth when LeBron was prime not derrick. D Rose NEVER had a prime whats crazy bcz this wasn't 10yrs into the avg prime of an NBA players career. He was only 19-25! Gear 1: unstoppable abilities Gear 2:unguardable abilities Gear 3: ridiculous abilities.
I think he will be in the hof. If he doesnt make it he would be the first mvp not in there. I think that award with his play off runs will get him in. Plus he has had ok numbers post injury. I think he also got a sixth man of the yr award.
This guy has the best highlight reel I’ve ever seen…and most of it is from three seasons! Imagine what we’d be watching right now if he never got injured. Just a wild amount of ball control and athleticism. He looks like he’s floating when he jumps!
I still believe he was the goat when he was with the bulls before the injury. His explosives was to much for his body at that time. Better than lebron and wade.
I’m literally having this argument right now some funny saying ja better then him I’m like bruh he ran over the heat in his prime ja had a hard time with the timberwolves
@@user-58_gotti Ok let’s be honest he gave the Heat fits to say he ran over them ummmmm might be an overstatement lol. You have to actually win a series to say u ran over someone
No way rose was better than Lebron. Brons defense and scoring was much better than rose thats why bron locked him down in the ECF in 2011. I do think rose deserved that mvp though but clearly rose was never better than bron. Drose could have been better though if it wasn’t for the injuries. Injuries robbed us of his peak prime . But a 22 year old drose was nowhere close to miami bron. Thats one thing that people forget about bron his defense in miami. Those where his best years defensively. Ima big rose fan but I can’t ever say rose was better than bron cause I know and understand basketball I can’t agree with you sorry. At 22 rose was never better than lebron . But he could have been if injuries didn’t happen to rose
He was once upon a time the best point guard in the league, he could have been one of the greatest point guards in NBA history, I’m so sad to see his potential diminished due to injuries
Tell me a better point God😮💨 just glad we got highlights of him true 99 overall in his early prime. He got all the tools offensively and more! Plus the Defensive awareness. He's intensity reminds me of Jordan in his prime, just a dog💪
Derrick Rose is Derrick Rose but I just can help to see a mix of like, 50% of Allen Iverson + 50% of Michael Jordan in him. Such a great player and man.
6:38 The flash, unstoppable. Without a doubt one of the most fantastic players in the NBA, before the injuries. There was no player at the time at such an athletic level, or at least they didn't do what he did with all this technique and speed.
When I lived in Milwaukee…and the Bulls would come to town, he would get MVP chants in MKE. It was crazy. Kobe is the only other player I seen get MVP chants in another city.
Oh my God, I wished Derrick Rose did not get injured...he was absolutely a generational talent. He should have been in the top 75 NBA greatest and a first ballot Hall Of Famer 😔
I’m glad I witnessed his greatness while he was on top of the world at such a young age, I’m just not happy I witnessed the many injuries he suffered 😢 he will forever be one of my favorite players
Skip to like 5:33, I think that is like the greatest example of how ridiculous Rose athleticism was. He flies for the block, goes out of bounds for a sec, then accelerates into Ferrari mode, gets the ball, and then becomes a one man wrecking crew, ignores the D, calmly makes his way inside, spins like it's nobodies business, contorts his body and lays it in (against a great defender Hibbert too) Gosh Rose made me fall in love with basketball so hard, even if I could never play like him (not that anyone really can... although some come close)
This guy (D Rose)went up against a stacked Lebron team. People give Bron credit for guarding him for a moment in the 4th. This dude was the engine and the offense of his team. Bron had monStars (Space Jams)on his team. He was exhaused while Bron was fresh. Most overrated statement made about Bron "he guards one through 5" nonse.
Man stop. Even in Cleveland when lebron lost love and Kyrie injured down 2-1 rose still ain't lead the bulls past Bron. And he did get locked up by a guy that can and has guarded 1-5. Go watch the 2013 finals when Bron was guarding Tim Duncan, kawhi, Tony Parker and got that huge block on Tiago splitter. Or when he locked up russ, harden, Murray, and Giannis. If u don't know ball just say u don't know ball.
MVP! D Rose , I watched every single Bulls game for 3-4 years straight when D Rose arrived to the Bulls - He is the REAL MVP! And it was too fun watching him exploding to the rim and performing, PHENOMAL feats. I haven't watched many, if any, bulls game after the D Rose era. It's just not the same, D Rose #1.
The Bulls did this young man a great disservice. He could have preserved his knees and probably prevented a lot of damage to his knees if they would have taught him how to land after jumping😑. As a Chicago native and lifelong Bulls fan his time there was special. Need to retire that #1 as soon as he hang it up
there was like a 3-4 year period during my high school/ college days where it felt like almost half the people on the basketball court were wearing adizero crazy lights
We all know about the injuries, but we all should be grateful that we got to see him play without them. How can you forget about this ultimate athlete? People talk about the GOAT - MJ, Kobe, Lebron, Bird, Wilt. Rose would def be in the conversation if he stayed healthy, but such is life of an athlete. He was awesome. The end.
Still my favorite player of all time. Idc if we didn’t get to see *much* of what he could do when he’s right, his MVP season was a highlight reel in itself. Dude was unstoppable. Too big, too strong, too fast, too good.
Thanks for acknowledging big dog double og d riggitty Jump 10 feet hang in the air for 20 fig Getty then slam the ball so damn hard in the rim you felt it through the tv if you were watching the tv Rose
Totally my favorite player too.
@@rockoutez6309it’s crazy how explosive he was & the grace to top it off with he was literally leaving defenders in the dust
More excited for his HOF induction than any other player.
D ROSE was unstoppable!!! None of the so called GOATS wanted NO Smoke from D ROSE at age 22!!!!! my all time favorite Athlete!!!
DRose is 1 of those players that is loved & respected by all fans in the NBA. To witness Prime DRose was an insane time
The body control this man had with the ball in his hand was special. He’s going to be talked about like the oldheads talk about Bill Walton but D Rose carried a bunch of defenders and under preforming Carlos Boozer to the #1 seed in East Conference the same era of prime Lebron and the big 3 Heat.

And people say Ja Morrant is better🫣 prime Derrick Rose is on another level
he was westbrook with a brain, insane
And a better shoot
Better than Westbrook. Lead a team to the conference finals Albeit a team with dieng boozer Noah hinrik butler sheeeesh studded team
He is way better, might not be so explosive now due to many injuries and fear of getting injured again, but he is way too wise now, even made a career high of 50 points which is great to see from a person who had many surgeries and downfalls

Yall disrespecting westbrook in these comments. I love rose as well but dammit westbrook was that dude too. Let’s not tear one down to build up another.
I love his dunk package. He was so calm in his demeanor but aggressive attacking that basket. Never scared of big moments either…A straight up killer!
Before his knees were busted he was the most electrifying player in the NBA, and also for the best franchise in the NBA
He was really the biggest what if
D Rose was my childhood hero growing up. I learned basketball the moment I saw him play. He will always be my idol no matter what
Too Big, Too Strong, Too Fast, Too Good!!!
Big?
One of the best lines ever
Big? Your comment says the answer is Lebron James.
LeBron?
Derrick Rose has a DEEPER bag than Ja simple💯 idk how ppl argue this shit

Yeah I agree
I 100% agree,,, and John wall had some pretty blinding end to end speed at that same time as well
Ja morant can't jump but he aint accelerating like rose
@@deewils24 John Wall was probably the closest we’ll ever get to a prime DRose
Nah it was the driver not the engine, no such thing as being too fast for your body, if a Bugatti is fast it’s because it was built for speed, there was no forcing it, it’s not landing properly and playing reckless took a toll on his knees
Every now and then you see flashes of Derrick Rose.. I miss this version of D rose so much
Prime Rose is Unforgettable Unguardable! and Unstoppable!! He's Too Big Too Strong Too fast Too Good!!!

man i miss the prime rose so much.. nba would b so much fun if he didn't get injured
I see why his knees went so quick . But boy was this a sight to see . D rose was really 1 of 1
Yeah fr, he was just too explosive and you can just see in his three pointers that he really swings his legs around
I really appreciate the first highlight coinciding with being my favorite d rose highlight
He was once upon a time the best point guard in the league, he could have been one of the greatest point guards in NBA history, I’m so sad to see his potential diminished due to injuries
🔥 Always love a good Rose video.
You’re not the only one bro we will forever love rose in chicago
Awesome video. He's one of my favorite players of all time
He will always be an MVP!!!!
Great video! 🌹🔥

Not many talk about how insane his handles were. Maybe if he was healthy longer he compared to Kyrie or Jamal handles
Perfect song
🔥🔥 vid man
People really really forget how great this guy was
I miss him in Chicago so much
I cant stress this enough. I love derrick rose.
I wonder why he’s never mentioned with one of the best ball handlers in NBA history
He is the best of all time!
Whooo boy!!!
He is to me
You just have to smile while watching this.
This man deserves a ring. What an amazing player.
Derrick Rose is Derrick Rose but I just can help to see a mix of like, 50% of Allen Iverson + 50% of Michael Jordan in him.
Such a great player and man.
I love how touch the sky is in the background
Greatest player I’ve ever been able to watch live
My favorite player ever 🌹
Amazing highlights, with touch the sky by kanye, amazing
6:38 The flash, unstoppable. Without a doubt one of the most fantastic players in the NBA, before the injuries. There was no player at the time at such an athletic level, or at least they didn't do what he did with all this technique and speed.
THE ROSE SHOW ❤
legend!
When I lived in Milwaukee…and the Bulls would come to town, he would get MVP chants in MKE. It was crazy. Kobe is the only other player I seen get MVP chants in another city.
Oh my God, I wished Derrick Rose did not get injured...he was absolutely a generational talent. He should have been in the top 75 NBA greatest and a first ballot Hall Of Famer 😔
He would have been top 10
I’m glad I witnessed his greatness while he was on top of the world at such a young age, I’m just not happy I witnessed the many injuries he suffered 😢 he will forever be one of my favorite players
D Rose is this Generations version of Allen Iverson but with more explosiveness 🔥🔥🔥
And could dunk better
I remember when the discussion at this time was who’s the better athletic PG…D Rose or Westbrook. Were they serious?? 🤣🤣😭
Thank you 🌹
What a beautiful blip in the history of sports
nice way to put it
Skip to like 5:33, I think that is like the greatest example of how ridiculous Rose athleticism was. He flies for the block, goes out of bounds for a sec, then accelerates into Ferrari mode, gets the ball, and then becomes a one man wrecking crew, ignores the D, calmly makes his way inside, spins like it's nobodies business, contorts his body and lays it in (against a great defender Hibbert too) Gosh Rose made me fall in love with basketball so hard, even if I could never play like him (not that anyone really can... although some come close)
Beautiful
Nah the crazy part is he might have put it in sport mode but skip to 6:38 if you wanna see Ferrari track mode
Would have been fun to see Rose with better spacing on the floor. That wasn't the game quite yet but he still made it work.
I will always love the Windy City Assassin
Ngl like the type of aggressiveness Russ played with is just unmatched
Watching D Rose highlights are depressing 🥺
fr. whenever I see him pulling some crazy nice move while averaging like 3 ppg and showing some remnant of prime drose i get sad
This gives me goosebumps man. The body control mid air, this man had FINESSE! But he also was able to play through all that contact as well.
He definitely got to go down as one of the best finishers in NBA history idk how in the world he make some of those layups
This guy (D Rose)went up against a stacked Lebron team. People give Bron credit for guarding him for a moment in the 4th. This dude was the engine and the offense of his team.

Name me someone besides LeBron who can guard 1 thru 5. Because I think of two of them right now still playing
@@sportstalkonly1442 if lebron stayed in Cleveland drose was def going to go to the finals in 2011 lebron cleavend team wouldn't beat the 2011 bulls
@@OfficiallyJeffWorld he didn't beat the cavs without love and kyrie missing two games.. He wasn't going to get past Bron. Look at the 2010 playoffs
Rose and young blake would go up on anybody and smash it on them. It was so much fun to watch those 2.
6:45 shows just how great Rose was. Allen, one of the best perimeter defenders at the time. And he couldn’t keep up with Rose’s athleticism.
1 of da greatest to do it!
Amazing dude, he's the new Michael Jordan! I only came here because I bought Rose shoes from Adidas !! I love it
Idol Derick rose from philippines,,
i remember getting his 2.5s for christmas :,)
3:47 That timing with the beat and Call from Marv is great

Had he never injured, he could have won more NBA championship titles. Respect. ♥️
Man, he was something special in his prime.
“STOP IT. I WANNA GO HIGHER”
- all time legendary call on an all time legendary play
That’s it
Too big, too fast, too strong, too good❤
I LOVE DERRICK ROSE
my favorite player from that time period. my mans was too cool.
Man was unstoppable even with those injuries
Rose one of those players nobody can hate on
D Rose in his prime was the DEFINITION of built different
Hall of famer in my book
He constantly landed on straight legs. I think this is one of the major reasons for his injuries.
Also usually landed on one leg which didn't spread the impact well :(
His dunk package is phenomenal
he just too good... he a nightmare matchup for every PG in the league during he MVP season
This is enough to make a grown mf man cry dawg. What could have been😭😭😭
Mavs fan here... but damn this man was the greatest finisher in his prime
01:47 beauty fast spin
04:31 genius
The Bulls did this young man a great disservice. He could have preserved his knees and probably prevented a lot of damage to his knees if they would have taught him how to land after jumping😑. As a Chicago native and lifelong Bulls fan his time there was special. Need to retire that #1 as soon as he hang it up
My heart is soaring but my knee is hurting from watching this.
always will be my favorite player i dont care what anyone tells me if hes a what if player
Touch the Sky!
When you watch how he used to land it’s no surprise that he got injured 😢
there was like a 3-4 year period during my high school/ college days where it felt like almost half the people on the basketball court were wearing adizero crazy lights
Damn he was good . I wonder how many trophies this man would have had he not been injured so many times
Respect to the ROSE of chicago with 20000, derrick~~~~~~rose~~~~~
Crazy you plays nowadays but Rose did stuff on the daily that was insane
We all know about the injuries, but we all should be grateful that we got to see him play without them. How can you forget about this ultimate athlete? People talk about the GOAT - MJ, Kobe, Lebron, Bird, Wilt. Rose would def be in the conversation if he stayed healthy, but such is life of an athlete.

Greatest finisher at the rim ever
Imagine rose n jordan running da fast break sheeeesh
B4 Westbrook,curry ,Lillard and Kyrie there were called the "windy city assassin" and that man is Derrick Rose 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
VERY few can leap thru the impression, he had that degree of work ethic.
"what are you doing dragic!!!??"😂😂
