Via NY Post:
When I left the Knicks that day in January 2017, that’s what it was about. I just needed to go home.
I went to the crib with my mom. Everybody came over to the house to talk. That’s the first time, one of the few times, where we sat down as a whole family and had a serious discussion like that.
I had decided I was done playing. I saw the same thing that was happening with the Bulls was going on with New York. I could tell that the season wasn’t going to be the season everyone thought, that I thought. I didn’t know if I wanted to hoop anymore. Especially when it started to feel like a business. Of course, you know it’s a business. They always say that. But you know it’s also hoopin’. But it had started to feel like all business, no joy. That’s when I wanted out. I wasn’t having fun.
Rose isn’t the first player to have their love of the game sucked out of them by the Knicks. He probably won’t be the last.
Zion dodged a bullet.
