Rose complained about soreness in his right knee on Tuesday and a MRI confirmed a torn meniscus.He will need to have surgery to repair the torn meniscus and when he might return is unknown.

Now I wish the Bulls would have picked up Dragic from the Suns. Can't believe Rose is out again. Could this be the end?

Curse of the One and Dones.
More often than not the early entries have injury problems.
Lots of 1st and 2nd year players getting hurt the last few years.

Are you saying it's better to come straight from High School (Lebron, Kobe, Kevin Garnett)? Are you saying he should have stayed all four years like say maybe Grant Hill, D. Wade, etc?

You can't come straight out of high school anymore.

I'm saying that a lot of early entry players have had injury plagued careers...Tmac, Jermaine O'Neal, Rose, etc.
Chris Broussard wrote an excellent article on the subject several years ago, I've been looking for it.
That's not the only reason, because a 6' 2" player whose game relies on a 40" vertical is only gonna last so long anyway,but maybe turning pro at nineteen and playing 100 games a year has something to do with his injuries.

I believe the first 7 or 8 draft picks this year all are injured. Pretty sure. That's kind of insane. Doesn't matter though, when money is involved nothing will change. It'll only get worse, like it has now.

Well at least he is donating his salary to Charity while he is sitting on the bench minus the small amount he keeps for his recruiting efforts.
