Bernstein reporting a riff between Rose/Butler over being alpha dog

Jason Goff backing it up saying Rose wanted to be checked out of the game if the offense wasnt running thru him

There is a new sheriff in town and he doesn't know what the hell a barbershop looks like on the inside, it's Jimmy Butler. Derrick needs to realize that now and stop pulling Pippen moves.

I really hope this isnt true. But it does make sense in regards to Rose not recruiting stars

that's always been my thought that the bulls were not about firing thibs with that much money on the table. but then again, all reports have suggested that the bulls were gonna get rid of him regardless, which means, that garpax already have the blessing from the don jerry reinsdorf to toss that $9M in the :bushess:
Why hasn't he been fired yet then?

Rose cut <<< Jimmy's tho

Rose don't even have his shyt lined up.

Anyway, I always felt that their chemistry was off all year, a lot of that had to do with Rose missing 30 games. They need more time on the floor together. They aren't there chemistry wise like Steph/Kay or even Wall/Beal yet.

And I know I'm not the only one that would get annoyed when the offense would go away from Jimmy when Rose came back, especially late in games where we've seen him close games by getting baskets or FTs all year.

In the ocean where the sharks be at
I'm tired rose talking. he's been saying the same old shyt while recovering about how he added more things to his game and that he is a smarter player. Really? Cuz I didn't see none of that shyt this whole season and especially this playoffs.

I'm glad that he is physically getting acclimated, but his bball iq and shot selection has really regressed.


At times Rose flashed new parts of his game but the main issue is how our offense is setup. Aside from Thibs calling plays almost every rip, it's so structured that Rose is basically in a box with what he can do. In our offense he usually only scores off a Noah pick or in transition. No backdoors/curls/screens etc.

dude got a post game he unleashed for a quick second in game 6 but he really can't get to it with Noah/Pau clogging the lane.

He also showed better patience/passing in the pick and pop with Pau/pick and roll with Noah(he was garbage at it with Boozer).

Plus he showed better ability to find dudes in transition.

He showed a lot of new tricks but by the fourth he was gassed and was cool with jus taking jumpers or swinging the ball.

He gon clown next season

IMO...That's the players Rose needs around him to win a championship. I'm inclined to think we should've took a flier on McGee. We're close, but it's obvious, and I've been saying this for the past few seasons....we need to get more athletic up front...

Honestly, I don't know how far they going with it on the local radio, but watching them play it did seem at times like they would just take turns getting theirs. I just don't get the Bulls shot selection at times... and Rose is guilty of this too. Guys would have it going, or there would be a mismatch and it just looked like they didn't know how to get the guys that needed the rock the ball. I've never seen a team struggle so much to deliver a damn entry pass into the post in my life

Who knows whats true and what isnt

but this much is ... that locker room was a mess all season

Pau had to feel like he got duped coming here
It would explain his lack of aggressiveness throughout periods of that series and the playoffs as a whole. If there's any truth to that, Rose needs to sit his ass down.
