If we have the chance to get D Rose in a trade would the Rockets be contenders for a title ? I know its day dreaming but then again he did tore his Acl and might not be the same! Adding DRose to the line up will be nice ! http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...-need-to-cut-ties-with-their-franchise-player

Rose is the ultimate flash in the pan. 1 good MVP year and he's gone. The injuries he suffered were career ending injuries too. Back spasms? career ending. ACL? career ending. Ankle injury? Well, you might recover from that only. Remember Mcgrady and his back spasms? I don't think he was ever the same after I saw that. Coupled w/ a torn ACL? Forget it!
Did you rmr Dwade with back spasms with injuries ? Tmac got old man that wa the main reason of the trade duh ! Blake griffen had injuries too lol RB Adrian Peterson had the same injury as DRose begining of the season but look at him now on the Vikings...
Every GM in the league would want him if they could get him, but you're crazy if you think that he's available for trade at this time. Maybe if he doesn't look like himself by next year its possible, but the guy was an elite player at the time of injury.
But none of your examples had BOTH career ending injuries. Wade, back spasms, no ACL. Peterson, ACL, no back spasms. Rose has BOTH.
he was not elite at time of injury ! He didnt even play the whole season he was injured most of last season ?
So you dnt think Age is a big factor at all? that if you get Injured with back spasms and torn acl ? career is over ?
Why ask a question with such a negative hope lol Noone knew James harden was really going to be a Rocket lol But it happened !
Age is a factor, sure. But a combination of back spasms and torn ACL. I don't know man. Tough call. Emmitt Smith and Peterson weren't what they were before the injury that's for sure. At least, I don't think so for Peterson because I don't really follow the Vikings.
Oh please. Back spasms and ACL injury wasn't what stopped McGrady. His age was. Also Peterson is lighting it up again in Minny.
