The Knicks haven't made an appearance for a long time on media day for the new season, and a few days later, derrick Rose, who turned 33, finally showed up, and he also talked about what he did in this silent offseason.
Rose said: "In the two months after last season, I cut off all contact with the outside world. I want to spend this time with my family. I didn't have a cell phone for those two months, which allowed me to fully enjoy my time with my family. ”
In the case that many people can't do without their mobile phones for two hours, Ross didn't use his mobile phone for two months, cut off all social media, and Ross really made life bigger than everything.
Some people will ask, how did Rose renew his contract with the Knicks? Rose himself said that he left the agent to deal with the free agent market, as to why he returned to the Knicks so quickly, because they were the first to talk about it.
In the offseason, Rose returned to the Knicks for 3 years and 43 million. Asked about whether he would start, Rose said: "Walker will be the starter, and I'm not worried about playing time at all. ”
Don't care about the outside world, don't care about the contract, don't care about the team status and playing time, I have to say that the 33-year-old Rose has lived more and more "immortal". Behind this desirelessness and lack of demand, there is a reason.
This is probably the third time Rose has confirmed that his next home is the New York Knicks, the last time was in the middle of last season, the Pistons in order to satisfy Rose's desire to play the playoffs to trade him to the Knicks, amicably broke up.
The first process wasn't so rosy, and I distinctly remember Ross being at home in an interview for a documentary, during which Rose received a call from his agent who told him he had been traded to the Knicks by the Bulls.
I'm sure a lot of people know that scene, and the agent said, "That's it, accept it." Rose said with tears, "Good", and anyone who saw it would be sad for Rose at that time.
In that documentary, Rose said he sometimes gets frustrated, with only 1 person in the audience of 20,000 shouting, "You're back," "Hurry up and pass," "Blast him away," "Trade him away."
This gap is difficult to accept in any one person, once Rose was the proud son of Chicago, with the aura of the youngest MVP surrounded his head, although he lost to the Big Three that year, but it didn't matter, he was still young, everything was in time.
But is it really too late? In the first round of the playoffs in '12, Rose's anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in his knee were torn, and he missed a full season. It was a comeback, and after playing 10 games, it was reimbursed for another season.
When he came back again, he found that everything was different, he started to be booed by the fans at home, his speed was indeed much worse than before, and he was no longer the darling of Chicago fans.
But even so, he still loves this place in Chicago so deeply, the world repays me with pain, and I report the world with songs. So when he was abandoned by the bull, he would cry like a child, and in his world, Rose and the bull should not be separated.
Later Rose also drifted, and before the Cavaliers did not meet expectations, returned to the Timberwolves to return to the top. He used 50 points to prove that although he did not have thorns, he could bloom. Become a mentor in Motor City and return to the Knicks and reunite in Thibodeau.
Continuing to choose to stay in the Knicks may also mean that Rose's obsession with the championship has long since disappeared. He has stepped on the top of the mountain, has also fallen into the trough, experienced the cold and warm of life, Rose lived enough through, but also free enough.
