Have a game Jimmy!

People don't care about Rose's contract. The problem is his attitude and the perception that he is not willing to push himself when  injured. He's never gotten over the playoffs of a couple years ago when all reports said he was ready but he later claimed to be looking out for his future earning potential.

I believe, within the locker room, that Rose's very presence is cancerous. He's an entitled baby.

How about at media day before this season, when, without even being asked about it, Rose brought up his potential free agency in TWO YEARS ... and said THAT was his focus?

As Tony Soprano woulda said: "Can you believe da balls on dat guy?"

Derrick Rose is not an intelligent individual (yeah I know - this just in). He is a dope, and the peeps who handle him are dopes. Put that together with his salary, his injuries and the fact that he has become a mediocre basketball player, and he has gone from Chicago Sports Hero to pariah in just a couple of years.

It's been an amazing fall.

Also, it appears Hoiberg was a pretty significant mistake. I think they thought they were getting Steve Kerr 2.0 but Hoiberg has never had a fraction of Kerr's personality. Kerr is more like Doc Rivers.

This.

When Rose was a player it was easier to put up with brother Reggie, the gang signs and all the rest. This isn't his team anymore and it shouldn't be.

I have no problem with Jimmy calling out his teammates or his coach  - Thibs is gone, so somebody has to do it. If everybody had JFB's work ethic the Bulls would be a far better team.

Wilt Chamberlain averaged 50.4 ppg for an entire season.  He, also, was pretty good at basketball.

How many broads did he average, hey?

I thought the exact same thing on one of JFB's steals in that Sixers game.  Everyone is looking down and out (idk which quarter it was), and then Jimmy lunges forward and takes it.

This is the reason that Jimmy doesn't have more assists

Go 50 seconds into the Jimmy highlights that were just posted. Almost literally the same exact situation and Noah swishes it. Crazy how it can be net and airball, same situation, same night.

Crazy good in that game. Post ups, step back jumpers, spinning fadeaways, going strong to the rim, steals... amazing

I'm very bad at basketball.

My stroke looks so much better than his. It's brutal watching him shoot!
