Derrick Rose needs to be included as an athletic asshole. In his last 4 years as a pro, he's only played in 88 games due to injuries. Mind you, a regular season for a pro basketball player is 82 games. Chicago brought him in to make them a contender. After taking an elbow to the face that broke his face earlier this week, he stated to the media that he's looking towards his free agency career: "This whole summer I had tunnel vision," he said. "My mindset was just making sure that I was working out every day and spending as much time as possible with my son and focusing on them two things.
"Making sure that my family is financially stable -- as far as, you see all the money that they're passing out in this league, [I'm] just telling the truth, just knowing that my day will be coming up soon. It's not for me, it's for [son] P.J. and his future. so that's what I'm thinking about right now."
This man is worth roughly 400 million dollars right now. I think his family will be okay. He's reaped millions of dollars off the Bulls and for 3⁄4 of his time there he's been riding the pine, and intends to ride the pine straight out of town into free agency. If I were an NBA GM, I wouldn't sign him based solely on his injury record, his lack of class and loyalty would push me over the top. What an asshole.
