Will Derrick Rose, 2011 NBA MVP and starting point guard for the New York Knicks, ever win a ring? According to Ron Harper, a five-time NBA champion who was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers with the 8th pick in the 1986 NBA Draft, no.
When asked what team Rose would have to go to in order to win an NBA championship, “Hollywood” Harper responded with “he’s not getting one”.
Really?
I mean with the New York Knicks, it’s unlikely to happen. That’s in part due to the Knicks’ own mediocrity as an organization and in part due to LeBron James’ stranglehold on the Eastern Conference.
