He’d have just been the ‘00-‘04 Duncan to LeBron’s ‘00-04 Shaq.

I.e. getting smacked in 4 or 5 games every year, outnumbered 2 (or more) stars to 1 History of Trunks Gohan vs the Androids type shyt, until maybe he catches a break in a ‘03 type transition year for Bron’s supporting cast.

Which would’ve been either the flabbier 2014 Heatles, or injury-prone 2015 Cavs. All assuming a healthy Rose wouldn’t get frustrated with the Bulls mgt/demand a trade by then.

Drose mvp year the bulls had 4 all stars

If they could’ve kept their core stayed healthy and added pieces they could’ve beaten the Heat eventually.

Their core worked well together
Until the last 5 minutes of a game when everyone knew that Rose was going to have the ball in his hands because no one else on the team could create.

That Heat team had defenders that could move. Could have 5 guys focus on Rose and as soon as he gave up the ball, recover easily because Korver couldn't take more than 2 dribbles, Noah wasn't doing shyt, Booz wasn't doing shyt with Bosh, and Deng wasn't a creator.
