Yeah speaking from experience, that 100% contributed to my downfall as well.
Eat your asparagus kids.
If thats true thats pretty amazing Thibs or someone in the bulls hasnt yanked him aside and read him the riot act.
I remember watching his games from his rookie or 2nd year. They did a profile on him and it was revealed that he doesn't really take his diet too seriously. For example, he eats a lot of candy, skips meals, and has an overall unhealthy diet.
Nowadays, his diet could be top notch and his mentality could have matured into some who is very disciplined. But IMO, diet, health, and strength go hand in hand in hand. So if his diet still sucks and since he hasn't really played as much this season to be in top notch shape, then those could have been contributing factors to an injury like this.

This just sucks. Hate to see the best players in the league suffer career altering injuries.
Got it. Thanks. I always wondered. So if I wouldn't have pumped faked like Malik Rose, I'd still have a normal ACL. Sux!!!
Anyone else fancy Celtics in the east now? I didn't think they could beat the bulls but I see them beating the heat

I know little about sports science, and incidents happen. However, watching Rose play, I feel he was trying a little bit too hard to over-compensate his missing time.
Haha oops, edited
You think Miami has an 80% likelihood of defeating San Antonio in the event of a Spurs-Heat Finals this year???
Rose looking at a minimum of 6 months rehab. 6 months from now is start of 12/13 season. He won't be anywhere close to playing Rose like next season.
That would've been a mighty hyper-extension!
Sucks for that team and for that young man. I hope he has a speedy, full recovery. They were going along great tbh. Who knows, they still might make it.
Go yourself, Clown Shoes.
Just kidding, I hate Malone too, but I must trash talk since we're going to ass rape you es over the next two weeks.
The way Westbrook plays I wouldn't doubt if he's next.
I'm not sure that I'd quite call Rose injury-prone yet. Prior to this season he had only missed a total of four games over his 3-year career.
This season was his first season with injuries that caused him to miss extended time. He missed 27 games. The only reason I can see some people calling him injury-prone is because he missed those game due to different injuries this year. And of course, now the ACL injury.
Still, don't think I'd say he's injury-prone, at least not based on his NBA career before the 2011-12 season.
james is a ING JOKE
I honestly think with a healthy Rose they beat the heat, especially with Rip playing good...They move the ball excellent just like the Spurs, and the Bulls are easily the best defensive team...Boozer and Noah are problems in the paint and Deng is really really underrated the guy can ball, and then they have Gibson Asik Korver Brewer and Watson coming off the bench...The Bulls are stacked and I think they could have won a championship this year with a healthy Rose but that being said they dont get past boston...if Ray Ray can get healthy I think they give Miami a RUN for their money, Rondo creates so much problems...Imagine a Celtics/Spurs finals matchup wow
spurs make it that fall heat will not be tested spurs would be
heat should win those series easily in 5 games
I won't know about playing against Heat, but I'd still bet on Bulls against Celtics. Thibodeau is that good.
Thibodeau is either the second or third best coach in the league, but he unnecessarily runs his players into the ground. It almost cost them last season, when Rose twisted his ankle in the final minute, with the result already decided, against either the Pacers or Hawks (can't remember which). And this time it obviously cost them. I agree with Johnson, that it was probably bound to happen to him anyway (that many injuries in that short a time, he was probably overcompensating for something each time back and then throw in his explosiveness and the way he contorts himself on his drives), but at least they could have held it off and lessened the chances.
I know the 76ers had damn near halved the lead and they didn't want them going into game two feeling good about themselves. But you know what? That's nonsense. As if the 76ers were seriously going to challenge, let alone beat them, in this series. Thibodeau should have had them do what Pop would have, which was call for an intentional foul to get his starters out. Not even key subs should be in in that situation. Lucas, James, Brewer or Korver, Butler and Asik, should have closed it out.
That being said, I still wouldn't be shocked if this team not only still got to the Conference Finals, but gave the Heat a series.
When I found out he tore his ACL, it was a very big dissapointment. I was hoping Bulls would take out Heat, but Bring em Heat on, Spurs got this!
The problem with Ray Allen is that he has an injured number called his age!
The Spurs are nowhere near the Finals. Long way to go.
Westbrook plays so off the walls and its crazy because remarkably throughout his 4 years in HS 2 years at UCLA and 3 years in the NBA he hasnt missed a SINGLE game..9 years of playing like he does and hasnt missed a game is pretty damn impressive
After this year, he could be Finals MVP Joke.
