It would just cause an identity crisis for the bulls for the rest of the playoffs. And this put thibs in a tough spot. Do you play your rusty star in the closing minutes of the game? Or do you play the guy who's been his replacement all season who's been hot? Either way, if they lose, they will blame him for not playing the other guy.

I highly doubt he'd start right away.

Even if he did come back, I can't see him being able to play more than 12-15 minutes. If he leads your second unit in their minutes in the second/third quarters and can provide a little scoring pop in a game or 2 its probably worth it.

Of course he wouldn't start. But who would finish the games when the games are going down to the wire?

Well if you're only talking about the end of the game then obviously there's already a sample size to look at.

What glory? In the big picture they haven't accomplished shite.


 

No talk of him playing until game 1 win. Along with his brothers comments it seems he waant playing because he didn't think the could win and was iust gonna waot till next year.
They win game 1 and proves streak snapper wasn't a fluke. Now he wants to magically jump in because if the bulls do something special they dobt realIze they can do it without him

This would mean that he is ready to go now. If he pussies out and doesn't play game 2 it's such a bitch move.

This is ridiculous. You have to play him if he wants to go. They want to win a title and you need D-Rose to do that.

The issue would be the rust with Rose.


A rusty Derrick Rose is better than most.

And the pussy has been practicing for a couple months now. Not the same as a game, but he wouldn't be as rusty as a non pussy that came back as soon as he was medically cleared.

It's not like they're up 30 at the half of Game 7 of the Finals and now he wants to play. Being up 1-0 in the semis means very little. They won a game, they aren't on the brink of history.

Laugh all you want. It's a great feel good story. But if you watched Game 1 at all, Miami missed a ton of open shots that you can bank will start falling. Heart and grit will only get you so far. The Bulls need someone that can beat people off the dribble consistently. But you're right, let's bank on Belinelli being the starting 2 guard on a championship team.

I'm guessing he was laughing at the mention of the bulls winning a championship even with Rose

Ideally, the Bulls would wait til he's 100% to put him back on the court but if he's at least 85% then put his arse out on the court.

I fully believe he will be dressed in game gear in Game 3. Whether he plays is something totally different. The NBA is praying on its hands and knees he does come back this series. The ratings would go through the roof.

be the dumbest move he and bulls organization could make. toss a player who is scared he will get hurt again, who has not played a min all year, who will mess up every bit of team chemistry chicago has going for them right now.. and for what? d rose to try and get in the spotlight now that he sees his team is succeeding without him? this should be good
