He and Rose are essential to bring the Bulls back to the Promised Land.

Wished the Lakers had Noah instead of Howard… a pipe dream, I know.

Noah likely benefited from that as well.

I would imagine, based on your post, you’re way up there yourself….

Rose gets back. I’ll gladly take 14 & 10 from Jo a night! Great by him looking to expand his game on offense

He is one of the greatest centers to ever play and is the all time scoring leader. Learning from one of the all time greats can’t harm his game.

He helps to facilitate the offense because he passes the ball so well and he keeps the ball moving. If he adds another three points to his already 10.2 it’s a success.
