My question "time is up" what does that mean? Is that like a threat? Are you saying "Rose you HAVE to play or you are off the team". Yeah that will help. Seems like a pretty empty threat.

That would be great, through him into the payoffs for his first game. He gets injured again and then we can do this again next season. Give him until the beginning of next season and try to win it all the next couple of years. But there is a fair chance his explosiveness will not be the same.

He's going to boo him until he either plays or voluntarily gives up his paycheck. That should work, right? Seems like a solid strategy to me.

Seriously.

We barely won the series against Brookyln, and now we are up against the HEAT. Even if Rose came back our team still has a lot of injuries/complications, so I am not sure if it's worth the risk to put Rose back in in a series of with the Heat who just swept the last series they were in.

I depise the Heat with a passion, and I would love it if a battered and beat down Bulls team kicked them out of the series, but I am also realistic that I am not sure they can win 4 against them. Not impossible, but I would really be surprised, with or without Rose.

Yes "Derek", your time is up. A random nobody on an internet message board just said so. I hope you dont turn your shoes in over this.

You *******s really cant wait a year to get him 100%?

Derrick Rose is going to risk getting injured again because some Chicago fans are over-anticipating his return? Jumping into playoff ball nonetheless? He needs to test his knee in preseason and regular season before risking further injury.

Sometimes I wonder who the hell some people think they are. If he doesnt wanna return just yet out of precaution, its his choice. Respect it.

The "now" generation. I want it now. Whatever happened to patience?

I agree that I wouldn't want him to return before he was 100% healthy, but he was cleared a long time ago and it seems that the reason that he didn't return was because he was scared.

The point is that great players WANT and BEG to play even before they are cleared to play. They want to get back earlier to help their teams. Other players on the bulls have already fought back and played through their injuries. Derrick is doing the opposite. He's been cleared for months and his exact quote said nothing about "testing his knee" or "risking further injury." He said that he wasn't "mentally ready." His own words.

I hate this logic. The odds are the Bears will not win the bowl this season, does that mean we should sit out Cutler, Marshall, and Forte until we have the perfect team?

Rose is cleared to come back, the doctor that did the surgey said his knee is stronger then the other one. Its a mental game right now, and apparently he isnt strong enough mentally to get back into a game.
