He was the chosen one. Not only from the city, but his last name is the same color as the jerseys. It was meant to be. And then Tibs came into town ... I'll never forgive him
Something what? He was an average or worse defender. He had zero seasons with 30+ PPG or 8+ APG. Yes, he was a very very good offensive player, with charisma and flashy moves, but far away from the "biggest what if" category. There are players with better career stats than his prime averages.
Crazy how I was just thinking of watching a d rose video and then this comes out 6 mins ago. Just tore my ACL 8 months ago and had surgery 6 months ago so I'm hoping I can try to get back to normal.
Being from Chicago also Derrick Rose was supposed to be our Micheal Jordan of are generation To bring rings to Chicago but injuries ofc killed dat dream we still love and support Derrick rose🐐🐐
He looked like Michael Jordan of point guards. His speed and elevation at that size was ridiculous. Additionally he was leading and winning a lot early
I remember playing 2k11 with my cousin. I don't remember who he played with. But I scored more than 60 points with D-Rose while his whole team only had like 20. I spammed the heck out of the spin move and once that animation started, there was no stopping it. I used to spam D-Rose in 2k11 so much so that I was in the top 11 in their biweekly online ranking. Spin, spin, dunk! :D What's more incredible is that D-Rose was not far off those combos in real life. He was truly a treasure to witness. I miss that era 😢
Been a bulls fan since I was a little kid and seeing Derrick tear his ACL I CRIED like a baby, I felt so bad for him. When he scored 50 for Minnesota I cried also, I'm just so proud to see him push through the injuries and have a successful career. I really wish he could have retired in a Bulls jersey, but just happy to see him happy and thriving now.
It was bound to happen. His knee was a ticking time bomb. I’ve had knee issues my entire adult life. There are signs before major injuries that you wouldn’t think about until retrospect
His knees were just worn out at that point. It seems like some guys are too explosive for their bodies to hold up to jumping the way he could. He consistently battled injuries leading up to and after his ACL tear. It really is sad.
Kids will never understand how much of a beast Derrick Rose was between is rookie year to his MVP year. 06:05 The celtics didn't win the title in '09 btw😂😂😂
derrick has been my goat for so long, seeing all this go down his career in real time was tuff, but seeing him still play was so inspiring and inspirational. I’m sad bro is retired now but bro brought so much joy and respect for the game. Thank you for the memories i’ll always be apart of the roses.🌹
This might have something to do with it... even if you weren't dominating.. thinking he'd probably lose that if he stopped. He was also unlikely to get paid from playing after those injuries unfortunately Rose debuted his first signature sneaker, the Adidas Adizero Rose 1, in 2011, the same year he was named the NBA‘s MVP at just 22 years old for a record that still stands today. A year later, him and Adidas locked down a reported 14-year, $185 million extension that’s kept him well-paid
Derrick Rose is the only person who’s injury actually hurt me to see because he ain’t do nothing to nobody and it was taken away from him fr, he would’ve been top 5 all time fr he was like that and I respect him so much it just sucks man I really loved watching Prime Rose, as a Heat fan he’s always going to be my favorite opponent to watch behind Kobe Bryant, Damn Rose 😢
This man was the reason I fell in love with basketball dude did moves on the court tht I couldn’t even dream of doing and became my favorite player I was never a fan of a team I was a fan of a player where ever he played tht was my team and this year for the first time I’m basketball neutral because he retired. I just enjoy watching the game now 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The biggest what if, according to the people I play pick up with, is that about fifteen of them were *this close* to the NBA but then got that one injury that derailed the whole thing.
This is all Tom Thibodeau's fault. Dude keep his star player playing on a game that they are sure winner. Well, we can see already that Rose will eventually get injured some point in time, but because of that game, he had his injury earlier than expected. And until now, Tom keeps doing this with his rooster.
He’s turning the knicks around he’s the president of basketball operations for every team since for a reason , rose played reckless even he admitted it .
Was anyone else at Derrick Rose night at the UC? Hard to put into words just how much this guy means to the city of Chicago. One of the best and I’m so lucky I got to see him a play a few times in his prime back in the day!!
I was just a kid in the 90s and didnt understand the impact of mj since it was just every day life in chicago. Derrick Rose made me love the game and tune in every single night. I watched 77 of the 82 games that MVP year. I was captivated by it. I wore D rose adidas to the gym. Im 33 now and dont idolize many humans, never really have, but those few years felt special. Like we had a chance. I wish things took a different turn and he never got injured. Maybe we win 5 chips. Maybe 0. Either way, im happy to have witnessed prime Derrick Rose in Chicago as a young adult.
I did not know he got injured that many times. That's so sad man but the fact he was able to play another 12 after the 1st is just God's blessing. Shout out D Rose
I love and hate content like this lol, and I mean hate only because it hurts to watch some of it. Derrick Rose is and forever will be the reason I started to love hoops. I liked basketball growing up, but I didn't NEED to watch until I saw this dude play for the first time. It's fire to see all these moments again, but knowing how his career went vs what it had the potential to be, TOUGH! Incredible player, incredible work on the video. To think that a point guard was the most electrifying, most athletic talent in the league at the same time LeBron James was in his prime is nuts btw. GOAT
I was like 10 years old when D Rose got drafted. Growing up in Chicago i saw him at AAU tourneys, playing w Eric Gordon on meanstreets, which was unfair lol 😂. My Dad use to say he was going to the league, and he did. Its crazy to reflect on those times and see how far he has come as a person. Shout out to you D Rose
Man watching this hurts to this day . He was suppose to bring us back to greatness . But he’s a winner in life, he is as humble and genuine as they come . Growing up with him and seeing him now as a person and a dad, it’s a blessing to witness . Chicago will always love D. Rose
@@ashinyblockreal He tore his miniscus after Patrick Beverly shoved him, and he missed the rest of the season. Don't forget about John Wall, Ja Morant, and Zion.
He was certainly the most exciting to watch. I tuned in just to see him. The night he hurt his knee was awfull to watch and the one after he came back was heartbreaking.
I love how Derrick Rose never gave up. So many players would have gone through his injuries and called it quits. But he didn't. Every single time, he suited up, ready to go out on the floor and try to help his team win, even when his knees were as strong as a wet piece of paper. The fact he never gave up, and always stepped out on that floor speaks volumes about his character. Long live D-Rose
We got absolutely robbed of greatness. He didnt just have the the ability too... he had the leadership qualities to truly be a star. As a Bulls fan I remember saying, loudly, if they pick Beasley Im done with the franchise forever. I was ready to die on that hill. I was right. Im probably biased but I still think he's the most explosive player of my generation. His speed and ups were like a freakin alien.
Rose 100% deserves a spot in the Hall. Very few players can suffer as much as he did and still carve out a long and impactful career.
Every league MVP is in the Hall of Fame. That alone means he will be in there.
Hes the youngest to win it as well. He will be there for sure
Basketball Hall is much generous than other sports... he can get in
Hall of Fame*
Long career? Sure. Impactful post injury? Nah
Prime Derrick Rose was something 🔥
He was the chosen one. Not only from the city, but his last name is the same color as the jerseys. It was meant to be.
And then Tibs came into town ... I'll never forgive him
*young* Derrick Rose. He never hit his True Prime
We never saw his prime

@pharkasj his "prime" was his third season. That's like calling a 20 year old a failure because they never earned more than 80k
I see d rose content. I’m going to watch it and say. He meant so much to so many people. Regardless of his short “prime”
My favorite NBA player of all time. This guy was the reason I started watching he NBA when I was a kid
We don't care about you
@@MangoTroubles-007Ditto
@@MangoTroubles-007 No one cares about you

You care enough to respond, lol.
I'll always respect d rose for continuing his basketball career it showed a lot of character and his overall love for the sport

Praying for your recovery bro! Keep it going, and be kind to yourself!

Raised on 86th & Lowe

Of our generation
Kobe was the Jordan of that generation, stop it with Rose
My heart always melts whenever I see a Rose video.
God told Derek to rise so Derek ROSE. God bless this man. Too big, too fast, too strong 💪🏻
That's the corniest line ever, but I love D rose anyways

Derek Fisher?
i havent really watched basketball since he went down in that playoff game. tore out my heart.
Damn 4real???

I still blame Tom for Derrick rose first injury…none of the starters should’ve been in that game
Same here
I do too. And look at him today, he still runs his starters into the ground on New York
It was bound to happen. His knee was a ticking time bomb. I’ve had knee issues my entire adult life. There are signs before major injuries that you wouldn’t think about until retrospect

Love your content!!!! Can't get enough... Cheers
I respect Rose because he never gave up! That many injuries and he still managed to play 16 years! 🤝🏀
those injuries and him fighting for the game proved that his spirit is bigger than his body.

Prime Derrick Rose had so much aura. You just had to be there 🌹
man that 50 performance and interview is always so melancholic. I remember bawling my tears out that night, I was so happy for him
At least we got to see Derrick Rose take the court for an NBA team. Len Bias never even got that far.
The dude that OD’d?
@ Yeah. MJ said Bias was better than him. Tell me that isn’t the biggest ‘what if’ in all of sport, let alone the NBA.
@@tim.noonanBias vs MJ would’ve been the real best rivalry of all time

Can you make a Video about how good Brandon Roy was and what if he didn't had so many injuries
This vid was well put together. Prime D-rose was something special. Hard to put into words… you just had to be there
The biggest what if, according to the people I play pick up with, is that about fifteen of them were *this close* to the NBA but then got that one injury that derailed the whole thing.
Derrick Rose and Grant Hill. Probably the biggest "What Ifs" in NBA History. Those two are built different, if only they are also not prone to injury.
You could interchange either for penny hardaway as well. Those 3 are the biggest what ifs for me
Also Len Bias
I can't watch this it's still too soon 😢
ONCE AGAIN "NON STOP" OUTSTANDING JOB AND NARRATION! THAT VOICE IS SUPERIOR AND SUPERB!😂🎉❤
One of the hardest videos to watch as a basketball lover and bulls fan

I blame the lockout season too for his injuries. They had a crazy schedule trying to make up games for starting so late.

So sad it happens to one of the most humble human being ever alived. I rooted for this guy after AI retired, just so sad for D-Rose
drose has set the bar high for the youngest MVP. that's how monstrous his performance was.
If Derrick Rose didn't get injured, he would have had 2-3 more years of MVP dominance. That's it. Athletic guards are too injury-prone.
westbrook never got a major injury
@@ashinyblockreal He tore his miniscus after Patrick Beverly shoved him, and he missed the rest of the season. Don't forget about John Wall, Ja Morant, and Zion.
He also had surgery on his knee due to inflammation. Unfortunately, this is the norm for athletic guards.
He would have had 2-3 more years because he was going to get injured again anyway.
@@adrianstrong4345 your right about everything else but zion isn’t a guard?
R.I.P PRIME DROSE🌹🌹🌹🌹
great video! only typo I noticed is that Celtics didnt win the title during Rose rookie season it was the lakers but Celtics were the defending champs
It’s genuinely heartbreaking seeing what he could’ve been and seeing what those injury’s took from him it’s crazy that he tore his meniscus 4 times
He was certainly the most exciting to watch. I tuned in just to see him. The night he hurt his knee was awfull to watch and the one after he came back was heartbreaking.
One of THE LEGENDARY PG PERIOD!!! 🌹
That dragic Dunk will be on my all time poster list in NBA HISTORY from a point Guard
after having watched this i can really believe he was an MVP also off-court. Seems to be a great human being
