Derrick Rose:"Why can't i be MVP?"

[New York Knicks]

Because he isn't close to that caliber ... thats why.

People said that about Kevin Durant before this season. In fact, people that predicted that the Thunder would be a playoff team this year were ridiculed during the off-season.

the only intelligent post thus far

25.4 ppg 4.1 rpg 8.2 apg 46.4% 31.5% 3ptFGs 85% FTs, Bulls 53-29, 4th in EC

maybe not MVP this season but if he continues to improve what pathetic old children can type on a keyboard in they mama home to say they cannot?

I see something more like 18/4/7.5/1

I don't think Rose can be because he's an overrated shoot first PG that people make excuses for on a regular basis.

But there's nothing wrong with what he said. Everyone should think "why not" and work towards their goals.

No one needs to make any excuses for Derrick Rose. Being the rookie of the year and second year all-star says he's doing just fine so far.

Because your team won't have enough wins to top out the Heat/Orlando/lakers/Celtics/Thunder

Lol @ Thunder having more wins than Bulls this year.

**** you.

[AirTupac]

Even Rose is overrating himself. But for real, I hope he does become one of the best.

[step_back]

The same was said about Nash just before he got his first well deserved MVP.

Rose has a good chance at being an MVP just like any other rising star has.

fans are so delusional it is simply unreal. It is a good thing they have to actual perform, just because you say it doesn't mean it will happen.

I don't know what is more ludacris Rose averaging 25+ ppg while dishing 8 assists or Rose shooting over 30 % 3pt or Rose shooting 85% FT this entire year. It is like damned if you damned if you don't or Bulls win 53 games.

I'm a Bulls fan, and I believe the Thunder will end up with more wins. Don't underestimate chemistry and they have one of the top 5 players in the league.

The irony, it burns!

[VishaltotheG]

Hmmm, which one doesn't belong?

Celtics, though they will be good after the regular season

[Bigsmoke]

that would be pretty sweet.

[puppychili]

Rose ain't winning MVP this year but I do admire his confidence

[liquidrage]

Lol @ Thunder having more wins than Bulls this year.

**** you.

So your team won 41 games in a weak East that has improved, and really all you added was Boozer who is no help to winning games and hated by every team he played for with good reason, and now you're a 50+ win team?

Thunder are easily a better team then the Bulls and the West is getting easier not harder right now.

Only in Chicago can a loser like Boozer turn a crap team into title contenders. I take that back, it happens in NYC too.

Good luck making up those 9 games. I really love that Watson Gibson Korver Johnson depth you have there Talk about a crap bench. It's not like your starting 5 is amazing or anything to make up for it.

Rose knows his not worthy of an MVP yet its because the people are throwing the idea up in the air and so hes just questioning it, this was discussed in an interview where fans shouted that he be an mvp canidate but hes like "nuh dont listen to them" lol he's just creating buzz, which in turn is good for us fans =]
