    Agreed. BUT..who are we to know how his knee and body is responding to his type of play?? Only he knows and the kids toughness and character have never been a question. He's actually been known as a very tough guy that played thru many injuries.

    What I was saying is I think the media made him a consensus top 5 player more than his play. I think he's more Russell Westbrook in terms of talent level than the top tier guys.

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    What I said what that a rational team would consider trading him. Not considering it is irrational. Trading him depends on the market, and maybe they can't get good value, but I'd quietly probe.

    I would get a star that wants to play for you.

    We'll just have to agree to disagree then. Rose in my mind was top 5 Pre injury. Could really care less where the media ranks him.

    With his talent u don't wait n see how he plays? Whether it be this year in playoffs or next season before trading him? I understand atleast probing tho lol

    In your opinion was rose a top 5 player Pre injury?? If not give me the 5 ahead of him.

    Rose loves chicago. Chicago is his home town. He wants to win. Maybe you guys forgot how good he was because hes been out for a year now. I dont know why guys are knocking his personality. Humble player. The bulls organisation let him decide whens hes ready to play. He is still contributing from a coaching stand point.

    His team is doing the same thing without him as with him. Name me the other top 4 that can do that.

    People used to think he was a sociopath in college if i remember correctly lol. I dont buy that, but hes always kind of rubbed me the wrong way. Hell, i dont like Steve Nash for the same reason.

    No. He's not very basketball smart. He's bulldog, and he can play. But he's not great and won't be.

    Rose wasn't top 5 before his injury.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    Go to any Bulls forum or community (Google only takes a second). They are starting to see just how much he's been baiting the nation with his "Only God knows" answers.
