The Regime Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 While in Atlanta to play the Lakers, the subject turned to Chicago for Kobe Bryant. "They need a shooter," Bryant told NBA-TV. "Because (Derrick Rose) is not a great shooter himself so you need someone to offset that. I like having basketball players that can create as well so he is not the only one that has to facilitate plays for others. That is what I would look for." Joe Johnson is on the Bulls' radar. "He is an underrated player," Bryant told the station. "I love playing against Joe because he competes. I play against some of these two guards that just roll over. He is not going to do that. He plays both ends of the floor. He is one of those free agents coming into next summer that is flying below the radar but can really change the dynamics of the team." Bryant also complimented Rose's game. "He is at the top of the list but he's still young so he has a lot to improve on, mainly his shooting," Bryant said. "He can handle the ball. He can change his pace very well for a young player, finish at the rim. The biggest key for him is getting that long ball. He has got a pretty good mid-range game as it is. What I like about him is that he is not all speed." http://realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/65700/20100401/kobe_believes_bulls_need_shooter_to_complement_rose/ Kobe and I think the same way.
