Rose has actually hit a handful of buzzer beaters over his career, but many are most fond of this specific example (perhaps having to do with defeating LeBron James?).

Besides proving that the guy is blessed, it also shows that deep down inside, there is a chance that the old Rose will re-emerge. After all, this took place only last year….
Although it may feel as though Rose has not played well period since his second injury, this is actually not really the case. Last season, he competed in 51 games and ended up averaging 17.7 points, 4.9 assists and 3.2 rebounds per game.
There is no question that the guard has a lot of raw talent left in him. The problem becomes whether or not he cares enough to let it out, and if Chicago is still the right place for him to do so.

Fans need to be at peace with the fact that while Rose may never be the same player again, that does not mean that he can no longer be someone worth counting on. However, at the end of the day, that is for him to decide and act upon.
Bloom again, Rose.
