Bernstein: Rose No Longer Humble, Hometown Kid
By Dan Bernstein-
CBSChicago.com Senior Columnist

(CBS) Complaining while not playing is a bad look for someone who has sold a phony reputation as a humble, team-oriented kid.

According to a story in the New York Daily News, Rose is now unhappy that the Bulls will have to reconstruct their roster in an effort to win a championship, apparently thinking that such a move would be a waste of his precious time and efforts.

“Rose has told several confidantes that he is worried that the Bulls will start to let the team hit the skids by allowing key players to leave via free agency, forcing him to go through a rebuilding program he wants no part of.

‘Derrick is worried that the Bulls are going to lose what they have,’ said a league source. ‘He doesn’t want to go through rebuilding.’”

Well, too bad.

What does he think they have, and where does he think it’s going? Most importantly, what does he not understand about the primary reason for the Bulls’ current plight? It takes some nerve to call out his employers after they have paid him 30% of their salary cap to miss consecutive seasons.

This is typical behavior from a player who has always done only what is in his personal best interest, everybody else be damned. He’ll take every last dollar, and enjoy all the team-supplied resources for medical consultations, surgeries, rehabilitation programs and various therapists, only to ignore their professional opinions just because he feels like it. And don’t bother asking him for even token assistance in welcoming potential free agents either, because he doesn’t want to.

At this moment, John Paxson and Gar Forman are trying to win an NBA championship more in spite of Derrick Rose than because of him.


It doesn’t help anything that Rose is not among the brightest bulbs, and that he still lives in an insular camp of cronies that is too often at odds with his team. It was understandable for him to be shielded from Englewood gangs and other unsavory influences enough to get him a fair shot at a pro career, but enough already. He’s 25 years old, in his fifth NBA season, is worth a quarter-billion dollars and has a family of his own, yet his uneducated oaf of an older brother remains the empowered svengali.

Reggie Rose is a clown, using the guise of brotherly love to aggrandize himself after a failed career as both player and coach that was marked by bizarre, immature behavior. Bulls officials have become increasingly frustrated by continued communication problems with Rose due to Reggie’s invasive influence, with one source telling WSCR “It’s like talking to a wall.”

Perhaps the best advice came from Charles Barkley last February, when he opined on TNT that instead of complaining about Bulls business, Reggie should “shut the hell up.”

Another problem is the presence of BJ Armstrong as part of Rose’s group as one of his agents. Armstrong’s personal bitterness toward Paxson and the Bulls runs long and deep: he’s still angry that he didn’t get the chance to replace Jerry Krause as GM and Paxson did, and the two former teammates are not on speaking terms. As long as he is allied with Rose there will be an undercurrent of conflict, with any comment or action subject to interpretation regarding ulterior motive.

Derrick Rose needs to grow up, wise up, and seize control of his image and career before he and the bozos around him fritter away a mountain of good will, scattering his civic capital to the winds.

He’s got the money, and that’s it.

He says he’s all about winning a championship, but then he carps about rebuilding when it appears his team is trying to do what it must to give him that very opportunity. That’s just dumb.

And it’s certainly not humble, so we can stop with that. The quiet superstar is quiet not because he is naturally self-effacing, but because he is bad at talking. The local-kid-made-good storyline is over. He likes to let his game speak for him, but then refuses to play even when instructed to by doctors. He opts for cartilage repair that requires a longer-term recovery, and then lacks the basic understanding of how that changes the team’s title trajectory.

As always, the Bulls are trying to take care of themselves while Derrick Rose tries to take care of Derrick Rose on the Bulls’ dime.

Sadly, the two endeavors don’t always seem to be working toward the same ends.

:damn: :damn: :damn: :damn: :damn:

Sounds like some Coli poster wrote this

:whoo:

Man fukk CBS and this bull shyt article.

yea same group of journalists who shytted on Lebron for wanting to play with other superstars

I think D.Rose opting for cartilage repair is the best decision he could have made. What? these cacs wanted him to remove the ligament which would allow him to return quicker but fukk up his long term health. :rudy: fukk outta here.

Anybody who co-signs this article is a Sucka. Nothing cited in this article points to Rose being a selfish player....:camby:

Didn't read, but however vicious,, he deserved it.


He fukked up not coming back last year in the playoffs.... That dumb decision might forever destroy his career

:what:

I bolded the shyt to read and you still come in and say, "Didn't read"?


bulls should probably trade him at this point, if they want to rebuild get whatever you can for him.
:dahell:

Dawg, all they have to do is not fukk with this tank and they'll be in the lottery this season. Amnesty Boozer in the offseason, bring over Mirotic, snatch Charlotte's pick if it's in the teens and trade Deng before the deadline for more assets/future picks and the rebuilding process won't even last beyond this current season.

I'm not sure why everybody is running with this Daily News shyt anyway, I don't know what was said, but I am truly dumbfounded if Rose is honestly worried about "losing what they have"... they don't have enough WITH you so what the hell is he tripping about?

This should have been done after his ACL tear IMO.

Right.

I wasn't going to make a thread, but after I read it I was like...

:wtf:

This dude was going HAM on this nikka. Had me thinking he's basically trolling for attention and listeners for his show. And for him to just go off of that small leak of "news" reported made me laugh. They're trying to start some kind of smear job here and I'm not sure why

rose is going to be severely restricted next season even with the tank; i'm not even sure if he'll be the same player anymore after 2 major surgeries and basically 3 full seasons. IMO it's time to part with him while he's still considered valuable. teams around the league will throw all kinds of picks and players for him.
