That's what I've been saying the last two years and majority didn't believe me. Bulls have a superb constructed roster and would be one of the top teams even without Rose. Getting MVP and people saying Bulls would be a lottery team without him is ridiculous. He gets way too much credit for their success.
OKC is playing like the best team in the NBA right now. If Chicago is not careful they can get blown out in this game.
Just because Chicago is playing great without Rose doesn't mean he shouldn't have gotten MVP last year.
Why not? It shows he had a damn good team around him unlike Dwight. He also cost his team the Eastern conference finals
Regarding the Rose MVP question, he won because he was the best palyer on the best team last year and he did have a great year. He will be nowhere near it this year even if Chicago finishes with the best record. If Durant wins the MVP this year it will be for the same reason. If you always go with the best player in the league choice Lebron should have won every MVP award since his third year in the league and Jordan should have about 10 instead of 5.
I guess you guys fail to realize that Noah and Boozer missed a lot of time last year. If Rose was out with hose guys the Bulls would not have had the season they had last year. Also Rose costing his team in the Eastern Conference Finals has nothing to do with the MVP award considering it's a regular season award.
I'll make a prediction: With the way Kobe has been shooting lately, I think Durant will pass him in the socring lead and win his third straight scoring title this year and that will help his MVP case.
I have no clue what you are talking about at this point. And yes Rose was the MVP last year which was what I was talking about. I'm not sure why you're still whining about him winning the MVP last year.
This is where a Thibs' team get exposed -- regular season champs are regular season champs. Simply not enough talent, even with Rose.
