If dude is medically cleared now why is it any guarantee he'll feel "right" next season?
I don't get why everyone is assuming he'll play next season opening night if he's too scared to play now.
Has Derrick Rose lost YOUR respect? SRS

No not at all
Its his body, he could play when he feels like it.
Y'all think because you watch the games and buy tickets, that Derrick Rose owes you something.
He's going get paid whether you don't watch or don't pay for a ticket.
The NBA machine has been in place for a long time and will continue whether you respect Derrick Rose or not

This.
One issue i have is that during all this time, you would think Rose would've handed a blank check to the best dermatologist on the planet to clear that acne up.
Come on bro, it's time.
Durant needs to make that his top priority in the offseason, too.

[quote name="DirtyBuhbuhnew"]You've never competed on the level of physicality as D Rose. That was what I was getting at. You basically said, "If I can be fine after tearing my ACLs, then D rose should be just as fine" which is very unrealistic.[/quote]No I basically didn't. What I basically said was that I have torn both of my ACLs.
people were saying that critics don't have a right to say anything because they haven't tore their ACL.
I have. so I'm responding to THAT line of reasoning. if you're not one of the people who said that line of reasoning, then don't worry about my response to that line of reasoning, because it doesn't concern you.

Well, recovery time for an ACL is usually 8-12 months.
He had surgery in mid May of 2012. Opening night will be late October 2013, which would be 17 & 1/2 months from surgery.
It doesn't take longer than 17 1/2 months to return from an ACL tear. So it's a safe assumption.

As someone living in Chicago, its pretty damn dissapointing.. Wish he would come out and say he isn't coming back already, but I did make some cash from betting people he wouldn't return. Rumor is he lives in Deerfield which is pretty close to me. Might have to make a stop one day and find him lol

Derrick Rose doesn't care about my respect and doesn't need it. He has to do what is best for him so that he can continue to earn his multiyear guaranteed maximum contract whether or not he plays.

Agreed.
And if Lebron would have did this, y'all would have wanted him to be given the death penalty

Also big point, why return if your gonna lose. Chicago needs another scorer at the 2. Jimmy plays good defense, but OJ or JR at the 2 would be perfect.

I ******g hate this logic. Why come back if there gonna lose?! Really? So in that case why should 8 seeds play #1 seeds anymore if they're underdogs every game? or why should a boxer who isn't favored to win a bout even show up?
Its called heart dude. Your teammates been scrapping and beat a healthy, good team in Brooklyn. Sure Miami is favored be we all have seen how good Chicago plays Miami. Go out there and go all out. That's all I'm saying

Can't even say this though. It takes 8-12 months to physically recover, who's to say he will mentally recover by then? He's physically fine just not mentally. It might take him 3 years to mentally recover

He hasn't lost my respect but I definitely question his heart and competitive fire, any diehard competitor worth his salt would've at least attempted to play by now.
If I was his teammate though it'd be a different story, I'd treat him like KG treated Ray Allen after he went to Miami.....ignore and look right thru him.

Yes
Doctor cleared him, his knee has healed. I don't expect him to be back playing 40 min a game but he should have been back the last week or two of the regular season. Building up strength and chemistry preparing for the playoffs.
