Noah, who is actually hurt, is playing. Rose isn't.

 

Noah > Rose

Bulls getting absolutely destroyed right now.

Williams \ Lopez show

f***in' C.J.

 

Where the hell was this when you played for the Bulls?

I'm really starting to feel bitter about Derrick Rose.

 

Joakim Noah is out there playing on one foot and Derrick's sitting his ass on the bench.

 

FWIW, I hope a good amount of the fan base turns on him. I want him to re-earn his spot as the superstar on this team. There's no guarantee he returns to pre-injury form after he finally does play sometime next season. I wouldn't be surprised if the boo birds came out if he struggles.

Williams \ Lopez show

 

Nobody on the Bulls showed any ability at all to stay in front of Williams that half. You simply can't switch Belinelli on him though, it was comical watching Belinelli try to stay in front of him.

Just tuning in. We got this!

IF ONLY WE HAD 4 MORE BOOZERS (things you thought you would never say)

Good God defense...and they can't miss when we do play half-ass decent D

is Nate Robinson dead? Kirk is playing his worst defensive game right now.

Andray Blatche making 20 footers. What to do?

Not a good night.

Indeed. Not much good to say. Carlos had a good offensive day. Some nice offensive possessions by Jimmy.

The team played alright in the second half.

 

Rip Hamilton shouldn't play another minute in the series. He's so damn bad.

Noah iced foot, showered, dressed and iced foot again when addressing reporters. Will he play in Game 2? "Hell yeah I’ll be out there."

Rose's logic.

OMG, the Rose jokes are getting old.

 

We get it. You think he's a p****.

THIS!

ummm... because he is?

I can't believe no one pointed out that, according to ESPN on last night's telecast, Derrick Rose said he's 100% physically, but not mentally.

 

It's going to be really hard to care about this b**** again.

Interesting. Who brought that up? I am surprised he would tell anyone that. I wouldn't be surprised if that's just ESPN trying to add fuel to the fire.

This is going to be a long off-season for Rose.

I don't see how there are any guarantees that Derrick comes back at the beginning of next year. The threshold for feeling good enough is incomprehensible for us both.

Awesome start to the NBA playoffs. The Warriors/Nuggets game was a lot of fun.

Torn hip flexor for David Lee, out for the duration of the playoffs.

Does anyone think that maybe Rose is listening to his agent/brother and trying to get the fans/Bulls to run him out of town because they believe he can't win a championship here? He's still getting paid anyway while he doesn't play and maybe his inner circle is saying that this is the best way to get out of town and into a situation where they can build around him, and not to take a physical beating for what they believe to be no reason? With all of the backlash that LeBron got for leaving his "hometown" on his own nationally, maybe this is a more strategic approach for his camp to get him out of Chicago and to a team that they believe to have more building blocks? I hate to be the conspiracy theorist but if this is what he is doing, I wish he would just ask for a trade already. I think we'll see that if he doesn't come back at the beginning of next season or maybe this summer. I am basing this on Reggie Rose's comments a couple months ago that I heard reported on the Score, where he said that there is no reason for Derrick Rose to come back if there is no chance for him to win a championship, and he believes that Miami is too good right now for anyone to beat them.
