Rift between Jimmy Butler and Derrick Rose ????????

[Neophyte Wolfgang]

Then you admit Snell doesn't have an all around better game than Butler?

Butler has more playing time than Snell, but from what I see Snell has a better stroke then Jimmy. Jimmy is better around the glass taking it to the rim

Right now it's not a fair comparison since Butler been around longer and had far more playing time...I don't think it's laughable to debate who could be better at this point

Jimmy need to humble his self if this shit coming out is true though

Snell does have a better stroke nh if he was to actually improve i never thought butler was leaps and bounds better

Bulls GM Gar Forman on Rose and Butler: 'I haven't seen (friction)'

Fret not, Chicago Bulls fans. There's no beef between Derrick Rose and Jimmy Butler.

The two All-Star guards were reportedly at odds with one another during the Bulls' playoff run. As reported by Dan Bernstein of CBS Chicago, Rose's passive showing during the Bulls' final playoff game stemmed from Butler's emergence as their top scorer.

Butler led the Bulls in scoring at 22.9, with Rose trailing at 20.3 per game. However, Rose saw more of the ball and used more possessions, topping Butler in usage percentage at 29.1 to 24.1 percent.

With Butler's status as a restricted free agent this summer, there's some concern over the viability of the pair's future in Chicago. With Rose already tied to a maximum contract, keeping Butler in town could make for awkwardness.

However, Forman put those worries to rest on Friday.

"I haven't seen (friction)," said general manager Gar Forman, as relayed by K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune.

"In all our minds, you've got two guys who can attack, want to run, can play off the dribble and playmake for themselves and others. They haven't had a chance to do it a whole lot because of the injuries. But there's no reason those two shouldn't be able to play at a high level and be one of the best backcourts in the league."

Newly-minted head coach Fred Hoiberg echoed Forman's sentiments.

"I think they complement each other beautifully," Hoiberg said of Rose and Butler. "I'm looking forward to trying to put those guys in great spots where they can continue to be All-Star-caliber players."

With any concerns of chemistry put to rest, the Bulls can now concentrate on re-signing Butler. The 25-year-old is reportedly seeking a short-term contract after coming off a career-year in which he averaged 20 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 1.8 steals this season while shooting 37.8 percent from deep.

Fuck all the bullshit

They better pay Butler

And Rose & Butler better play 2gether next season.

They got potential to be the GOAT duo in the league.

Im not even sure i believe all this drama but i dont care as long as rose stays healthy and we get W's

The Bulls will be fine, they just need a coach that has an offensive imagination. Thibs was a defensive coordinator. Bulls didn't have an offensive scheme or personality despite having top tier talent. A new coach is all they needed and more playing time for Mitotic. They need 3 point shooting and Rose needs shot selection therapy. Someone tell him that he is not 2005 Chauncey Billups with all of those pull up 3's.

I actually think Snell has more upside then Butler. It was just confidence and playing time was needed. When Snell actually got minutes and not worrying about the quick hook he was decent. He can also get to the cup. And he above average defender.

That jimmy rose beef is legit.Joe Cowley be on point wit his sources can't keep sweeping it under the rug he wrote a story about it in the sun times yesterday

He was on point 2 years ago when he said rose would sit out the whole season cuz his brother told him too,reporting noahs knee injury was more serious than the bulls were saying,reporting thibs was gone after this season (he called that in december).He breaks news and has plugged bulls sources.He sayin the beef is jimmy believes he's an alpha and rose thinks this is still 2011 and he's not that player anymore and the bulls are a different team + how rose is babied so much by always missing practices and having his own personal trainer/doc.It's nothing that can't be fixed cuz they played great in the playoffs It's on hoiberg to get them on the same page

 

[Bulletproof Wallets]

A new coach will lighten the atmosphere there. Thibs won a lot of games but it can't be fun playing basketball when the coach is calling a play every trip down the floor. I wish them well because they have the talent to win it all, but nobody wins when they don't have fun.
