No excuse for Rose. I'm just stating my opinion. Boozer is always been a numbers guy and you are not going to make me think any different. As far as his decline in numbers that due to teams getting the que and playing taller athletic big men on him. Boozer missed like 40 games so I think that not a fair comparison on the regular season numbers, but even with that theres not a huge difference in 17 and 7 and 20 and 11.
Boozer played like 78 games his last year in utah while millsap played 76 this year. There is a huge difference between those numbers, not only is it 3 points scoring average, but 4 boards can be a 16 point swing, so it can be an 19 point difference depending on who on boozer team scores.
You ask 80-90% of league GMs which guy they'd rather have as a starting point guard on there roster an I guarantee you most would say Rose over D Will.
80% of gm's barely have jobs for more than 4 years because they make stupid moves continuously, irrelevant point.
Man I watched Miami-Bulls series. I think it was either 06 or 07, and Deng was not the go to guy on that squad it was Gordon.
Lol i never said deng was the go to guy, but he was the secondary offensive option , which was my point.
Yes Deng had a good series, but by your logic if he was so good then why wasn't he shining like that in the 4 years after that prior to Rose getting here.
Lol what? He put up better numbers before rose, wtf are you talkin about bruh?
My answer would be due to his injuries and in that Miami series he played a little above his head and Miami just picked their poision and it happened to be him. Gordon was far superior scorer than him and the team number one option imo.
Never said deng was the number one option, i said he and gordon led them, which they did.
You acting like Deng is supperstar or even constant all star level player. He is a really good player but a third or fourth option at best on any championship caliber squad.
Word, me saying everything i said is me acting like he is a super star, just a rose apologist looking for excuses. Kevin love would also be a third option on a championship team, bosh is going to be the third option on a championship team, pick between allen,pierce, or garnett about who was the third option. Your point doesn't take away from aything i said, it makes zero sense.
