Rose is rusty and on the mend. A healthy Rose is a superstar, he's not underrated at all. A hobbled Rose is just a sad story.(BRoyesque) The excitement of playing in Chicago pumped him up and he probably overdid it. If I were his coach I'd have him bow out of the team USA. Maybe the logic is that if he's going to get injured again, better in FIBA than preseason. That gives the Bulls more time to get an exception and sign someone. Who knows? If he does, Lillard will make the squad as Irving's backup
I agree. It's hard to overrate someone that hasn't played in two years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
