is IS the FO's job to bring guys in... but it wouldn't hurt Rose if he made a call to some guys and showed them he wants them here.

Yet if Rose asked for help the reaction would "ger what a pussy, can't win he iz a loser."

I'm OK with Rose not asking for help. That's not his job.

Players can't win in Chicago with their actions.

Come on Rose, you gotta want someone besides Bogans starting next to you.

That wouldn't be the reaction.

A lot of guys do that around the league.. even Kobe does it and no one calls him a pussy for it

Don't tell me the media in Chicago wouldn't try to spin it that way.

I don't expect Rose to publicly ask for help, it's just not his call.

I'm happy he takes responsibility on himself and doesn't blame teammates for the team's shortcomings.

I'm 99% sure the media wouldn't spin it that way. Rose is loved in Chicago... why would the CHI media make him look bad for trying to help the team?

Because that's what the media does in Chicago. Always looking for a story that isn't there. Trying to spin a story as well.

I like Derrick for how he acts now.

Certainly I wouldn't be affected by what he does, but media spin and perception does affect players.

I'm with nwfisch on this on. If Rose was openly recruiting players, the media will spin it saying, "Oh finally Rose admits that he can't win with these guys and he needs some help". That can make the other guys wonder if he letting the media get to him.

Ken Berger: Sources say there's mutual interest between the Bulls and free-agent forward Caron Butler. But Chicago hasn't ruled out also making a push for restricted free agent Marco Belinelli,

Interesting. Kind like Korver, but more defense...and possibly more expensive.
