Coming out of the huddle of the last play of the Bulls game, I asked out loud why Derrick Rose was on the floor for a defensive possession at the end of the game.
I am still waiting for my answer. Dude didn't even get screened. He just lost Mayo. Embarrassingly bad.
No he didn't.
That game wouldn't have been tied after being down 6 a few seconds earlier without Rose. I think it's easy to bite on the first cut because you want to be able to contest the shot since you know it's a catch and shoot. It was a great play drawn up by Kidd. Why was everyone else defending the perimeter so closely, leaving down low so vacant.
The whole team outside of Jimmy was brutal, but go ahead and blame Rose for the loss.
