I been sayin this all year

Rose is just another Allen Iverson.....not that it's a bad thing but he's never going to win a title without a legit star around him  (Not you Carlos Boozer)

Rose has a lot more character IMO, and more ups.  He missed Alot of Lay ups last night though; I think hes a great player but he shoots a low percentage due to high degree of difficulty on his shots; too often it's him against tall trees down low and he just Isnt big enough to finish consistently

^nigga just has no great jumper, that's why he's forced to do that type of shit

anyways, bulls got viagra for bullets, act like they are anxious to bust... but they ain't gangsta enough. miami in 6.

agreed


AI was a fucking monster.....imagine how much better he would've been if he took the regular season seriously and actually practiced with team mates haha

He produced more with a less arsonal of moves than Rose has. Animal.

Rose plays at a time when the East has legit powerhouses, unlike 2000

and what do you call the 2000 and 2001 Nets teams?  those squads would get waxed by this years Celtics or Heat

AI couldn't even make it in Turkey and the 2001 Sixers would stand no chance against the Heat or Celtics.

& he couldn't handle the Lakers then either in '01; true powerhouse. I don't see the point. Iverson had Aaron McKie & Eric Snow. Could be worse than LeBron in Cleveland.

No team in the history of the NBA could have easily handled the 01 Lakers when they meant business. Shaq was in videogame mode back then.

As for Iverson, he also had Carmelo Anthony and Marcus Camby and didn't do shit when he was in Denver, while actually making the Pistons and Grizzlies worse.

The 2001 Sixers also had Dikembe Mutombo who was a real ass nigga back then, much better than McKie or Snow.

^On defense.

As for Denver, not only was A.I. past prime, but his style of play is "give me the ball & I'll do things with them". He didn't have that with Melo on the floor with him. Similar to Rose, in my opinion. Rose just has more pieces around him & even his team as a whole isn't all that great.

Also, Rose is 10-12 years younger than the A.I. we're talking about in Turkey or anything post 76er.

AI was a beast in his heyday. He could get that Philly team to win off sheer willpower. He wanted it more than his opponents and his teammates most of the time. That was a gift and later a curse in his career but you could not help but root for the guy. Rose's demeanor is more laid back but if he ever developed a controlled rage, watch out.

[OG Hack Wilson]

Rose ain't developing no rage
