Derrick Rose for MVP

This is going to be a fabulous NBA playoffs to watch. If Derrick Rose is voted NBA MVP for the regular season, I wonder how far Rose can carry the Chicago Bulls. He is a young man and Chicago Bulls head coach Tom Thibodeau is a dictatorial, one-man wrecking crew. With Rose and Thibodeau, this is a unique partnership. Their personalities are introverted, hard working, and smart. If I see the Bulls anywhere down the road, the Miami Heat are a more talented bunch of players especially when you have a team that has Dwyane Wade, Lebron James, and Chris Bosh. The Heat are more talented than Chicago are, and I think they are in for a long run if the Bulls can expect to beat either Miami or the Boston Celtics for a longer playoff run. I definitely think Derrick Rose deserves the MVP award. He really has become the Bulls' captain and leader of the locker room with his inspired play. Joakim Noah is the Bulls' hustle, much like Dennis Rodman with his rebounds and defensive ability. I find the Bulls to be much deserving of winning the NBA title this year, but no one can take away Kobe Bryant's hunger for his sixth NBA title. With running big men like Carlos Boozer and Noah, Rose has two big men he can pass the ball to. Keith Bogans is Chicago's best perimeter defender, which is why he is Chicago's starting shooting guard. I see Kyle Korver and Ronnie Brewer coming off the bench and spelling Bogans for either the 2-guard or the small forward where Luol Deng is starting. Omer Asik is a great backup center. His ability to play defense and score on the offensive end makes Asik's skills set valuable to have. With two more pivot men in Taj Gibson and Kurt Thomas, the Bulls have big men who are able to run, rebound, score, and defend. Derrick Rose is getting a lot of time on the court, because he is Chicago's Most Valuable Player. Rose leads the team in scoring and assists with 24.8 and 7.8 respectively. His backup, C.J. Watson gets playing time spelling for D-Rose, but he is not getting more playing time ahead of the eventual-MVP.
