Monday in Portland, Rose opened the second half by elevating over Greg Oden for his first dunk of the season. ”I really couldn’t believe it when I was up in the [...]

Before you scoff at the headline, bear with me for a minute.  Because he was a #1 draft pick and plays for a big market team, Derrick Rose has been the recipient of a lot of hype.  And some of it deserved.  He's got a lot of potential as a player.  But I've been watching Chicago play a lot this year (and last), and I'm pretty confident when I say that if Jerryd Bayless were to take over the starting PG spot for the Bulls, he would contribute...

Derrick Rose sliding slowly into.... Irrelevancy....now I'm not saying he's not in the mix for Team USA, but in this lengthy article where tons of names are dropped, he's nowhere to be seen. Colangelo says he's looking at Brandon Jennings, Blake Griffin, even Kevin Love..... Now, I'll bet Rose still gets an invite to the 25-player minicamp but could he make a 15-man Team USA roster right now? Probably not. It's even more telling that he's...

Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose has a listed height of 6'3", making him a full nine inches shorter than Portland center Greg Oden. But that didn't stop him when the former first overall draft picks faced off momentarily in last night's game between the Bulls and the Trail Blazers. Early in the third quarter, with Portland holding a commanding 66-51 lead, Rose drove to the basket and unleashed a powerful dunk on Oden. It wasn't a bad...

"I’m not getting no haircut," Derrick Rose was saying Wednesday after practice at USC. "I’m not touching my hair anymore until I get back on track. I’m just trying to change something.

Derrick Rose says: "Not yet," he said after the Bulls shootaround Tuesday morning. "I still haven't been feeling aggressive yet, but you'll probably see it in [Tuesday night against the Sacramento Kings]. I'm going to come out and just try to fight and be way, way more aggressive." That and maybe Salmons will get that Sacramento feel again?

Chicago 98, Portland 122: Greg Oden has one of his best games as a pro - 24 points and 12 rebounds - but the outstanding performance (7-of-8 shooting, six offensive rebounds, two blocks) will be marred by the above slam by Derrick Rose, and after the jump, the facial that Joakim Noah delivered to the [...]

Every year, we have these baby fresh rookies come into the league trying to make an impact right away. Last year we saw the likes of Derrick Rose, O.J. Mayo, Michael Beasley, and Kevin Love, just to name a few, show why the are going to be in this league for years to come. But, for every Derrick Rose there is a Danilo Gallinari, who, because of injuries or hard time adjusting to the NBA type of game, makes people scratch their heads. For me...

I don't know why the Chicago Bulls and its fans are putting so much of their heart at stake over Derrick Rose being the messiah of the Chicago Bulls. He's a good player, and can be a very good one, but I don't think he's the answer at the point guard position. I've said it before, but Derrick Rose is a poor man's Steve Francis . (The Rose video doesn't work anymore. If you want to see him in action, check out this ).He's not as creative, and can't shoot like him either. He accelerates and has the potential to play defense and fastbreak ... Read Full Story

Bulls had the Number 1 pick in the draft this year (One of Phil's two favorite teams) They selected Derrick Rose, a 6'3" guard out of Memphis whose hometown is Chicago... He's pretty awesome from what I see and am satisfied with this pick...He's being compared to Jason Kidd which is some big ass shoes to fill...SO it looks like probably im guessing that Kirk Heinrich will be on the move from Chi-town... Michael Beasley went 2nd to Miami as projected and OJ Mayo went 3rd to Minnesota... OJ Mayo is the funniest name in sports since CoCo Crisp...Just Sayin and the Phoenix Suns ... Read Full Story
