“One Man’s Opinion” by Gordon Curvey

Readers I love the NBA. I love the NBA playoffs. It is my time of the year. I am watching Seattle natives Nate Robinson and Tony Wroten Jr. do their thing in the playoffs for the Bulls and Girz and former Washington State Coug Klay Thompson is ballin for the Golden State Warriors. It is a lot of fun watching these players.

But one thing I hate is seeing former MVP Derrick Rose sitting on the freakin bench with $3,000 suits and screaming for his teammates with the Bulls instead of having his butt on the court after sitting out for a year with his injury. The Bulls doctors have gave him the go ahead to play months ago. But Rose continues to sit and saying he is not ready to play yet. This does not make sense readers. What is Derrick waiting for?

The Bulls can use his services right now. But Rose continues to say he is not ready to play. Derrick is taking a beating on sports radio in Chicago. Rose says he not paying attention to the radio or TV or online reports or the newspaper. That is not true readers. I know and you know Derrick reads this stuff. But he just does not care.

But the bottom line is Derrick Rose is just afraid mentally. Keep in mind Rose has been 5 on 5 in practice for the last month or so. Sweating up a storm. He works out before each Bulls playoff games. Again, sweating his ass off. But then he goes and puts on his expensive suit and he is back on the bench. It is time for Rose to play if he has been cleared to play months ago.

Derrick Rose is still getting PAID BIG MONEY folks. It is time for him to earn his money and get on the court and play point guard for the Chicago Bulls.  Man….if this was Kobe Bryant he would have been on the court. Let can bet your last money on that!! But this is Derrick Rose. Kobe Bryant. Well let’s see when Derrick Rose will make a return. When he does it will be a great day for the Chicago Bulls and their fans.
