    I think its possible to seperate performance from a performer. Tonight was rose’s moment.

    The moment tonight was not defined by a terrible crime. The moment tonight was defined by an inner belief in one’s self paying off.

    Most of the NBA world was moved by tonights performance. I can buzz kill plenty of athletes, musicians, directors etc by pointing out terrible flaws in their personal lives (roman polanski is one of my favorite directors.)

    Tonight isnt about derrick rose being a great human being, its about his performance and how he did it after all his injuries.

    That was pretty amazing. Watching his reaction right after the buzzer, the celebration with his teammates and seeing him choke up during the on-court post-game interview was interesting.

    A great day for D-Rose.The season is long and it was just one game, but he'll have the memories for a lifetime.

    I'll leave out the personal stuff this one time.

    For a few weeks last season, after Rose was unceremoniously waived by the same team that he lit up for 50 tonight, it appeared that he might have played his last game in the NBA.

    This one is for the ages.

    If Rose can get away with a gang rape, I am sure scoring 50 points isn’t out of the question.

    Great game

    Had a pretty good pass too for an open 3PT.

    He might be his healthiest since his injuries began. Recovery takes longer than a year regardless if you're playing.
