I told the girl I'm trying to to get with that I'm perfectly fine with Derrick Rose or Starlin Castro impregnating her.. She left kinda mad.

Totally worth it.

I thought only most Bears/White Sox fans excluding me were stupid *******s that's simple minded that can be easily be proven wrong in the future that everyone from another fan base hated it seems like some of them claiming to be Bulls fans are stupid simple minded *******s aswell.

The injuries are the same but the circumstances can still be different. Part of the reason Rose was waiting was because he had a lot of swelling in the knee that they need to wait until that goes away.

Shumpert may have had minimal swelling so he could get the sugery sooner.

We weren't talking about circumstances we're talking about injuries.

Oh Zeam Zhicago

Rose still stands to benefit from prehab (like strengthening his quads) which could pay dividends through his post-surgery rehab. I also thought there were plenty of swelling concerns prior to surgery.

I can't wait to see photos/videos of Rose in his passive motion machine.

Let the time table begin

[Kuya_Clive]

Does anyone know what kind of graft they used to reconstruct his ACl with?
I also read somewhere that Adrian Peterson is ahead of schedule, which gives me more hope with Rose's comeback

[gocubs2118]

If every thing goes as planned, I think the best case is January 1st and worst case is March. Of course I'm no doctor and I've never torn my ACL before, so what do I know.

[JordansBulls]

David West recovered in 6 months. If the same is true with Rose which I hope is the case since he is younger it would bring him back Mid November.

[Salvaged Ship]

The Bulls will be super cautious. My bet is just after All Star break.

Being younger has nothing to do with it... The human body is a complex thing, every person is different, every person recovers differently.. Work ethic is key for injuries like this cuz it's a rigorous and grueling rehab

Even with age and work ethic its all about how the human body responds to it. Its a tricky situation and even though the knee is a lot less complex than say the shoulder you cant really have a proper time table due to every single injury and recovery is different. I know you know this but just kind of adding on.
