  1. Rose 50pt game with Wolves..
    Final play :
    "Ball passed on to Exum.. Exum takes a corner three and the shot was blocked by who else.. Derrick MVP Rose ❤️🥳"
    I still remember that game like it's happened yesterday.. One emotional moment to remember from NBA for the rest of my life

  2. I can't say how much i respect Jo not just as a player, but as a person, passionate and honest to a fault.
    He was not a particularly talented player skill wise, but he made up for it with his sheer will of competitiveness and work ethic. Frankly, he carried the bulls for a good stint after D got hurt.
    I remember how excited i was every time i got to watch their games back in the day, Jo, Derrick, Taj, those guys gave their all for the franchise.
    Thankfully, i got my #1 shirt just before Rose was literally kicked out of chicago by those douchebags at the front office. My favourite player of all time.

  3. Just hearing them speak saying no.1 pick, carry his team, handle pressure for like 2-4 years. Then you got lebron 7 years in Cleveland.

  4. D Rose is the one who got me into basketball, he exudes everything I want to be as a person, he was magical. I've watched hundreds of games after that, present and past, but he'll always remain my favourite player ever. Still support any team he's on and he's probably the only "celebrity" I would cry in front of if I ever met him.

  5. I remember that first game vs Boston that series. That was one of the BEST games over ever watched from him. I was in awe the whole game, he put on a virtuoso performance. That was his coming out party for sure. Youngest MVP ever. He was on his way to a HOF career but sadly injuries robbed him and the fans. It’s impressive that he still in league though.

  6. I truly do hope the bulls retire his jersey, he was everything for bulls fans

  7. Great episode guys – definitely agree with other people in these comments! Get D Rose on the pod if you can! Would be amazing to see/hear! His basketball story 'Pooh' is an amazing/emotional watch!

  8. When I saw Rose being the only one not dancing at the allstar game with the rest of the allstars while they were being introduced.. that’s the moment I knew how humble/shy he was.

  9. Derrick was a beast before the injury. He lost his soul after that wasn't the same in the head

  10. It's a shame DRose had such rotten injury luck. He had game changing talent that was unusual for smaller players. He was gonna be an all time great. People's champ is a great descriptor for him though. Cause it's hard to hate on Rose.

  11. Jabari Parker defending him to that foolish reporter during his introductory press conference tells you everything you need to know about how Chicago feels about Pooh/D Rose
