    Boozer was injured, Noah was injured, Deng is admittedly playing pretty well actually.

    Rose keeps that team together as well as leads them. He's like a glue guy and a leader in one.

    What does this have to do with with winning the MVP in the NBA. Get over it.

    Dude, I was making fun of some other guy for saying "Rose. Rose....". I was not making an argument about who should be MVP. Every time Rose is mentioned there is a good chance someone is going to make fun of him for cheating on the SAT. Get over it.

    Exactly people seem to forget that Boozer and Noah have both been hurt.

    while missing 54 combined games is certainly not insignificant, it's not the entire season. and the bulls have missed something like 3 other total games to injury for the rest of the roster. 54 games for 2 of your better players and complete health otherwise can't be that crazy in terms of injuries i wouldn't think. i mean i'm sure there are healthier teams but it's not as if chicago has been devastated.

    It is crazy when people mention him having those 2 guys as help as to why he shouldn't be the MVP. It's also tough to develop chemistry when key guys are out especially Boozer who was new in Chicago this year.

    the bulls win with defense and rebounding. it's easier to develop chemistry if you win games with those.

    boozer and noah missing games, you can argue, contributed to their mediocre offense

    Craig Ackerman is just..... the worst. Followed by their half time guy (Joel blank? ) who rhymes the first half highlights.

    The Durantula has my vote. Currently leads the league in scoring and is improving as an all-around player. Did I mention he is OKC's Mr. Intangibles, too? Rose? Peh - he's just a human highlight reel.

    Exactly. The fact that the team didn't completely bomb while they were out shows Rose's importance on this team. Their starting SG is Keith Bogans. KEITH BOGANS. A guy that was struggling with even making Houston's active roster a few years back.

    I meant he'd be the third best player behind Lebron and Wade. But since you asked - yes - actually. I think Bosh would be a far better fit for the Rockets than Rose and I'm quite happy with Lowry.

    They were both injured for stretches - but that team is deep as hell. You can't convince me that Rose should be MVP. You can convince me (and I am convinced) that Thibodeau should be coach of the year.

    when you have a great defense and rebounding as your backbone, you're never going to "bomb." that only happens if a team relies a lot on their offense.

    there is a reason the teams like the bobcats who have the second worst offense in the L and is still fighting for a playoff spot in the east. or how the bucks were able to make the playoffs with THE WORST offense last year

    if you play defense and rebound in this L, you're never going to be out of games. and the bulls DOMINATE in those 2 areas. absolutely DOMINATE.

    If Rose were really as good of an offensive player as people say he is, the Bulls would probably be an above average offensive team.

    In before someone tells me that he's playing with Keith Bogans and I direct them to go look at what LeBron had in Cleveland.

    I can deal with Ackerman most of the time but Joel Blank's rhyming recaps have to be the lamest thing on the air......................well maybe after that D-bag Innes.

    Post #31.

    So you're meaning to tell me Larry Hughes and/or Mo Williams was on par with Keith Bogans?

    Durant isn't even the MVP on his team.
