Derrick Rose is amazing.

Where would you guys rank him in terms of point guards in the league?   Is he top 5?  IHe currently is averaging 25 ppg, 8 assist, and 4 rebounds shooting 47% from the field. 

Not that everyone doesn't already know what I stated in the title but I was at the Laker / Bulls game last night and it is amazing to see him in person.  His ability to get to the rim and move his body to wrap himself around multiple defenders into tight spots to get the ball on the glass is top notch.     Here is a shot from my seat last night, 4 rows up.  http://tinypic.com/r/jkgg41/7

Already top 5 for me.

Chicagos offense is not that good, leaving Rose with having to self create often.  Amazing some of his moves/speed.
Watching him and a revamped Parker a week ago was great.  They both have afterburners for speed.

Yeah he is top 5 for me as well.  Only Deron Williams and Chris Paul rank higher.  I think he is on par with Rondo.

Like you said, the offense is pretty poor for the most part.  He literally has to make a play 90% of the trips up the floor for them to score.  Either a jumper, driving to the lane to score or kick, or by making a nice pass. 

As for his speed, it is very impressive on TV.  When you are 5 feet from him and seeing him get end to end, it is a whole 'nother level.  Put it this way, he was so impressive last night Laker fans were cheering for him when he would score.

And Rose can close.

Nice finish vs Dallas tonight. 
Wow!

Chicago is gonna walk to the Division also, so home court for at least R1.

Hope this doesn't slow him down for long:

Derrick Rose has stomach ulcers.
