Darren Collison?

he pretty much sucked through the first 3 quarter, and only showed up in the 4th.

I’ve never understood blacking out games, though. Especially for someone who pays a big fee to see all the games for a reason. Just doesn’t make sense.

Rose said he wanted to be aggressive

and he pulls up for jumpers on fast breaks. He was shying away from contact when he went up against Gasol, softer than I’ve ever seen him play.

Rose's shot

Rose shoots his shot on the same pace/bent of knees as a dribble. It makes it harder to read and defend but it also makes it go flat and short without enough spin

I'd like to believe that but Fisher didn't beat with quickness

The lats two plays Rose got beat on D:

1) Went for a pump fake from Fisher and Fisher went past him while Rose was in the air
2) Rose got brushed off on a pick and took a bad angle and couldn’t get back in front of Fisher

So I don’t know if that’s physical or just bad D I guess. It looked like bad D to me.

CHILL OUT taj haters

He’s a rookie, against some good big guys with length, back in la where he went to college, give him a break. Of course he’s not playing well but we don’t have tyrus so he has to play

They have great length, which means you have to body them first (before jumping)

How many nice guys get calls?

Gotta learn how to bitch and whine like the game’s elite. Once Derrick starts acting like he’s entitled to calls, they’ll go his way.

Derrick does bitch at the refs. Watch him sometime after he gets hacked. He gives them the evil eye and

yells. It’s just not happening for him.

Then go full Kobe/LeBron and politic or something.

I realize Rose is incapable of saying more than 10 words at a time, but something has to change in the ref/player relationship.

Yeah. I dono. It's just ridiculous, even lesser stars than Rose get a ton more calls.

It just makes NO sense.

Never seen a guy in control

be surrounded by 3 defenders and get called for an offensive foul. What could he have done? It’s not like he thought he was going to drive through that.

Anyone see Deng

besides on a milk carton?

Rose is playing well, his penetration is making things happen

Salmons also. Just go to the rim and get those bigs in foul trouble!

by Mr Rhythm on Nov 19, 2009 10:36 PM CST reply actions  

They can kick him in the balls

And they wont get called on for a foul
