Let's Blame Management, Not Rose



I see that this has become a Rose bash site, and when you defend him you can't post, well here goes again, outside of the fact that there are no allstars on the bulls, and our roster consists of has beens, never was, and never will be's somehow magically he is supposed to take on the NBA all by his lonesome.  So when this magic doesn't happen let's blame Rose, well  here is a flash let's get some real basketball talent around him and see what he does, and I would be the first one to bash him, also throw in a real Coach.

Mediocrity

we have been watching it so long, we have forgot what real basketball looks like, it is something like what we have been hit over the head with the last 3 games, wake up, you have nothing here but a joke of NBA team.

Not pessimistic just dissapointed

I have seen this rebuilding played out over the last 10 years and finally we get a player that has some talent who is coming off an injury in his second year while only 3 years removed from high school and we want to dump on him.

I blame James Johnson.

Clearly the poor play has come from his presence on the bench.

Being as he could have been DeJuan Blair, Ty Lawson, Chase Budinger....

one might say his presence is hurting them

no we don't have to blame anybody but management

what is the logic for Lindsay, that is a roster spot, and who is replacing Gray and T.Thomas while out on injury.This is the whole point of a G.M. to costruct a roster, where are the replacements.

I'm sure some of you kids on here have played street ball at some point or another, or ran a game at your local 24 fitness....

If you have, then you’ve played with some dudes who were half way decent, and some cats who stunk it up. Did you ever notice how playing with crappy players literally brings your game down a bit or even to their level, or worse?. Ive seen it, Ive had it happen to me, and Ive seen some of the most gifted cats play like shit when their teammates sucked. Im sure thats what is happening to rose. This team is bringing his quality of play way down. Guarantee you, if you stuck rose on the Lakers, or the Heat, or even the Hawks right now, we would be seeing a completely different rose. So, stop putting the kid down for not driving to the hoop every possession, or not taking enough shots, or taking too many shots. You want to see this guy shine for real, put some talent around him. Plain and simple.

Sugarbear, Rose is getting alot of criticism

Some warranted, and some isn’t. Management for Chicago does suck, and if this cat named Jordan hadn’t come to this town nobody would even consider Chicago a basketball city, and to be honest with you, it’s really the third most popular sport in town behind baseball and football. Even Reinsdorf’s first love is baseball and that’s telling. With that being said, Rose is a really good player, the goodest player the Bulls have, he’s young, in a slump, and is still learning the game. I also think him being some what not smart is making him struggle right now. There is a saying that in sports you have to be 70% mentally and 30 percent physically out of sight, (or something like that). Rose having doubts in his head, confidence being shaken, playing poorly due to being out of shape, and thinking too much instead of just going with the flow, is the root of his problems. A few good games, dunking on Oden, playing well on the road, and if he ever breaks through and makes plays in the clutch taking over a game or two will get this kid back on track. It’s way too early in the season, and even earlier in the guys career to write him off, to discuss trading him, or anything else. Especially after he had a dynamite rookie season. If we want to get rid of anybody, I think it should be Vinny, his stooge assistants, and his yes man Lyndsey Hunter!

by Mr Rhythm on Nov 25, 2009 8:24 AM CST up reply actions  

Excellent point

Coaching is critical in molding talent in early years, for this reason I shudder at a Rookie coach with a rookie player, I remember the years it took for MJ to finally break free from what held him back to start those Championship runs, I think in his heart he is a competitor and when he blossoms, he will explode on the scene. When other nba players talk of him they become estatic describing him, he needs defensive work, and he needs to become more court aware, but again this is year two and the nba ain’t the ymca league.

Blame management for Rose's lack of development.

Blame Thomas for his.

Got it.

Well good teams hire good coaches to coach their talent. The Lakers wouldn’t hire someone like VDN…so yeh management is somewhat to blame.

by C Smoove on Nov 25, 2009 1:50 PM CST up reply actions  

Championship is Lakers Goal

Not to have to pay Luxury tax, this is Bulls concern, We have VDN only because of Scott Skiles contract, If not that we pack that Madhouse on Madison would it be such a slap in our face that we have this charade of a team, instead of an honest effort to put a competitive team on the floor.

by sugarbear06 on Nov 25, 2009 3:01 PM CST up reply actions  

I agree that it's both.

I was just pointing out that for Thomas’s first 3 years, everyone has blamed him except for his absolutely turbulent coaching situation. All of a sudden Rose isn’t doing well, and it’s the management’s fault. On the other hand, Noah’s been good. I think it’s both sides’ “fault.” Thomas has been a malcontent and Rose might not be as good as we think. But the management clearly stinks.

we need studmuffin aaron gray back

by sweetneyisfat on Nov 26, 2009 12:13 AM CST reply actions  

After witnessing the complete trainwreck the last 3 games, I actually am looking forward to see the studmuffin come back.

How can his presence make the Bulls any worse?

Also I like Tiger’s sarcasm. Rose’s fall off is all managements fault. TT’s lack of development is all his fault. Great point.

Finally, after a dozen games some are jumping off the Rose bandwagon because he is having trouble penetrating against a thick forest of trees. You’d think the lanes would be open all the time with our 3 point accuracy dead last in the league and the failure of our high screen pick and rolls which every team in the league can easily defend since we have so few other options, especially when the jump shots are clanking and ball movement remains stagnant…thanks Kurt, Fish, Jannero, Brad, Taj, etc. But I’m not going to pin any of this on 0 for the season, Lindsay Hunter who is worried about losing his Medicare benifits under the proposed new health care bill.

I admit the bloom is definitely off the Rose, but remember folks, even a beautiful rose has many thorns, and it doesn’t help that our resident green thumb, Vinny, doesn’t know how to nourish and water his garden having been a bricklayer all his career.

If you can't answer a man's arguments, all is not lost. You can still call him vile names.
