Realistically, will Rose still be a star player when he returns?

[comerb]

I don't think so. He's a guy that relied heavily on his athleticism and now he has very good reason not to trust his body. He's just not that good of a player to adjust his game.

Rose been gone so long he's starting to feel like a retired vet.

[Rocketswin2013]

I really get the feeling Rose doesn't even want to play basketball anymore.

[nathanjizzle]
