Derrick Rose...

22 years old. Still plenty of years to improve. If the Bulls get a quality SG and hold onto the pieces they have already they'll be contending for awhile. Father time is closing in on the Celtics. They won't be around forever.

If the Celtics ring this year, I can deal with it if they aren't competing for the next few after.

For. 's. sake. Rose is good, but most Spurs fans are acting as if anyone able to do that to our apparent "World-beater defense" must be the ing basketball messiah...

Derrick Rose might become what Stephon Marbury should have.

Now THAT is a great post.
But I think rose is an even better athlete but that is a good comparison. Rose right now is already better than Star was at his peak and Starbury was pretty good.

LOL fair point.
As for the recent history comment by TD21 Paul sucked last yeat so if recent history matters than Paul is not the in the conversation. This year he seems like maybe 80% of what he was ...

If you go back to Rose's rookie year then maybe I'll buy that Paul was better than he and Dwill ...
