    I'm not comparing them Apples to apples. Of course we can't compare Kobe to Rose, that's not fair.

    But people are already saying that Rose is at CP3/DWill level.
    Compare him to CP3 and D-Will as rookies. CP3 was pretty good as a rookie, Deron was nothing special IIRC. Rose will get better, and he will learn the league, what you can and can't get away with when it comes to the refs, tendencies of other players, etc.

    They're better than Kansas was. So I'd say it counts a good deal. Either you wipe the slate clean and not judge him based of what he did in ing college, or you throw it in there and see that he just took over a game against a team that would curbstomp Kansas by 50 points.
    I'm biased against Rose because of that game.

    I've been waiting for him to really shine with a quality win, it just hasn't happened yet.

    If he can get a win in Denver on Sunday, Utah or Philly coming up, I'll give him his props. They all have decent guards.

    That's what I'm saying, people aren't comparing him to CP3 and DWill as rookies, they're comparing them to DWill and CP3 RIGHT NOW. I think he's way behind right now.

    Rose is much better than Kobe was at 19. Give this kid time. I have no doubt he will be the best PG by far in 3 years!!!

    The you talking about doesnt even make since. Its 10 games into the season and hes proved hes the best player on their team by far, and is hands down the 4th best PG in the league behind Parker, Deron and Paul... in that order.
    Is he best on the Bulls? Yes
    Can he score 20 points and lead the team in Assists? Yes
    Has he shown he's a guy that can lead his team to winning ways? No

    He gets Chauncey Billups and Andre Miller soon, I'll wait until after those 2 contests before I trashtalk him some more or praise him.

    The Bulls are 6-7 with a battered Kirk Hinrich and mediocre players with the exception of few.

    New Orlean Hornets are 6-5 with 2 allstars

    Not much difference in the standings there.

    Interpret this please.

    Behind those guys as rookies? I don't think so, Deron Williams was nothing to write home about as a rookie. CP3 averaged 16 and 8 assists, Rose is averaging 18 and 5 dimes.

    Allanon, I generally respect your basketball takes, but you might want to walk back from the plank you're on in this thread.

    Hahah, I'll take your advice guys.

    I'll shut up for now and let this ride for a bit longer.

    Derrick Rose is the greatest point guard.

    Bulls are a win away from the 6th seed, CP3 with an allstar on his team should be higher than 6-5 IMO.

    Not really. The Hornets are a scrub team that played above their level last year. They came out of nowhere, and now they are going back to nowhere...
    Sonics 05 to 06?

    Unfortunately, that was against the Warriors who just traded off Al Harrington today.

    That's like beating up on the Thundah.

    I just looked at the boxscore and the Warriors guard was C Watson. Who the is C Watson?

    Warriors...come out to plaaaayayay.
    It seems right there, in bold, you've changed your original argument. I may be wrong, but that's what it looks like.

    Oh we know he can score and assist I said it too. Like he had great numbers in the Lakers and still lost by quite a bit.

    But so far he can't lead his team to a win...a real win. Not the Warriors, Thunda, TWolves of the world.

    I mean c'mon he played against some guy named "C Watson". I could probably drop 10-15 points against C Watson.

    At least I haven't seen him LEAD his team to a quality win yet. When he does, then I'll start talking about the greatness of Derrick Rose.
    There as well.

    He's ing 20 years old Allanon in his rookie season. Give me a break.
    The Bulls suck. That's not Rose's fault. The Lakers missed the playoffs in the first post-Shaq year because it was Kobe and partial-birth abortion for his supporting cast. Quit hating.
    Yup, and if we're going to change the argument from the original, then something else must be taken into account. The quality of his roster, and other rosters. Somewhere in there a area of reasonable thought must be agreed upon.

    Nah, that's just 1 series. Kobe led well throughout the Playoffs and the regular season. I'm not asking Rose to win the Championship this year, just have a respectable team.



    Kobe could lead Rose's Bulls team to a top4 seed in the East.

    I don't hate on Rose, I was pissed at his lack of urgency in that Memphis/Kansas game. He still hasn't gotten over that hump yet.

    He's a good player but not near CP3/DWill yet.
    Kobe is a vet.

    Did you bet money on this game or something?


    You're judging Rose based off one game in college. That's just ing stupid.
    Is he best on the Bulls? Yes
    Can he score 20 points and lead the team in Assists? Yes
    Has he shown he's a guy that can lead his team to winning ways? No

    He gets Chauncey Billups and Andre Miller soon, I'll wait until after those 2 contests before I trashtalk him some more or praise him.
    I thought we were talking about leading his team to a victory, then quality wins as a second totally different argument.

    Behind those guys as rookies? I don't think so, Deron Williams was nothing to write home about as a rookie. CP3 averaged 16 and 8 assists, Rose is averaging 18 and 5 dimes.
    We can't forget this little gem here either.

    Also....

    G.S just beat Portland, without Harrington. If i'm not mistaken, Port just beat Chi very badly. So G.S is well capable of beating Chi, but Chi won. It Looks like Rose stepped up after a chin check experience, can't deny that.

    Heres the highlights of the game http://www.nba.com/video/games/warri...nba/index.html

    Look at 1:57 as Derrick Rose tells GSW Fans to shut up.
