I am not a fan of the dude, but at this point I have to give him props... If I had to start a team with a PG it would be him. That step back shot last night was clutch... They've had a gew tight games lately and I have watched the end of them on NBA leaguepass, dude is clutch.

I hope he does not get that last piece that he needs because it could be trouble for the heats in the future.

Because that's all that matter when comparing players...

Not at all. Just cp3 is living off taking NO to the 2nd round 4 years ago, while D Rose has been killing it every year since. Did you see what happened when they went head to head earlier this year? Rose dragged him.

If I were starting a team from scratch and had my pick of the two I'd probably take Rose. Paul would be a sentimental favorite because I grew up watching him play, but Rose is just lethal. Interesting this morning that Skip Bayless said he'd take Kyrie Irving over Rose right now. But, you know, it's Skip so whatever.

I see you are from Chicago/midwest so you have to be a bit biased but you can't truly believe Rose is a more complete PG than Paul.

Paul is a better shooter, distributor, and plays better defense. Rose is electric and finisher around the rim. He is a great penetrator as well. But there is nothing wrong with saying CP3 is a more complete PG.

To be honest, I didn't see the game.

But I have seen enough of either of them to know that CP3 is more well rounded. That doesn't take anything away from Rose.

He's a fantastic player. Chris Paul is clearly a more complete point guard, rose a better scorer. Chris should have won the MVP a few years back when Kobe did.

Yeah he just happened to have his best year during Kobe's peak years.

After a game winning shot last night, Rose is the opposite of clutch tonight. He couldn't buy a basket down the stretch during this close game. Believe he didn't score a point in the 4th from the field and missed a FT late to cut it to 3. Had a bad shooting night as well but never considered him a good shooter.

      Bryce QB School Week 12

      By trucpfan · Posted

      This is a wild statement it’s to late to save his season with six games left? That mountain of bad film as a rookie with trash coaching a weak azz line and dismal WRs. Guys that can’t catch on with other teams or guys traded to teams that are subpar at best. We put Bryce in a terrible situation to start his career does that matter to you or you feel he should’ve, as a rookie elevate this dumpster fire. If you’re giving him a fair assessment judge him off the last four games a good o-line decent WRs still not comparable to any other young QB WR room Hou (tank/nico..) Tua (Hill/Waddle) Caleb (Moore/Rome/Allen) let’s see what he can do with a decent structure around him for the next few weeks then let’s revisit how we’re going to grade or assess his performances.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      By KSpan · Posted

      As a bit of counterpoint, if he wanted to continue his professional career then handling it like a mature adult was the only option. Dude had been playing like absolute ass and needed to own it. It's great that he did but it's not like he didn't have a large amount of self interest in doing so. Not picking on Bryce specifically here, as this applies to any player or even anyone struggling early in their career. And he still has a long way to go, but signs are positive.

      Ja'Tavion Sanders avoids serious injury

      By Captroop · Posted

      I agree he could still develop, but I think that could still be developed in practice. Just after a scary injury like that, I'm nervous to see him get reps in a live game situation when the best possible outcome is nothing more than worsening our draft selection. That said, I'm 100% not a doctor, so if he's clear to play, he wants to play, and there's no potential of aggravating this injury (which by all accounts it doesn't seem that is the case for this type of injury) then go for it, I guess.   But you hit the nail on the head. This draft class is really impressive. I can't remember the last time I was so impressed with a rookie that I'd actually prefer shutting him down. His game is so apparent that he doesn't need to prove anything at this point. Can't remember the last time that happened!
