Rose has turf toe

[Anytime23]

Says his turf toe flared up. I never even know he had it before. Nick Friedell was just talking about it on the J-Hood Bulls postgame show.

Looks like both of our starting guards are going to have lingering issues all season. Not good.

Well...this will be troubling come playoff time. Lovely...

It was reported that he had turf toe last summer... he said that the doctors told him he might have it for the rest of his career or some shit.

Oh...looks like he's probably got it more or less under control then. But still...nagging injuries like that aren't ideal, especially for your star player. But what're you gonna do? He's still beasting it out there.

Damn I can't believe I never saw that. Maybe I just forgot.

Man this sucks. Everybody needs to bring their A game playoff time bc they can't put that same burden on him they did last season. I really hope this doesnt become a reoccurring issue. Pray it passes and never comes back.

I remembered that article once I saw this thread. I completely forgot about it last season because Rose didn't seem injured at all.

Yeah the only time I remember him being hurt was the ankle late last season and the wrist after Howard fouled him. Thanks again Howard, I had tickets to see the bulls in Miami the next night. They played without Rose, Deng and Noah!

I'm not trolling but seriously, I still think JR Smith would be a wise pickup to take mjor pressure off of Rose...His athletism will make Rose not have to do too much...get mad if you want, but in my opinion, my experiment will work and put us over the top......And Rose will play turf toe or no turf toe...turf toe didn't just appear out the clear blue....its somthing Rose has been playing with anyway......This is a more legitamate reason to get jR.........so basically I've been right all along and I've been crucified on a regualr basis for my truth in this forum......You don't have to like him, but realistically , Smith is better than Brewer, Korver, Hamilton and can score in many more ways with the ability of ball handling....I'm not knocking Hamilton, but as you can see, Hamilton is injury prone and old...When playoff time comes, will he hold up???....And if he gets hurt during the playoffs, we are in the exact boat with Rose having to do way too much...Won't get away with it with turf toe this season.....its just a matter of time before Rose gets seriously injured and can't play....then we would be fucked.........Call China now Pax.

I dealt with turf toe in high school. It really hurts your acceleration and quick movements. Not good when you're trying to steal bases or make a quick turn on a double play. Hopefully Rose has his under control.

Read this again and inderstand that JR would be a reliever to Rose's pain...Turf toe is no joke.....

Exactly my point to why JR Smith is a solution.
Smith can take some of the burden from Rose when it comes to acceleration and quick movement type plays....This is Smiths specialty.......Think about it...

JR Smith has turf brain.

Where exactly do you expect JR Smith to fit into the rotation we already have a log jam of players at the 2/3

Read on Friedells article that Rose said he has had turf toe since his 2nd year in the league

A buddy of mine has had it since his freshman year of high school and he's in the majors right now in baseball. Obviously baseball isn't as physically demanding of a sport as basketball, but if you get it under control, you can play with it with little to no ill effects. I'm just lucky that mine fully healed. It was a ***** to deal with, so I understand what Rose is going through.

I don't think Brewer and old injury prone Hhamilton is a log jam at 2 guard at all....
Korver and Watson are not 2 guards and Watson has his issues right now.....
It takes all 4 of them to equal one JR Smith....

Korver is a swingman meaning he can play the 2/3 position and Brewer is already owed more minutes than what he will be getting when Hamilton gets back

This is true.....Rose played with it last year and won mvp.....if he keeps it under control, then yes he will be fine........With a back court partner like Jr Smiths and his great athletism, Less pressure on Rose to "do it all" will definately help keep Rose's turf toe under controll.
