D-Rose does not care

[Jacob1983]

Says it's not his job to convince anyone including Carmelo to play for the Bulls. Homie don't give a shit. He is just there collecting a paycheck. I like it.

[Thread]

I don't blame him. Debasing one self during these free agent extravaganzas is vulgar and plays directly into my indictment of (symbolism over substance) that has inundated sports in America, in particular the NBA.

[TDMVPDPOY]

lol his fake tears

why doesnt he go get a tear drop tattoo...fkn gangbanger

[Reck]

It's not that he doesn't care. Its that he cant.

His knees are busted so he knows he's done. Guy is going to play out his contract and go into obscurity as a millionaire and in a few years someone's going to find him all shot up at some club.

[Infinite_limit]

Rose has held this stance since the James sweepstakes 4 years ago. It would be hypocritical and reek of desperation for him to all of a sudden change his stance. Isn't Love available via trade anyway?

[~O~]

Well he's not Carmelo's guardian and master. Carmelo is an adult that makes his own final decisions? Rose is abiding by a generalized opinion. Anthony possesses the terminal preference; a preference that is singular.

This new NBA in which you convince other players to play on your team through desperate begging has a laughable appeal. The entire instance of these events have been absorbed and vomited in articles through out the www for casual fans to recycle and reverberate these instances. Just read and interpret it as music samples.

Chicago's Derrick Rose is still deciding whether he'll play for USA Basketball this summer.

In 20 years, what will be more surprising: Rose's MVP in 2011 or Kawhi's fMVP in 2014?

[Pelicans78]

If I was smoking as much weed as D-Rose does, I wouldn't care about anything either.

DROse. Even though I felt he was deserving ... in an era that included James in his prime for him to win MVP is the bigger upset. KL may prove to be a poor man's James Worthy or rich man's Horry. We shall see which.

What's hypocritical is refusing to help attract free agents but then sending out his brother to complain to the media about the roster every year, tbh....

[TDMVPDPOY]

his a gangbanger they dont care

[Darius McCrary]

Drose is the original LDN, he's a MVP and don't gaf

[JoeTait75]

He's right. It isn't his job to "recruit" free agents/acquire talent. That's the front office's job.

[baseline bum]

He's right. It isn't his job to "recruit" free agents/acquire talent. That's the front office's job.

But it was his job to play when healthy and not sit out the season and he didn't do that either.

[Gummi Clutch]

The rare times I agree with you Cul. It's degenerate behavior.

[InRareForm]

You need high SAT scores in order to have capability to want to recruit someone on your team for a championship

its not his job, alpha rose shitting on haters per par.

Rose was better than Westbrook is now tbh.

Rose now possibly can't play at that level anymore though.

[Leetonidas]

I really don't think he was. He was all hype, imo he was maybe on par with Westbrook but he was never better than him if we're going by last season's Westbrook. Rose's team has managed to stay at a decent seed in the East and continually make the playoffs without him. Some MVP right? :lol

And they've done terrible in playoffs without him. With him they were in the ECF.

That's saying much :lol

[Leetonidas]

And generally if you look at history the MVP is given to players where if you took them off those teams, their teams might not make the playoffs at all. 2002/2003 Spurs were garbage without Tim, 2004 Wolves don't sniff the playoffs without Garnett, 2005 Suns were awful whenever Nash sat out, and we all saw what happened to the Cavs when LeBron left. When you win the MVP but then miss over a year yet your team still makes the playoffs and has a good regular season record, that Most Valuable title may be undeserved, imo


Besides Rose is done. Like I said, he's a poor man's Westbrook with Oden knees. He's finished being a top tier player. Luckily for him he has one of the best coaches in the league and the DPOY to mask his overratedness

Rose + Boozer
Westbrook + Durant

They are different players as Westbrook is great defensively but ultimately you are comparing an Alpha Male MVP to a sidekick

[Leetonidas]

lol mentioning Boozer when players like Noah and Deng (at the time) were far superior :lol

And don't give me that shit, these playoffs showed Durbeta was the true sidekick. Westbrook played like a man and was alpha as hell while Durbeta choked and failed. Could you imagine if Lebron turned the ball over on the last offensive possession of his team's season? It's amazing what a pass this acne faced pussy gets and how critics attack Westbrook for their failures when clearly Durant does not have the alpha gene in him. Put 2014 Westbrook on the Bulls from 2010-now and they would be in the ECF every season imo and I don't think Westbrook would get completely nullified by LeBron either like Rose.

Like I said, Rose was an overrated gangbanger who got gifted an MVP because the media was tired of giving it to Lebron and because he played in Chicago and was the most relevant player there since Mike, people suck him off and proclaim him to be some kind of amazing player when in reality he's Westbrook with shot knees and worse defense. A glorified Allen Iverson tbh

Technically Rose did that

Last Playoff Lose: ECF to Heat
Last Playoff Game: 23 Pts - 9 TRB - 9 Asists win over Sixers

Rose won the MVP because he was the most exciting player in the League while leading the Bulls to a 21 wins improvement. His running mate was Keith Bogans

[Leetonidas]

He did it once and can't stay on the court tbh without Westbrook the Thunder got spanked last season and he was the difference between that and the WCF in a much tougher west. My point is that Westbrook would have accomplished the same in Chicago if not more in the same time period which brings me back to my original statement that at this point Rose is a poor man's Westbrook with Oden knees

Didn't the Thunder make the 2nd Round in the West without Westbrook?

[Leetonidas]

And? :lol With the supposed 2nd best player in the league they should beat a shitty 45 win Rocket team, and they got their shit pushed in by a Grizzlies team that got swept in the WCF.

[Jacob1983]

What was Rose's reaction to the Bulls getting Gasol? Did he even pretend that he gave a fuck?

[DMC]

Rose + Boozer

We're not talking about Durant though.

The Grizz are the sleeper team. That franchise fucked up by firing Hollins. That team just needs one good shooting guard and a backup center to be right there.

Gasol said Tuesday that, after speaking with Bulls players Derrick Rose (http://espn.go.com/nba/player/_/id/3456/derrick-rose) and Joakim Noah (http://espn.go.com/nba/player/_/id/3224/joakim-noah), "instinct told me to pick Chicago."

D. Rose > Westbrook

If D Rose was playing in place of WB in 2012, OKC wins the chip.
