Rose before injuries was one hell of a dunker and if i might add much better crossover than Westbrook's

Westbrook doesn't even need a crossover lol. His god given athletic ability and size for the PG position is unmatched in today's game. More often than not he just bull dozes his way or blows by everyone. After a made basket, he creates his own semi fast break and in a blink of an eye he is finishing at the other end lol.

D Rose was too much of a beast and fun to watch before the injuries. Now he has slowed his game down, and it looks like when he wants to blow by someone he hesitates and just does a lot of hesi' dribbles before he initiates his signature jump hook shot.

He is still just as acrobatic as before, but the last few games I watched he didn't finish the layup like he didn't have enough hangtime. I'm sure he can get back to at least those crazy acrobatic layups, but as far as dunking like he used to we won't see that until he is mentally more confident.

I think the dunking argument is more a tendency thing than ability and Rose before the surgeries had bunnies . Anybody can dunk a lot like I said its tendencies. So Ra is totally wrong about Rose not being the dunker Russ or Wall is in terms of ability pre injuries

Roster ratings changes from week to week based on a couple of games is ridiculous to me. Particularly because it sets the game up to play unrealistically from week to week. If I start a MyGM mode right now. You're telling me that Draymond will be better than Tim Duncan, Blake Griffin, Drummond, Aldridge, Pau, etc for the entire duration of my franchise experience? It just doesn't make sense.

Find a base rating for a player that encompasses his attributes and skill set based on months of play and then adjust from there occasionally. This week to week stuff is basically a way to represent hot and cold streaks. A better solution must be found.

Have to agree to disagree. Rose having hops is not the same as him dunking like Westbrook. Westbrook is a f*cking animal with his dunks...in traffic.

What ?

Dunking is ability and style , Rose is more poetic and Russ is more Raw aggressive . Rose best Russ in every athletic test at the combine , like it's shown in the video Rose was very capable of dunking on people but he with his style he rarely did it. Rose body control is better than Russ leading to Rose avoiding contact . Russ not as much as rose so he tries to go thru people , it's just his style . Not a slight


Don't confuse vertical with style


Brandon Roy has a 40 inch vertical but never really used it . Style of play

Prob repeating myself but just because a player doesn't show very often they can bust thru a player dunking doesn't mean they can't . Rose shown shown it plenty of times in his career just chooses not too . Style of Dunker

Yes, Westbrook slams with authority and his demeanor when going to the rim is much harsher and volatile than DRose. But to say that Drose wasn't on par with his dunking and tendency to dunk like Wall and Westbrook before injuries is straight up disrespectful and delusional lol.

No one is going to argue that the present DRose can compete with those 2 guys athletically right now, but if he can get his confidence back and remove those mental blocks that every athlete has going through major and multiple injuries, I believe he can be close to what he once was.
