LeBron, LeBron, Rose, LeBron and LeBron – that’s how the MVP trophy has gone in the last five seasons. Derrick Rose has been the only guy to displace ‘The King’ from his throne. Could he do it again this time? Chicago played pretty well without Rose last season and now with Rose they are a serious contender to Miami’s supremacy. Tom Thibodeau’s Bulls should focus on remaining injury free and then challenge in the playoffs. Luol Deng, Carlos Boozer and the enigmatic Joakim Noah provide a strong enough support cast for Rose to go about doing what he does best – dominate games. Rose is a point guard who gets assists and racks up points. At his best, he is virtually unplayable. Rose is no Michael Jordan but he is the best Bulls player Chicago has seen since MJ.
