Quick Thought: Derrick Rose

Posted by on Saturday, January 31, 2009 2 Comments

I hated the Bulls pick of Rose, even though I felt he was the best player in the draft. I thought he would get muddled with the Bulls guards and have to progress too quickly. He’s worlds above every player on that team. The style on offense is flashing and brutal. He’s active and focused on defense, never frantic, never lost. He’s certain with his movement, slick with this adjustments, and there’s not a piece of his game I haven’t seen from him. Hustle, rebounding, touch, power, speed, quickness, anticipation.

I wonder what he’s going to be like when he’s got a real coach.

Last year I thought the Bulls should have tried to hire Avery Johnson. I still think they should. And his having been NBA point guard will help Rose out even more. Do you think the bulls should try to hire Johnson after this season? And do you think they will?
