Derrick Rose - Basketball's Greatest WHAT IF?

[@JoeVincentPresents]

Hey everyone, this is an extension to my older Derrick Rose video. I cleaned up some of the audio, but mostly left the original stuff intact. I get asked to put the triumphant 50pt game into it all the time, and since it was a very popular video I decided I'd finally get around to it. There is no Voice Over narration this time, as it was an older video and it felt odd to switch from one style to the other mid-video.

[@shanealan7493]

We all know the injuries, but as a Bulls diehard and Illinois native… Derrick was the chosen one. It truly felt like he was going to bring it home every. single. show. Just like Vincent, Joe.

[@stevenboykin7255]

It's crazy to know that no one has come close to drose since his injuries. This man was legit an anomaly in the NBA. Yes, we have Westbrook, John wall, morant, and kyrie. All of the combined created Drose in one player. It's like the nba drafted bites and pieces of Drose and spread him out amongst different teams. If you watch the interview with Noah, he embodies what we all still feel about being robbed. All he needed was rest and proper landing techniques such as Westbrook getting in training.

[@lilmaestro358]

Derrick Rose to chicago is what Lebron is to Cleveland: The Chosen One

[@yourHandleShouldBeAtLeast3...]

​@lilmaestro358 never thought of it like that but true. Different pressure one to bring a title to a deprived city... the other to bring the city out of the shadow and back into glory. In my opinion I say rose had it harder. To be the first u can do it however u want. To bring glory back u have 2 do it the first time and then at least one more time to get out of a shadow.

[@orestes1984]

It's truely sad the help that Derrick Rose got was Carlos Boozer.... The Bulls managment is a clusterfuck, and as per usual they have since traded away proven talented players that have flourished at other teams. Now I'm not saying Boozer wasn't good, but he was a shadow of himself when he played at Utah... and that contract... I don't care if you drafted Noah and Deng, get the man a proper offensive screening player so he didn't have to play Lebron one on one and it might have been a different story.

[@shanealan7493]

@@orestes1984 I pretty much agree about Carlos “Consolation Prize” Boozer. Bulls brass whiffed on LBJ, Wade and Bosh so all we had to scrape up was Booze, who in his own respect was a pretty good Pick & Roll player at the time. Chicago fans do deserve a better fandom pretty much all around.

[@Cochopper]

Every single time Derrick plays a game anywhere in that stadium or audience he always gets cheers and attention, and when you watch his prime you instantly know why. Really makes me wish I could've seen that awesome era in action

[@shaanajaz8541]

He changed league history not just by being the youngest mvp ever and having rules named after him, but also getting hurt and changing the entire landscape and future of the league. The nba and a lot of players legacies would look a lot different if drose just didn’t get hurt

[@kpippen8]

Man the “what if” with d rose always just hits me different. I’m just happy to tell my future kids I got to witness his greatness.

[@BigbirdhuntsVt]

I remember his first couple years he single handedly reinvigorated my love for the game. He was incredible too watch

[@bmyles1006]

Yall youngins just had to be there. He was absolutely insane.

[@cavsfan5236]

He was my guy when Bron left the Cavs. Truly was that guy, feel bad for those who didn’t witness his greatness

[@lvl5charmander]

his 50 pts game brought tears 😢

[@claytonspaford6222]

I’m not from Illinois and started watching after the MJ and Kobe glory days. I did not have a “favorite” team but watching Rose lit a fire in me at a young age. He was not like anyone else ever. And after his injury’s it broke my heart. I have watched his 50 point game dozens of times and every time I cry because I can still see how passionate he is and how much he loves the game even tho his body has betrayed him countless times. I honestly don’t know you as a person and you definitely don’t know me but I love that man.

[@Piripiao_YT]

*I'm just glad I was able to witness him at his absolute peak of his powers, the crazy thing was he's just barely scratching the surface, the youngest MVP ever at 22 and could've had an even better prime as he got older but the basketball Gods had other plans, as a Bulls fan it's still gut wrenching to this day what transpired on April 2012, it's a nightmare that I wish would be erased. At the end of the day, he'll always be my fave player ever, and I'm glad he's still going strong after all those years ago, he deserves to get his number retired to the rafters one day.*

[@Titit355]

He is the player who plays like there is no tommorow. Always giving his best in every game. All of his games is so exciting to watch... For me he is the best!

[@rickykeung2804]

That dunk on Dragic gives me chills every time… one of the coldest dunks ever!!

[@jodykendall7519]

Loved this man from day one and the fact that my Timberwolves picked him up brought me so much joy. So as I watched this happen, him getting 50, made me cry. We were as everyone says we were robbed of greatness, but for that one night we got to experience it again and it was wonderful 👏👏👏

[@blazen2000208]

This one is extra special to me ... Thank you sir.

[@roddasilva4288]

[@TeutobergForestryService]

His style of play made him injury prone. Double edged sword. But I will agree, it was amazing to watch.

[@PanagiotisAraujo11]

My favourite point guard and my top3 favourite player,along with LeBron and Kobe. DRose was one of a kind,the most unique player ever. Too big,to strong,to fast,to good!Yes it's a big what if(the biggest in my humble opinion)but at the same time,is a definition and the epitome of never give up. Cause like Derrick said after the injuries he work his ass off,never quit and became a better person and version of himself. His tears in the 50 point game,was one of the most emotional moments in the NBA. That day not only Derrick cried,but all of us DRose fan's did. All the best Derrick,keep inspiring us. A big fan from Greece.

[@calebleuciuc670]

Regardless of what rose did, he was in my eyes one of the greats. Youngest mvp in history. Carried a historic franchise at such a young age. Didn’t have the longevity but his run was something to watch

[@therealThundergod132]

I still think about that game he had in Minnesota. Dude was playing with heart that night. You could feel how much pain and heart he was playing with all night. Forever one of the biggest what if situations in sports.

[@Thelostsoul556]

One of the biggest What Ifs in NBA history

[@rezarfar]

In sports history.

[@Colmenero444]

​@rezarfar yup. In all of world sports.

[@rezarfar]

@@Colmenero444 eh thats questionable, you have some pretty big one in Football (Soccer) and American football too. R9 Ronaldo comes to mind.

[@rezarfar]

@@Baddknewz R9 Ronaldo won the Ballon D'or (the equivalent to the MVP for Football, or Soccer), at 21 years old. Derrick Rose was 22 when he when he won the MVP. The difference between the Ballon D'or and the NBA's MVP is that the Ballon D'or is a global award and is a award handed out to one of thousands of players around the world and the MVP is an award handed out to NBA players playing in North America out of less than 500 total players. Better luck next time kid 🤣

[@rezarfar]

@@Baddknewz actually if you care to look at lists of worst sports injuries ever, R9 Ronaldo is normally 1st. Because of the lost potential, this guy was set to be the Michael Jordan of Football, he still had a decent career but what could have been if he didn't catch that first injury would have been something truly special. Think Messi but greater.

[@ChairmanMeow1]

We were absolutely robbed as Bulls fans. One of the fastest players Ive ever seen in my life, maybe THE fastest. And when he got there he just exploded. Unreal athletics. I give him a ton of respect for always coming back somehow. Always came with full effort. He had the heart of a champion.

Any video about Derrick Rose brings me close to tears man. Forget the fans, imagine how the player feels. He must have expected so much from his career, it is always sad to wonder. I love the NBA but no one in the current league makes me want to play the game the way DRose did. And it's wild talking about him this way when he is still playing, but it would be a dream for him to win a championship.

[@mescudic]

DRose was the reason I started playing basketball back when I was a teen . He will forever be a legend

When i first saw rose play for the bulls i think it was his rookie year but he got me watching basketball again. After jordan retired from the wizards i hadn't watched a game again til D.

[@user-ui8sp5th4g]

Thank you for doing Derrick Rose justice, Joseph Vincent. D-Rose was dealt a horrible hand in his career, especially while he was in Chicago. It's tragic to always wonder what he would have become if he hadn't gotten hurt so many times....... especially after the first ;(. You, however, are showing the people who never got to witness his glory how great he truly was on the court. He was a force to reckon with and had a lot of the pros scared. He will always be one of my all-time greats in many people's eyes. How could you hate on him? He is a great person and a good example of what dedication to your dream can accomplish. The man has overcome so many obstacles and inspired many.

ive always been a basketball fan since the day i could walk but man.. Derrick made the game SPECIAL. ive never been so glued to a screen, never been so dedicated to a player like i was and continue to be like i am with D-Rose. hes a warrior, defying all odds. this shit made me cry. i remember watching this when you first posted it but damn.. it brings the same emotions as it did last time i watched this

Wierd story, but I was living in a really small basement suite a few years ago, not making much money but always looking to get myself out. I used to watch your videos regularly just to have something hype in the background and keep me going, I'd cast that to the tv and just let it play til 3 am sometimes. I still do that with NFL throwback sometimes when I can't sleep, but I'm in a much better situation now. Thank you for doing these man. 🤙🏻🍻 My favourite video is your Patrick Willis one by the way.

[@stevenboykin7255]

I just wrote that as a message at the top. 4th quarter with 1 min and 30 seconds left in a freaking PLAYOFF GAME. Not a regular season but one that would have gotten them to the finals. Everyone wanted to see the Bulls vs. Heat Game. That sorry fat slob of a drunk coach robbed us all by not taking his superstar player out. The crazy thing about it is they were up by 12 points with 1 min and 30 seconds left. That still upsets me until this day. Drose body needed to rest. All of us know that while playing any sport, rest is needed to help prevent injuries. Case and point with Drose. I used to give players shit for sitting out when tired. Everyone has learned from drose sad story on what not to do. Coaches and GMs learned as well. Fake injuries or sickness to rest a player to avoid fines.

Thank you so much for this video. I didn't find out about derrick rose until 2011. He instantly became one of my favorite players with his kick ass and take names later. Until this day i blame his coach for not taking him out of the game in that 2012 playoff game against philly. I appreciate you for showing the people what caused his injury. Up by 12 in the 4th quarter with 1 minute and 30 seconds left on the clock in a playoff. Why are starters in the game? Why is your super star in the game at that? Drose body was fatigue from the back to back games coupled with getting beat up after driving the lanes. Injuries tend to happen with no rest.

Man D Rose was just greatness, unique blend of power, speed, athleticism & killer instinct. I have no doubts was going to impose his will on the Cavs and lead us to a 7th championship. It was just a matter of time. I’ve never been more devastated by a sports injury and probably never will. We saw his brilliance for only a couple of years and were robbed of his true prime. 25/8 & 22/8 at age 22/23. Lord only knows what numbers he would’ve hit as he matured and evolved into something even more special. Mad love to him still being in the NBA.
