Derrick Doesn't Dance


.
After Team U.S.Aaculously prevailed over Nenad Krstic and Team Serbia in a 129-92 at the FIBA World Cup final tonight, they took the platform to celebrate.

They did so by performing the Schmoney Dance.

Well not all of Team U.S.A. was "getting money till they fall out". 

As we clearly can see, Derrick Rose, third from the far right, don't play dat. 
In an interview a few years ago, Rose stated that he can shuck and jive 'but there is a time and a place.'

So when is that time and place to dance? 
 It's definitely not during an All Star Game introduction.   It's definitely not when there is a stoppage of game.

In fact Derrick Rose hates dancing so much he'll go far as to humiliate people who do it for a living on the basketball court. Regardless of gender.

Look at him while he stares in awe (disdain?) at the New Zealand team performing the Hakka dance.

But why does Rose hate it so much? Is it because he's the greatest dancer of all time as evidenced by this little gem of a video?

Alright, that may or not be the 2011 Most Valuable Player but Derrick, why so serious? Let lose a little. You won the FIBA World Cup. 

You know who would be lettin' their back bone slide if he was not cut from Team USA
This man.
Actually I'm pretty sure John Wall dances like that after a morning poo

But I digress, if I am to infer what Derrick Rose is saying. The best time and place for Derrick Rose to bust a move is when he hoists the Larry O'Brien trophy over his head. The time will be ripe then for him, Pau Gasol and Joakim Noah to whip their hair back and forth. And until that time, Derrick will not dance. 
When he does though, it will be worth the wait.
Sorry that's not Derrick Rose but it will be just as great.
