Steve9347 Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 12, 2013 -> 10:14 AM) I've had that recurring nightmare. We get strung along for another 3-4 seasons, hoping he gets back but he never does. Meanwhile Thibs is good enough to keep the franchise winning to the point where we're stuck in no mans land in the draft for the foreseeable future. Stuck being "good" but not "good enough." Luckily that won't happen. Rose will come back even stronger/better than before ala Peterson. We shock Miami in the ECF and win a 7 game Finals against the Thunder. And then we suffer through a terrible baseball season until a mediocre football season starts. You forgot about the scheduling issue when the Stanley Cup Final and NBA Finals both need to be figured out in the same building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 12, 2013 -> 04:49 PM) Very not smart basketball. I don't know how many more times they could have dribbled into traffic and gotten their pockets picked, as well as leaving shooters on the 3 point stripe. We were in good shape until Leonard was beating our bigs on drives and going over the top of them. Deng/Gibson/Butler had woeful games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Good Im glad they made him wait. The dream was basically that he had been rushed back, so Id rather they play it extremely safe as the Bulls are likely in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 "I don't have a set date," he said. "I'm not coming back until I'm 110%. Who knows when that can be? It can be within a couple of weeks. It could be next year. It could be any day. It could be any time. It's just that I'm not coming back until I'm ready." Rose said that "right now" he's "probably in the high 80s" when asked to give a percentage, adding that he is "far away" from a return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I'm not worried about Derrick. Reinjury is almost unheard of at this point. It wouldn't blow my mind if he gets nicked up in other ways here and there from being out of playing shape, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 QUOTE (sircaffey @ Feb 11, 2013 -> 04:47 PM) It's not the fact that we have a ton of those kinds of players, it's the fact we have them. IIt's an indication of where overall athleticism has gone. Soon we'll have a 7 footer that moves like a guard used to. Athletes have always progressively gotten bigger, stronger, and faster. I just so happen to think with the advances in training and nutrion that have occurred the past couple decades, the gap in athleticism between the '90s and now is probably the largest gap in sports history. Not just basketball. I think the difference between the mid 70's and mid 90's was a lot larger than the difference between the 90s and today. Look how skinny everyone was in the 70s. In the 90s, they hit the weight room. I do think the NBA has become 1000 times more enjoyable vs. 8-12 years ago when many times the scores were in the 70s and 80s.

All of the stars had retired/declined and there weren't nearly enough good players from the late 80's/early 90's drafts to replace them. That's the main reason they put in the hand checking rules, no one could score. Edited February 12, 2013 by ZoomSlowik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at some research, the re-injury rate for ANYONE who gets ACL repair in the span of 5 or more years post-surgery is about 5%. Odds are already good, then consider that Derrick is a world class athlete with all kinds of resources and a far more vigorous rehabilitation than your average guy. Basketball isn't as unkind to ACL's as some other sports as well. From the looks of it, it seems that his chances of re-injury are about the same that he injured it the first time -- always possible, but not likely.

soxsoxsoxsox Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 sit out the season wut KC Johnson - While always in conservative camp on DRose's return, never thought sitting out season-a maybe Rose raised to @JeffZillgitt-could happen.

Thanx, good to know that...I was always under the impression that a surgically repaired knee was more prone to reinjury, glad that's not the case.

This sucks. Derrick was quoted saying that he's nowhere near ready and that he's currently in the high 80% range in terms of progress. It shouldn't take 3 more months for him to get those 11 or 12% should it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitetrain8601 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 12, 2013 -> 06:35 PM) Derrick was quoted saying that he's nowhere near ready and that he's currently in the high 80% range in terms of progress. It shouldn't take 3 more months for him to get those 11 or 12% should it? It might. I think this is a combination of several things. 1) Derrick's camp being too cautious. 2)Reinsdorf being cautious (he did say he wanted Jordan to sit out the year he broke his leg) and 3) Rose not trusting his knee because it doesn't feel the same as it did before he got injured. No doubt in my mind, Rose is 100% physically fit to do what he needs to do, but from all inklings, he still seems unsure. Sitting out 16+ months for an ACL surgery is unheard of though. There's a point of being overcautious and I think everyone is guilty. They have to understand, he won't be 100% healthy(physically and mentally) until he plays.
