Damn good question




Im hoping rose (Knick fan) but rose coming o a brand new team him having to learn a new offense and rose not being the 1st or 2nd option?

Thats melo and porzingus (I'm hoping)


Bulls fans has rose ever shown he could be a pass first player :patrice:?



Conley knows his team and knows the system :yeshrug:



plus you have the Zen master trying to push that damn tri-angle :francis:

Yeah he's got vision. He likes to jump and pass tho, so ull see some TOs. He can run an offensive ok but he doesn't push the ball. He's on some jog it up shyt 80% of the time. Also since he doesn't threaten defenders like he used to and has a weak j, niccas gonna sag off

Rose came in the league a pass first player, it was the make up of the roster that forced him into a score 1st role. He got a bad rap last season, he was literally the only 1 in the starting 5 last season that would give the ball up early,

But I don't know how well he can get this offense Phil trying to implement. It calls for a lot of off the ball movement and rose has never really played under a coach that has had that kind of offense. Thibs def didnt, and hoiberg was horrible with teaching movement without the ball.

As for the thread, the answer is likely conley, simply because he with the same team he been with forever and understand what is expected already, rose has an entirely new roster, has to figure out a new offense, and how to play with a guy like melo who is not the easiest to adjust to. It will likely be a lot of 1 on 1 play until they find some kind of chemistry.

BAY AREAAAAAAA!!!!
I got in no order

Bulls
Cavs
Boston
Hornets
Toronto
Detroit
Pacers
Hawks

Then you have teams like the bucks wiz heat who in also think will be better

But I could be wrong and rose and Noah could show us something we've haven't seen in four years. Hornecek could prove that his 32-118 record is a mulligan, and the bench lead by Sasha vujachic and Kyle oquin could be x factors.

But I doubt it

:scust:

Naw fam. If Wall and Beal get their shyt together, I think they'll take that playoff spot from the Bulls. I'm just not seeing how this Bulls team will be successful.

I think Conley will have the better season stats wise, but we all know the Grizzlies won't get past the second round so idk if it matters too much. The Knicks actually at least have a chance to make the ECF as currently constructed.

I think Rose will average 19pts, 5rbd, & 5ast. Conley 22pts, 5rbd, and 7.5ast. IF they stay healthy.

Chemistry on the Knicks is keeping the ball away from Melo. He likes eating the ball on the wings and its frustrating as fukk.

I am personally glad we got a ball dominant ball hog to keep the ball away from that fukk.
