I promise you its true. Also Melo will inform teams by late Monday of his decision officially. Doesn't mean he won't tell his people earlier though.

I believe that you are telling the truth as to what you heard. But are you promising that your source is telling the truth?

Rose had the same meniscus injury as Westbrook.

The big injury was the ACL and Rose came back from that and looked fine athletically.

He was just rusty during the regular season.

It's amazing isn't. Westbrook has three surgeries on the same knee comes back fine no worries. Rose has one surgery with the same injury as Westbrook yet Rose is DONE. LOL

Not exactly apples to apples.

From what I remember, Derrick's meniscus injury was the less serious one compared to Westbrook's meniscus tear. It was just bad timing on Derrick's injuries which has caused all this hoopla.

If Derrick had the meniscus injury in the Philly playoff game and the ACL tear in the beginning of last season, he would have missed only one season. It is just the handling of his rehab which has caused these doubts.

Plus, if Derrick had been in OKC instead of Chicago...I don't know if his rehab/injury return would have got so much publicity.

ACL is literally worst thing that can happen to you. Just being realistic. Melo knows how big of a risk Rose is.

get outta here man. Fast.

Actually you're less likely to reinjure your ACL a second time

Rose's issues come from play style and not something genetic like Stoudemire for example

My left ACL is torn, and my career hinges on my athletic ability to a high degree. I'm not worried so neither should you be. Literally.

Stop posting Rose injury videos.

Just terrible vibes for this thread.

If Melo takes super max money, that would really explain a lot of the poor shotmaking decisions he makes.

Last thing Knicks need to succeed is another millstone of a contract on an incomplete superstar.

Stop reading into BS coming out of LA and NY media.

Your random post is appreciated yet I still feel like crap because I have watched the mlo threads for 6 days now.

Look at this way, if he doesn't come, then he was never planning on coming, and just put us through this whole circus just to stroke his ego (or to extort more money from NY).

So he either comes or he doesn't. I'm strongly of the opinion though that he's coming, and these nobodies are just trying to get hits/views by posting attention grabbing BS.

Seriously who the hell is Ramona Shellburne and why do I care about her opinion? And Chris Broussard can take his "sauces" and disappear.

No it's not. Rose had about as clean a tear as you can have.
It's when you tear additional ligaments or suffer nerve damage that is the worst.

Hey man, this forum is THE BEST.

Just saying.. You guys have made my life a lot more fun for the past 4 days.

Kudos to everyone here for loving the bulls the same way I do. Somewhere Derrick rose is kicking back realizing how much a of freaking beast he is and ready to exploit his league next season no matter who his teammates are.

Oh.. And the best player in Europe is excited as hell to join this team.

No boozer.. Seriously, this is the best day to be a bulls fan in YEARS. If Carmelo chooses other, just know some random new poster with 4 years of lurking is proud to watch us decimaye the league this season.

If Anthony sign for what? 25 million a year than the Knicks won't have a very bright future. Add in Calderon and Smith there only will be caproom for 1 top tier FA. This won't make NYK better than a 6th seed in the East and easily a 1st round exit.

How confident fans are that we will sign Melo?
