23 Reasons Derrick Rose Was a Good Pick For the Bulls
1- He's a scorer, averaging 15 points a game in his only season at the University of Memphis. That would have been third on the Bulls last season, but Rose's 48% shooting from the field would have tied him with Luol Deng for the team lead.
2- He's a passer, averaging five assists a game. Like any good player though, D-Rose [read more...]

Bulls Season In Review - Part 1

It was not too long ago that the Bulls were predicted by many experts to win the East. That now seems a distant memory, given the 1-5 start. Rookie Joakim Noah voiced his displeasure, saying "Teams are getting anything they want on us.'' He was later supported by local wiseman Jay Mariotti for him comments.
