A gift to the Windy City
Chicago is the third largest city in the United States, located in the south of Lake Michigan, is one of the largest commercial cities in the United States and an important industrial and tourist city. Due to the great influence of the cold air of Lake Michigan, the cold wind often blows into the city along the river in the autumn and winter, so it is called "Windy city". In the basketball world, especially in the NBA, Chicago is a name that must be given a strong impression. In the 1990s, the Chicago Bulls dominated the league. Since they brought Michael Jordan, the greatest player in the NBA, to the Windy City in 1984, Chicago has become a symbol of basketball.
Jordan first won the regular season MVP in 1988, and today's hero Derrick Rose was born in 1988 in Chicago, all of this is so coincidence, as if it is a kind of inheritance.
Rose showed a strong talent when he was a child, he and his three brothers in any place every day and night to play the beloved basketball, often the same basketball action and skills he mastered much faster than his brothers, soon he has surpassed his brothers, but also by the influence of his brothers, Chicago Bulls has been a dream and obsession of young Rose. Less than 10 years old, Rose attracted a large number of school scouts, basketball agents and other pursuits.
Star Shine senior high
After entering high school, Rose's talent in basketball was fully displayed, and he led Simeon (Rose's high school) to two consecutive Illinois state championships to create a history of Chicago, and the second championship season overall record is an amazing 33-1 record. In high school, Rose averaged nearly a triple-double and was an undisputed high school All-American.
Sophomore draft rose bloom
The University of Memphis is Rose's final choice, because there is a handsome Calipari, Rose knows his own basketball advantages and characteristics but also understand his shortcomings, not only in basketball to guide Rose and life, Calipari has mentioned that Rose is almost crazy about basketball, he seems never tired, he can even live in the arena at night.
Young growth is bound to be embellished by the pain of failure. In Rose's first year of NCAA, he led the University of Memphis to the finals but missed the free throw. After the failure, Rose was not discouraged but more determined to advance his NBA dream, he skipped the later college life to participate in the 2008 draft. To be drafted first overall by my childhood dream team, the Chicago Bulls, it's so nice to play for my hometown team.
Rose, who entered the league without any stage fright and was unstoppable, scored in double figures in 10 consecutive games to tie Michael Jordan's rookie season scoring record, the rookie of the Week and Month, the Rookie Player of the season, the rookie MVP, the All-Star Skills Challenge championship, In his first year, he led the Chicago Bulls to the playoffs and lost to the defending champion Boston Celtics in seven games.
In the second year, Rose continued to enrich his Arsenal. Before the draft, he was modeled after Wade. Rose not only possessed Wade's speed but also Rose's violent aesthetics and picturesque movements. Entering the All-Star is the fans' recognition and love for him, breaking the record of the youngest Bulls All-Star player in the history of Joe, looking up to his idol while constantly seeking to surpass.
2010-2011 season Derrick Rose to refresh a number of records, he continues to cash his basketball talent in the game and each time will give people a different freshness and surprise, he in the perfect display of his personal ability at the same time as the ability to lead the team, 62-20 Chicago Bulls league record first. Having been on the All-NBA team for a while, the regular season MVP is the best and most deserved tribute to Rose's season.
Heaven envy the gifted, the rose fades
"Even God is jealous of his talent," is what many NBA players said about Rose. Looking back at the first half of Rose's NBA career, the rise to the top was so quick and so short. From 2011 to the present few years, Rose was injured more than 20 times, including multiple ligament tears, meniscus tears and other major injuries, a talent who had no limit only the sky was destroyed by injuries again and again, wandering, being cut, being traded, limited playing time has become his track behind.
No one believed that rose would ever bloom again, even a leaf, but Rose never gave up, he wanted to come back, he wanted to play, he wanted to continue what was like the unfinished business of his second life.
Against fate, he's still here
Chicago Bulls, New York Knicks, Cleveland Cavaliers, Minnesota Timberwolves, Detroit Pistons, this is the team that Rose has worked for, each team has the mark of Rose's injuries, but also he has fought against the figure, he is unyielding, he does not admit defeat, he overcame himself, overcome the fate of his torture and test, He came off the bench in the first six games of the 2019-2020 Detroit Pistons season, averaging 20.8 points, 6.3 assists and 56.2% shooting in 25 minutes per game. Are you surprised to see such figures?
Are you surprised this is the performance of a player who no one once believed would ever return to the game? Six games later Rose was injured again, but I firmly believe he can come back.
Constantly adjust, just for love
In recent years, Rose is constantly adjusting the way he plays, and the accumulation and loss of multiple injuries have made him lose his previous advantages in speed and explosive power, because in his heart, how much he wants to be on the court for more days.
