Not to get too off topic, because this belongs in sports and not shoes, but it's not like he was 100% completely fine and then he does the hop step and BOOM, there it goes. It's probably more like that one move for whatever reason was the straw that broke the camel's back. You said it yourself, it was on a routine hop step. So how did he blow his knee on a routine hop step? Something wasn't right there.Derrick Rose really isn't the type to go full speed on every possession. That's really more of John Wall's style.
People gotta stop bringing up 'reckless play' in citing his last two injuries.
His ACL injury was on a routine hop step.
When he tore his meniscus he wasn't even making a play. It was even more of a freak accident than the first one.
I agree with you overall. But looking at a player like Rose, you don't see many other PG's with his style and ability, maybe only Westbrook. I know other PG's get injured, but we aren't having this conversation about CP3, Parker, Curry, and so on, none of whom come close to matching Rose's athleticism.
