Rose was selected 1st in the NBA Draft by the Chicago Bulls, who had only a 1.7% chance of getting the top pick in the Draft Lottery.
In his first season (2008-09), he won the Rookie of the Year award, becoming the 3rd Bulls player to ever do so.
In his second season, he scored 20.8 PPG and made the All-Star team that year. The Bulls finished with a 41-41 record for the second straight year and made the playoffs again.
In his third season, Rose had a phenomenal season, scoring 25 PPG, making the All-Star team again, and led his team to a 62-20 record, best in the NBA. He won the League's MVP award, becoming the youngest NBA player ever to win the award.
In the playoffs, Rose got farther than the first round for the first time in his career, defeating the Pacers and Hawks (he scored a career-high 44 points in a game against Atlanta). In the Eastern Conference Finals, the Bulls eventually lost to the Miami Heat 4-1.
In his fourth season, Rose only played 39 games during an injury-filled season. He made the All-Star game for the third consecutive season.
During the Bulls' playoff opener, Rose tore his ACL and missed the rest of the playoffs, with an estimated recovery period of 8-12 months.
He is currently scheduled to make a quicker comeback to the team sometime after the 2013 All-Star break.

Get the Derrianna mug.#55, outstanding weakside linebacker for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Derrick Brooks is considered by SI as one of the 25 best LBs of all time. He is categorized by his blazing speed and athleticism, his leadership, his consistency, and vicious hits on the field. He's a player that isn't about the money and loves the game and the fans in Tampa(similar to a Brett Favre). He's been in Tampa for over 10 years now and is still the best, and his play has not declined with age. Hes been in many pro bowls, and was the mvp of the 2006 game. In the '02 super bowl season, he had scored 4 total defensive touchdowns off ints.
