Is there any doubt? Here are his numbers the last 3 games:

8 points on 4-13 shooting in 34 minutes vs DET
6 points on 2-8 shooting in 32 minutes vs ORL
6 points on 2-8 shooting in 24 minutes vs Charlotte

And yet Lebron still has no title while Rose is "healthy". Weird. Is he the LBJ kryptonite on a macro scale?

I mean, he has never been a great shooter.

So, I won't judge him until we get 20-30 games in, or he returns to the land of broken toys...whichever comes first.

What I will say is this: Anyone who gives this guy a contract that is not incentive laden, based on health and games played, is on crack.

Well Rose is only healthy once in a blue moon so I think you can give LeBron a pass this time.

almost reminds me of Brandon Roy in terms of a body just giving out on an athlete except I liked Brandon Roy much more.

Lebron knocks the Bulls out of the playoffs every year, with Rose or not. Rose just cant handle the pressure.

Why is any one bringing Lebron into this conversation which is about Rose? Lebron has had a career with good health until now and at least he made it to the finals and has two championships. The only thing Rose has is his hand to wank himself with

You are right. Yet the fact remains, LBJ has no rings when Rose is healthy. Not saying it is because of Rose directly. That is why I say he is Bron's macro krytonite.

That is kinda angry. I was just making an observation.

Irrelevant stat. Lebron got past Rose and the Bulls in 2011 when Lebron was with the Heat. You could say Lebron is 0-1 against Dirk in the Finals, 1-2 against Duncan. But bringing up Lebron has never won when Rose is healthy is an aberration. The way Rose's career is going, nobody will be able to win a ring when Rose is healthy...because he's never healthy.

I think you are missing the point...

To bad to see Rose be so injury prone, he's such a great talent.

We all are missing your point
Let me try again.

Whenever Rose has ened the season WITHOUT a season ending injury, LBJ has ended the season WITHOUT a title. When LBJ won his 2 championships, Rose WAS NOT on the floor (read: season ending injury) when the Bulls season eneded.

Not saying LBJ did not win BECAUSE of Rose. Just that there is a correlation.

Clear?

What's the point of bringing that up? That's the most retarded shit I've ever read on this board. @WiggyRuss, congratulations, you're off the hook.
