Source Derrick Rose has a world of talent. He's an elite point guard destined to win, his overall game is coming to new heights. Where does Derrick Rose deceive fans with his ability to adjust his body and get into the lane? Derrick Rose drives into the lane, maneuvers his body in a way that looks amazing and flips up shots most of the time. While that's usually highlight worthy and fine and dandy, Derrick Rose forces some of these shots. Shouldn't Derrick Rose force shots? Sure, occasionally, Derrick Rose is the guy who should be shooting for Chicago. Every star has a time in the game when they should be leading the attack. The problem is Derrick Rose is beginning to settle for these shots. While most fans view these shots as aggressive attempts to score, they're clearly a mix of that and Derrick Rose thinking he must get a shot up. Derrick Rose has a great awareness of when his team needs him to score. He sees his team is struggling, giving up defensive su...

  • Derrick Rose's drives are a mixture of both but I personally would prefer that he drives less if he has to lead his team through a whole season and the playoffs. What he does is too high risk and as such he could get injured on any play and cost his team in the long run. What he needs is a bonafide pure scorer who takes that pressure off of him to attempt the impossible most times in order to keep his team afloat. The Bulls are a great team but theyre a Derrick Rose injury away from being average.

Rose, Bulls Dominate Wizards

“We fought hard till the end,” said Nick Young after the Wizards loss to the Chicago Bulls.

Tonight in Phila-delphia, the Sixers buried the visiting Bulls, 98-82. It really wasn't as close as that; the team led by 20 at the end of the third quarter and kept Derrick Rose and the Bulls starters on the bench in the fourth. And the only real moment of disappointment was that they came close to the free Big Mac, but didn't take a final shot. So, what are the reasons...

Knicks’ loss to Bulls is a great sign for New York

Via Pro Sports Blogging  |  February 02, 2012
No coach will ever claim a moral victory. No player will ever claim a moral victory. Rarely will a fan claim a moral victory for their favorite team. I will not claim a moral victory for any of my favorite teams, no matter what the situation may be. The Knicks’ loss to the Bulls tonight, however, is a good sign. A very good sign. Amar’e Stoudemire led all scorers in the 105-102...
