Iman Shumpert comes to mind as someone who tore his ACL on the same day as Rose and was back by January with no ill effects.

The reality is that this bulls team is a less talented one than the one that lost in 5 two years ago. And that Heat team was nothing compared to this year's version. All he's going to do is come back and take a bunch of hard hits in a losing cause.

If that's his mentality, the Bulls are screwed, since that would demonstrate a complete lack of competitiveness or leadership on Rose's part.
Maybe I'm just spoiled by getting to watch CP3. He seems to be the last of a dying breed of true floor generals at the point guard position. Nowadays, point guards seem to mostly be undersized shooting guards that lack leadership skills. That's the path Rose appears to be on.

The whole, "I would be out there on one stump" mentality is silly. He's not out saving children from burning fires - he's just playing a damn game.

He's stealing money from his employer and not doing his job despite being healthy enough to do it.
Sure, basketball is "just a game," but it's also Rose's JOB.
And by the way, his teammates are out there "on one stump" while he's sitting there fully healthy eating Skittles on the sidelines. No excuse.
