Post by Robceltsfan »

Is he going to make the Hall of Fame?

He's going to put the "MVP = HOF" correlation to the test.

I would personally not vote him in.

I don't think he deserves it either but based on the previous HOF entries it feels like a safe choice that he will.

The BEST Bulls player in the past 26 years could not measure up to LeGOAT's pinky toe.

Sad.

I guess because of the MVP but I dunno. He didn’t have a HOF career IMO.

Through their first 4 years (before the injury) Rose was actually more accomplished than LeFraud... each with 3 All Star selections, each with a ROY, Rose with 1 MVP to LeFraud's 0.

CLEARLY Rose was on-pace to become the face of the NBA before the injury.

So overrated. And despite TDK's Chicago bias, he was never worth one fine hair on LeBron's ass.

Lebron did shit on Rose’s head in the POs though.

Are we really pretending Rose was the best player in 2011?

Dude was 9th in PER, played on a team that was +7/100 possessions with him off the court (see below), and shot 35 percent in the most critical playoff series, and like 25 percent when guarded by Lebron.

He was probably somewhere in the 5-10th range that year. He got MVP strictly from being the best player on a stacked team that won a lot of games.

Jordanesque hops, Jordanesque quickness, Jordanesque footwork, Jordanesque athleticism, Jordanesque finishing ability... youngest MVP ever.

LeFraud could never:

Crazy how much cognitive bias rules TDK, no matter what the subject. He's actually probably worse than Artie. Just nuts.

That’s a good point, actually. He was very autistic or had some kind of social awkwardness going on.

Rose was clearly AND easily the most "valuable" player in 2011... only a bush-league level hoops fan would disagree.

I stated nothing but facts ITT, meatball... besides, you're a Canadian Cuck so you know nothing about hoops. Stick to discussing Hockey, Ice Fishing and Moose Hunting.
