Derrick Rose is one of the most regrettable players in world basketball history. Strength, incredible speed, intelligent play and outstanding scoring ability are what people remember Rose in her prime.

Since Michael Jordan, the Chicago Bulls have been struggling to find their lost position for a long time. With the first pick in the 2008 NBA Draft, the Bulls decided to bring in Derrick Rose, the guy who just led the University of Memphis to 38 wins out of 40 games in the NCAA Division 1 (America’s Top Student League). ).

Rose quickly adapted to the top environment, and then rose to become a top star in her second season playing in the NBA. At the age of 22, Rose is the youngest player in NBA history to receive the MVP award (best player) of the season. Rose was once expected to inherit Jordan and lead the Bulls to rediscover the glory of the 90s.

Career ruined by injury

Rose has an explosive style of play, taking advantage of her speed and superiority to score points in the rush into the middle of the opponent’s dense defence. “Derrick Rose is one of the best physical players in the NBA. He uses his physical strength to score points. He’s very fast and the best stunner in the league,” Bleacher Report said. rhetoric when talking about Rose in 2012.Rose’s aggressive style of play began to be dissected more in season 4. Rose has a habit of landing on one foot after scoring situations or disputes in the air. Even more dangerous when Rose chose the heel as the first point to land, instead of the toe like many other players. This puts a lot of pressure on the ankles, ankles and knees, which can lead to damage to ligaments, joints or meniscus.Many analysts predict that Rose could face serious injuries if she does not change her playing habits. Concerns became real when Rose’s knee related injuries began to appear more frequently during the 2011/12 season. Rose averaged 21.8 points and 7.9 assists, but he played 39 out of 82 games of the season due to various injuries.

April 28, 2012 marked a great tragedy in Rose’s career. In her first play-off game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Rose ruptured her anterior cruciate ligament after a breakthrough near the basket. Rose took 12 months of treatment and recovery to be able to play again. This injury opened a series of dark days in Rose’s career.

Rose’s career in the last 3 seasons at the Bulls was like a tragic love story. Rose always comes back strong every time she recovers, but the injuries keep coming after to bring everything down.

Bad luck still followed when Rose switched to play for the New York Knicks. Here, Rose tore the meniscus of her left knee and required surgery. This is Rose’s fourth knee injury in five years.

The style of play that is not afraid of collision is a big reason why Rose’s career has not been able to reach the highest level.

For the 2017/18 season, Rose moved to the Cleveland Cavaliers, but things got worse when he began to experience psychological instability. On November 24, 2017, Rose voluntarily left the Cavaliers with the reason of “reassessing the future in the NBA”. The consecutive injuries have eroded her spirit and made Rose gradually lose faith in herself.

Consistency comes with basketball

There was a time when fans believed that Rose’s career had come to an end, but fortunately Rose began to re-evaluate the gameplay and accept the change. Rose now no longer overuses breakthrough attacks directly into the basket, but uses long throws to score more points.

Rose changed the perception of how to play, and also changed her mind about her position in the NBA. If before, Rose always assumed himself to be the leading player in every team when he arrived, now he accepts the role of super substitute or player role (player plays a certain role in the team). ).

According to statistics from ESPN, Rose played an average of 26.6 minutes in 101 games in the last 2 seasons. The less competition is necessary when that is the way to help Rose stay in shape always at the most stable level.

On November 1, 2018, Rose had an explosive performance to score 50 points to help the Timberwolves beat the Utah Jazz with a score of 128-125. This is also the best scoring record Rose has so far in her career. The fact that a player has the ability to score 50 points in the NBA is not too surprising, but this is especially true when it is Rose, who seemed to have to retire soon due to injuries.

After many ups and downs in her career, Rose began to play well again in the past 2 seasons.

The former MVP burst into tears and screams right after the match ended. It was a man’s tears of happiness and emotion when he was pent-up for so long. “Basketball fans around the world should feel happy for Rose. Today’s story is proof that don’t give up, miracles can happen. Congratulations boy,” Dwyane Wade said excitedly about the battle. Rose’s 50 points on social networks.

Rose is no longer as explosive as he was in his youth, but his appeal is still great with NBA fans. The positive effect of the 50-point performance and consecutive matches that led the Timberwolves to victory helped Rose receive more than 2 million votes in the 2019 NBA All-Star poll.

Rose was among the top players in the NBA All-Star 2019 poll, but he was still absent due to not being selected by the professional team. However, this is a great motivation for Rose to be confident to continue playing. “In terms of money, I’ve saved enough. Basketball is love. I feel like I can still play basketball,” said Rose.

After many seasons wandering to different teams and persistent injuries, Rose now knows what to do to preserve a career that has so many tragedies. Currently, Rose is still playing stable when averaging 18.1 points and 5.6 assists after 50 games in the 2019/20 season in the Detroit Pistons shirt.
