Rose tears knee cartilage again

[mr.MUskie]

Derrick Rose has suffered another major knee injury.

Rose reported to practice Tuesday with pain in his right knee and a subsequent MRI exam revealed a tear in his right medial meniscus. Rose will require surgery, and there is no timetable for his return.

Didn't rest enough this year.

My dad is gonna have a field day with this one.

My dad is gonna have a field day with this one.

Why?

[Dr. Blackheart]

I said over a year ago that he has a muscular degenerative disease.  Lay off him.

[ChicosBailBonds]

Does someone do his rehabilitation for him...a proxy?

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Why?

He can't stand him. Thinks he's extremely selfish.

[Atticus]

Wow. A lot of surgeries on these knees. I wouldnt be surprised if he undergoes OATS if the knee is bad enough. He'd be out 18+ months if so and would at least have to consider hanging em' up.

[MU82]

I feel bad for Rose.

I don't know him, I'm not a Bulls fan (though my son is) and I admit to poking fun at his fragility in the past. But all I can think is that this just sucks for him.

[PuertoRicanNightmare]

I would like to know if this happened over the all star break. He was playing his best basketball, then reported back to the team late and looked like a different guy.

[lurch91]

The Bulls certainly better pony up for JFB now.  He really could become the face of that franchise, if he isn't already.  They can not afford to lose him.

He can't stand him. Thinks he's extremely selfish.

Few things are as selfish as major knee injuries

Does someone do his rehabilitation for him...a proxy?

Wow.  That was extremely unfunny.  Well done.

He can't stand him. Thinks he's extremely selfish.

Does he know about the charity work all over the South Side he does with no fanfare or press?  Or the MANY funerals of kids slain on the South Side that he's attended?  Not to mention of all the times to say he's selfish or weak, immediately after an injury is the worst.

Not personally attacking your Dad, just the embodiment of the Rose criticism that has gleefully begun to flow again.

Rough day for Chicago sports yesterday.

Hopefully Kane's injury isn't major.

[NavinRJohnson]

Hopefully Kane's injury isn't major.

Looks pretty ominous to me. I'm guessing broken collar bone. They're saying 6-10 weeks this morning. Not good.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Rose has not always said the most intelligent things during interviews but the criticism of him has been way over the top at times.  By all accounts, he seems like a good guy and a good teammate and has worked hard to come back.  While he clearly wasn't the same player he seemed to be improving and had played in 30 of the last 31 games or so.  It's just unbelievable.    

I feel for him as a human being and as a big Bulls fan this really blows.  Also, the Bulls will absolutely not let Butler go.

Hoping for the best for Kane as well as I thought the Hawks had a better shot at the finals and a championship than the Bulls.  What a sh*tty night for Chicago sports.

I'm not a fan either - but why get mad at a guy who gets hurt?

He was never right after the 1st surgery, and deep down, he knew it. Do you really think he didn't want to get back on the floor? Ballers gotta ball. It was his life.

[tower912]

I'm not really a fan, but beating on a guy who just tore up his knee is wrong. 

[GooooMarquette]

I'm not really a fan, but beating on a guy who just tore up his knee is wrong. 

Agree.  Tough break for the guy.

[jesmu84]

Bulls are in a tough spot now.  They need to sign a PG immediately. Not to mention: Rose could very well hang them up for good, Noah is in the final year of his contract and hasn't been the same since his knee surgery, Pau is 35, Hinrich/Dunleavy are on the downswing of their careers. This and maybe next year was the Bull's championship window. Gonna have to blow it all up again soon.

Fear the deer y'all.

Fear the deer y'all.
There fixed it for ya.

[wadesworld]

Not this year, but fear the deer y'all.

I'd say the Bucks are more likely to win an NBA title in the next 10 years than the Bulls are in the next 10 years.

Derrick Rose is the Bill Walton of the new millenium.

What is the point in making a post about what your Dad thinks on a message board?
