He landed on Kyrie's foot...any time a player lands on the foot of someone else, a sprained ankle is the result. It's just a light sprain, as he continued to play...he is fine! :-)

Andddddd he gets his first DNP of the year. If I was a Bulls fan I'd be frustrated; injuries in general, just seems to surround this guy..

Taj missed the game due to a sprained ankle. I guess he is fragile too. A sprained ankle is not a big deal. I wouldn't call him fragile just because he hurt his ankle. It's more about being unlucky to land on Kyrie's foot. Or maybe Kyrie realized he couldn't score against Rose so he slid his foot under Rose (Like Jalen Rose did to Kobe).

They probably wanted to get him a little more treatment so they probably sat him out due to it being a back to back, with travel. Plus its game 3 of the season. No need to risk him hurting it more in a game vs the Wolves.

Taj hasn't missed the last 2 seasons with injury either.....

Obviously this happened because he doesn't wear Nikes.

He is not a hard worker. Took the easy route to get to the nba playing for calipari did horrible in school academically because he didn't apply himself when presented a free education. He was a 1 and done in college. Later comes out cheated at school violating ncaa rules thus bringing sanctions. Him and his bum coach both bail on the school they screwed over. In the playoffs said himself he could come back against Miami if he felt his team had a shot but chose the Armani suit instead of a jersey and sneaks.

Sorry but I gotta disagree.

For someone who collects Kyrie, might not want to jump to the "fragile" conclusion so quickly lol

"Coach Thibodeau said on Tuesday that Rose is "not quite there" and that "When he's ready to go, he'll go".

This doesn't provide a whole lot of clarity for Rose's owners as it is almost impossible to tell when he will actually come back. "

Uh-oh..

Got a source/link on that high ankle sprain, Doctor?

LeBron and Durant have sprained their ankles to. Along with every other human being who has played basketball. WE ARE ALL FRAGILE.

I'm okay with you not liking Rose. I don't like Kirk and I HATED Boozer. Just don't really agree with most of your logic behind it.

1 and done is a joke. "Free Education" is a joke. By free, do you mean the NCAA and school's are profiting millions off kids by forcing them to do something that they don't want or need for their athletic careers? If a guy is meant to play basketball his education level doesn't have to be the most important thing to him. Do you crush engineers for doing poorly in gym class? No, because it has no relevance to their career. Rose couldn't have played his sophomore year regardless because Calipari let Reggie Rose travel with the team for free and the NCAA found out.

Also, he didn't cheat at Memphis. Simeon High had someone take his ACTs for him and Memphis knew. A 17 year old didn't orchestrate an elaborate grade changing and test taking scheme, it was his coaches and his school. Memphis had their own "investigation" that cleared Rose to play. The system wanted to milk the kid for whatever they could and they did what they could to get around the rules. They got caught this time. It's not an uncommon thing.

Do you have a link to Rose saying he'd come back if he thought they had a shot against Miami? I don't recall him saying that. Maybe I'm wrong though.

I'm assuming your moral outrage applies to MJ, right? Dude has a gambling problem, is a spiteful petty dick to just about everyone hes ever met, and has literally punched people for not living up to his standards.

He did cheat at Memphis. He knew he was ineligible (Memphis did too because ETS notified them both). He knew he failed the ACT three times, but he chose to play against NCAA rules. I don't doubt that he actually cheated in his classes. Someone who can't pass the ACT probably isn't doing the work to pass college classes. Just look at the North Carolina Tar Heels.

Semantics.

The NCAA Clearinghouse ok'd Rose's scores and they ok'd Memphis' BS investigation. They should have done their due diligence. Someone from the ACTs (or SATs, I don't really know the difference) tipped off the NCAA two years later.

I'm sure Rose is the only guy to not follow your honor code system while not being paid under the employ of the NCAA.

The guy in your picture used a corked bat. I don't recall him turning himself in and not playing....
