He's not better than Paul, Nash, Williams, Rondo, Billups or Parker... And he's not even clearly better yet than Devin Harris or Russell Westbrook, or healthy versions of Baron Davis and Gilbert Arenas...
but baron Davis and Arenas are never heathly so whats the point of bringing them up? and you of all people are the 1st to point that out


Drose at 75% is better then no Drose at all and he and the bulls know that. so to say that because he is not 100% he should be on the bench is dumb

you can tell he ant 100% on that ankle because he is not driving to the lane like he was last year most of his points come of jump shots now

gordon has nothing to do with rose play

Ok i reached but D rose is 6'2 half max. He's not 6'4 as listed. I read the Chicago precamp work out measurement and the scout wasdisappointed that Derrick was not a true 6'4

 

[statis22]

Yall didn't have to go in on A. Brooks like that.

 

[one11archerave]

ahh, i've been thinking this in the back of my mind for a while just didn't want to say it out loud.

Tell that to Chris Paul.

I've stood next to Brooks before and this dude can't be over 6'0. My friend is 6'0 exactly and was noticeably taller than him.

That seems a little intense for a first reply to this thread. "Shocking" come on now, its so early in the season you can't comparenumbers. They have only played roughly 30% of the teams in the league. Your not gonna have a groove going and your game on lock until you get some games underyou. NBA Season is a lot different than pre-season.

D Rose will get it going and his stats will just look down at Aaron Brooks by the end of the year.

 

[nicedudewithnicedreams]

Why the hate on Brooks though? Haha.

 

[khoshabasfinest23]

He is overrated here in Chicago. These homer bulls fans I live near already claiming he's better than d-wil and cp3.

Personally he's not even top 5

cp3
Deron
Tony parker
Chauncey
rondo
steve Nash

In no particular order but those 6. >rose

 

[kn0wledgeable]

Too early for this.

Stop it. If he's playing, it's because he's still gives the team a better chance to win than the next healthy option. Like a coaching staff doesn't consciously think about something like this.

 

[youngtriz]

if rose is hurt then you really cant put anything into this season until he is fully healthy.. word to wade for what he did over the last year...

Hilarious.

 

[cedric ceballos 1995 lakers]

overrated no, not playing up to expectations 2 weeks into an 82 game season yes.

with a ton of season left he'll get it together, if im not mistaken i don't think he started off hot last season either.

 

[al3xis]

PG's are the new WR's on NT.

 

[kaycurrency]

All the other PG's listed have "go to guys" to pass to....Rose is the "go to guy" on the Bulls....Noone on the Bulls is a PURE scorer,PG's need Scorers...Or at least an effective big man.


Deng is a BIG let down...Noah plays like a Deer learning to walk... getting rid of Gordon was a mistake, smh

 

[Chester McFloppy]

Someone said Aaron Brooks is better than DRose?

Really? REALLY?

NBA season on NT...

 

[im not you]

I think dudes are just too excited that basketball is back. Because we're like 9 games into the season and people are already saying some of the mostridiculous thing and formulating ridiculous opinions.

Calm down...this is not the NFL. You can't tell #!#! about what's going on after the first few weeks of the season.

 

[shoeking2101]

You have to understand how important ben gordon was to what they did in chicago last season. Without Ben, it puts a lot of pressure on everyone else to score.More attention is on rose now with the departure of Ben, subsequently he's ask to do more, the opponents know that, and he isn't a deft scorer, so thatprobably would explain the points drop.

Oh, and maybe not better, but brooks can score better than rose;and rose doesn't play anybody's defense at all. That team in chicago imo is reallyhurting with the loss of ben gordon
