It seems that you're happy that Lebron has beaten the Bulls. You're a Lebron stan.

Lebron James is a extremely talented, yet lucky player. He had been injury free during his career, while catching breaks as his opponents have been besieged with injuries over the years.

Haha lucky. Yeah, ok.

I don't think it's necessarily a lack of passion for the game. As someone who's had both ACLs repaired, I can tell you that you never EVER get that feeling of indestructibility back once you've sustained knee injuries like that. Toss in that Rose seems more concerned with his earning potential in his next contract and his life after basketball physically, and I can definitely see why he doesn't go "balls out" anymore. Don't agree with it, but now I understand his motivation.

Well based on his 'tunnel vision' comments that appears to be true. But he is not preforming or conducting himself in a way that helps his future earning potential. Unless you mean he is hedging his future by holding back to avoid a major injury which should be a clear red flag for all to stay away.

Can you elaborate? From everything I've read and heard from people/players who have had the procedure, the vision issues usually stop after 2-3 weeks. He had the surgery what, 2 months ago?

All it would take is a quick google search to realize your assumption is incorrect. You must've misinterpreted what you've read.

It would be nice if Rose is still experiencing trouble with his eye and that's the cause of his play because he's been awful. Maybe you're right....I really hope so.

Check the stats bruh...8000 more posts than you. You don't know shit about me. Saying that Lebron is lucky means that you are basketball-Special person. Lebron is a great player...who had his two best players get injured in the playoffs...and still put a foot in the Bulls' ass...and the Bulls were not "besieged with injuries".

Go to your room with that bullshit.

The guy was at best an average shooter before the eye injury. It doesn't seems to me that after it he is going to get better than he was before. They should try to trade him as soon as they can. This team will not win a championship because of their Garfield Goose and friend. They have no freeking clue on how to build a championship team. Both of those toads are caught up in their own ego, particularly Paxson. It is too bad but in their depth of ignorance they never saw that teams need quality at skill positions. Instead, we got crap.

Yeah. Someone should tell them they need quality at skill positions!

yeah Rose is likely the first MVP to not make the hall

unless they **** over Iverson which i could see happening...Iverson did what he wanted to do and said what he wanted to say and his play style is one that many hate

Iverson is a first ballot HOFer. He will make it for sure. Rose will most likely not make it. I don' see him turning his career around.

All "skill" players. All below NBA average playing ability. That is half of the Bulls team.

I think you mistakenly misread what I wrote.

The use of the word "luck" was in reference to the injuries sustained by his opponent's best players during his two title wins. That word "luck" also could be in reference to him teaming up with two other franchise players to form a superteam in both Miami and Cleveland.

All that being said, the guy is an awesome and dominant talent.

This is why I was saying the criticism of Rose's play this season is not warranted.

KC is supporting what you and RamTheBullsFan discussed on this site last week in regards to the true severity of Rose's injury.

He gets criticized if he sits out until healthy and gets criticized when he comes back to the court before he's healed. It's a shame that some of our hardcore fans are such idiots.
