When he Dunked on Joel Anthony

more of a moment - the 2011 christmas game vs the Lakers Edit: 1:52

The one-handed alleyoop at Atlanta (2009-10 szn). Underrated slam.

When he dunked on dragic 😮‍💨

The 50pt.outburst always had me in tears.. Drose still no. 1 no matter what team he plays for.. Thanks in advance Maxamillion711

Unfortunate sounds real horrible to say about him... but he was the best point guard in his prime nobody could stop him not even kobe!! Who remember that left hand lay up on D Wade and LeBron James💯💪🏿🥶🐐

He never hit his prime? I don’t know why people keep saying in his prime!

Prime Kyrie better

@@errickwisePrime refers to a time when a person was at their greatest. He had his prime, what he did not hit was his full potential.

​@@matthewgabbana5021😂 troll babble

💯. People try to compare him to Ja or Russ but Rose is much more fluent and in control, also just a smart and better player all around

Prime Kyrie is better than MVP Rose

@@matthewgabbana5021 Maybe more skilled, no shot he’s better though

@@matthewgabbana5021prime kyrie could never lead his team to the 1 seed with over 60 wins and only lose to the super team heat at just 22 years old

Facts he brought that hood rugged dog streetball vibe. His energy was strong you could feel him when he played

Both thier careers took a flip, back when drose was doing his thing in the early 2010s, curry was battling ankle issues and was looking like a what if case? than suddenly curry got back on track and started to shine, drose got hurt and became the what if case. In a alternate universe, we get drose vs curry at least twice in the finals instead of that nonsense 4 straight dubs vs cavs from 2015 to 2018.

@@NewEarthSon Back when everyone was saying he should be traded so that Ellis could have a reliable star teammate. There was merit to it, but with hindsight we now know that would have prevented 4 championships.

@@joebenson528 I'm one of the one's that was on Curry Ship whether it reached its destination which it eventually ended up doing even (surpassing my expectations)or sank with injury. The issue with D Rose he had stupid basketball people in corner, no one told him to "control" the way he plays as far as landing and putting pressure on his body and to add more skills like passing, shooting to his game, to further open up his game and make his team better. Also taking certain procedures of taking care of his body would have helped him as well. Also the obvious that everyone knows already with thibs making his team player harder than they need to and keeping Rose at the end of a game already decided. If Im D Rose I would not like that guy.lol I do not get why he kept on playing for his teams. Jimmy Buckets made it to the finals twice by being a lead man when he really is a secondary guy. A developing Drose who is a real number 1 in his full prime with what Jimmy became is getting the bulls at least one title. I say from the 2011 to 2023 with everything staying the same with only D Rose being healthy and reaching his prime, I say he wins at least the 2019 title that kawhi won. But what does that even mean? With a healthy D rose in his prime, he changes the league and since the 2010s was the superteam era, he might be able to get some guys to come play with him(KD? PG? Kawhi? etc) and with this, are the the dubs even looked at the same? I one ABSOLUTE FACT. Lebron would not make it to 8 straight finals if D rose is healthy, develops his game, reaches his prime which we never saw, the organization gets players that fit his game and produces wins/titles and the organization tell thibs to cool down on exhauting his team. 2011 bulls lost to the heat, in 2012 I believe they still lose to heat. I belive they also lose in 2013. 2014,2015, in 2 of the 3 yearsof 2017, 2018 and 2019 the bulls make it out. So thats 4 out of the 8 straight finals appearances lebron had that would not exist.

I think D Rose could’ve been in the position LEBRON is in right now. He was that good and that different. He was on top of the world, and he wasn’t even in his prime. I fully believe if he had taken better care of his body we’d be talking about him with LeBron and Curry.

Very very fast first step, reminiscent of MJ in the 80s. The explosiveness is just surreal.

there isn’t a single year where rose and the bulls would’ve beat lebron. He was good, but he’s not as good as everyone makes him out to be

@@jacksonbecker7121 you clearly didn't watch NBA back then. You do know that hte bulls were #1 seed in the east in 2011? right? D rose won MVP because of dominate he was. Roster included MVP Rose, Young Jimmy butler, Noah, boozer, 3 point shooer Korver, luol deng (who could play D on Lebron), and even taj gibson off the bench. Stop talking out ur rear end and looking at box scores.... go actually watch the sport, kiddo.

@@mart1n10601lebron and company still beat drose when he won the MVP that year. So, what are you trying to get at?

@@mart1n10601 LeBron and the big 3 at their worst beat the 2011 Bulls in 5 games…and I’m a diehard D-Rose fan. Bulls might’ve gotten to the finals 1-2 times during that era, but LeBron from 2012-2018 was a different beast. Unless Bulls made more moves, they wouldn’t get past him.

@@steve-o_8840 Wow lebron on a stacked team beat a 23 year old Derrick Rose? Are you not smart enough to connect the dots? Lebron at age 23 was HALF the player he was at his peak 30 years of age. If rose never got injured he would onlt get better and perhaps even build his own super team in Chicago against the heat. Man, these kids are clueless. Not only do you have to teach hisotry, but u have to literally connect the most basic dots for them.

Exactly what i thought

Perfect description of prime Rose🌹

Man D Rose imho was projected to be on par if not better than MJ. Mfer wasn’t close to his prime winning MVP and killing the Heat 3 all alone!! Bro was special and everything he did seemed effortless asf but unfortunately his body couldn’t keep up with him. I’m a Nets fan but damn he was my favorite player during this time!!

Yes indeed!🙏💯

LeBron has better highlights in one season than this

LeBron highlights are just a big man running the floor getting wide open dunks. Ok, he’s a good passer too when he wants to be. But he has never had the handles, lateral game and finishing touch that prime Rose had, especially to create on his own.

I started watching the NBA during this time. Seeing a prime Derrick Rose and LeBron James is what got me into watching the NBA. I mean it when I say it, no one in the NBA today was as good as a prime Derrick Rose or LeBron James. Both were captivating to watch in their own right. Rose was a one-man army and watching the Heat was watching LeBron and Wade dominate the fastbreak. LeBron was legitimately the fastest in the league at 6’8 240 pounds. He had a 40+ inch vertical and could out-muscle anyone in the paint. Any night watching the Heat was counting how many dunks LeBron would get in the game. NBA 2k14 made a custom badge for LeBron called “LeBron Coast to Coast,” that’s just how crazy he was on the fastbreak. Derrick Rose and LeBron were the fastest in the league at the time. Rose was the perfect blend of finesse and explosion. He was as explosive as Russell Westbrook, had the handles/layups of Kyrie, and had the killer mentality of Kobe. Rose was just a winner, and it’s one of the NBA’s biggest tragedies we didn’t get to see this man play. Even though I’m a Knicks fan, he’s my favorite player of all-time.

Real Talk! 🥶

I disagree to a certain extent.

........why​@@Callmeblackgaming

He won't win a ring as he's had too many injuries and isn't in his prime anymore. He's also been stuck with mediocre team's since he left the Bulls in 2016

He was so shifty and always creating angles with his misdirection
