"One of the most explosive players I've ever played" - LeBron James shares how good Derrick Rose was in his prime
Rose was the Chicago Bulls' No.1 overall pick in the 2007 NBA Draft, and right from the get-go, he was special. After winning Rookie of the Year honors in 2008, Rose was named to the All-Star team in his second year and was the MVP of the league in Year 3.
Interestingly, fans and media have already seen flashes of vintage LeBron this year. One of the clearest examples was his 29-point performance against the Philadelphia 76ers, where he shot over 70 percent from the field and scored 12 points in the fourth quarter alone.
Carmelo Anthony believes that if LeBron James wanted to, he could average 30 points per game, but he's fitting into a new role.
In his 23rd season, LeBron James is apparently still collecting firsts. After sinking a clutch fadeaway to seal a win against the Philadelphia 76ers, he decided one iconic celebration wasn’t enough.
