Rose has missed 2 and a half out of the last 3 seasons. Until proven otherwyise it looks like he is just one of those guys who can't stay healthy.

It is frustrating but landing on a foot happens. At least it wasn't trouble with the knee after no contact.

GTFO. He twisted his ankles. You do realize he had that issue heavily in high school and in college which is why Adidas developed those special braces for him, right? And has he suffered many ankle injuries? Not really. Only time I can think is when the Bulls training staff was adamant about taping his ankles and not using the braces.

 

What makes your argument worse is that they are mild sprains(guess what, players get injured throughout the season), and that he has been playing less violent than any year before. Yet, you probably are the type asking why Rose is taking so many jumpshots and complain about that too.

 

Westbrook broke his hand in the 2nd game of the season and is out 4-6 weeks. Last year, he had to dealing with coming back from a torn meniscus. OMG HES INJURY PR0N3!!!!

 

Prior to the knee last year and the hand this year, has he missed any more time? Rose has had a ton of little things (in addition to the big) the last 4 seasons.

Good Niko game. Bad Doug game.

 

I'd like to see Doug go to the hole more when he is out there or post up, instead of just sitting on the wing waiting to shoot. He's an inside/outside guy. Not just outside.

If Jimmy is actually going to score this season we're going to be in excellent shape. Obviously it was only one game but he flashed some signs in the preseason as well that at least gives me some hope.

I actually have no doubt about it. At the very least his getting to the line at will.

 

The bigger question to me is how he plays with Rose. They have not played much together and when they have Jimmt looks like he just stands watching.

I just want to say, through three games, this Bulls team has been the most fun team to watch since the Jordan era. They are just fun to watch. Lots of new faces to see what they will bring, plus the steady stream of familiar faces as well. This team has a ton of talent and I will anxiously watch to see how it all plays out.

 

Jimmy looked fantastic and quick in his first game back. For whatever reason, probably injuries, he looked slower last year. When he plays aggressive, he is going to get a lot of free throws for us and his jumper looked much more consistent. Again, small sample size but add in his value on defense and I loved seeing that. I hope he plays himself into a max contract!!!

2010 was pretty fun to watch. MVP Rose and then some dominate defense with the bench mob. But yeah this is a lot of fun through three games. I'm excited to watch mcbuckets and mirotic grow into their roles.

While I still think that team could have won with a healthier Rose, I feel like it did have its flaws where as this team I think on paper has more talent, but again, has its own set of flaws including major questionmarks around the identity / sustainable health of Rose + the fact that some of that talent are young rookie players who will likely hit walls and still have a lot to learn. I feel that this team moving forward though, 1 to 2 years from now has even more upside though which is nice.
