Yeah I don't like either team. I have hated the nets since Kidd, Kmart and Jefferson were on that team. Also, isn't Twin on the celtics. It would be cool to see Kidd, Kmart and Collins all on the floor at the same time.

He didn't even try to come back and play a real game even 10-15min, although he's been cleared by doctors and Thibs said he looks good.

I think the real reason he didn't come back is for 2 reasons....

1. He's scared to injure his knee again

2. He's having a hard time realizing he may have to change his game... still wants to tumble and sommersault down the lane then torque/catapult off the court into the air. Guys who are athletically gifted have a hard time playing this game when that part of their game is taken from them. Big up to BustBrick knowing how to mix them together fairly decent although he could tone it down a little more. If I were Rose's teammate, I'd be pretty disappointed in him probably wouldn't talk to him at all. Brooklyn probably takes this series fairly easy as the Bulls look like a deflated team and D-Will is playing like a Top 5 player right now.

Curry had the typical 1st time jitters. Pressed the issue to much. GS needs to adjust to Denver over loading to defend Curry.

Smackeddog made a great point regarding Rose. He said that the Bulls want the insurance money to pay for his contract this year and I believe he said it would cost them 6 mil if he played in the playoffs. Bulls have to respect and coddle rose. He is too big a talent to let walk and is not a coach killer.

Naaaahh not buying it. Because the Bulls stand a chance to make that if not more each playoff series they advance. He also made a statement like...."Only God knows when he'll play again"<-------What kind of statement is that? I mean I get he's relying on a higher power to get him through this tough time but to publicly make this statement shows more of an internal struggle with himself and the injury not anything financially motivated. And when it comes to coddling it's what his life has been, coddled by his Mom first and foremost along with the rest of the fam. That's why his brother opened his big mouth earlier in the season. Who is he to be speaking on what the Bulls should do roster wise when his brother hadn't played and stood a chance not to play the whole season. I think he along with the fam was probably taken a back the team went almost 2 full seasons without him and maintained a winning record.

His MVP honor....

IS NOTHING MORE THAN A COMPLETE JOKE OF THE NBA AWARDING SUCH A PLAYER FOR SOMETHING HE PROBABLY DIDN'T DESERVE

Noah's is playing hurt

Taj is still down and out but said he'll return

Rose doesn't even want to try

Seriously if I were his teammate I'd say straight to his face.....DON'T SAY A WORD TO ME UNTIL YOU GET BACK ON THE COURT AND HE CAN TAKE THAT ALONG WITH HIS MAX CONTRACT FULL OF FREE CHECKS THIS SEASON TO THE BANK!
