The Top Sophomore: Derrick Rose with 37 points, 9 boards, & 6 assists.

[Pooh25]

Another impressive game by the NBA' s top sophomore, Derrick Rose, against the Wizards. Derrick really became aggressive in the second half. Rose could get anywhere & everywhere he desired on the court during the second half and overtimes. Rose finished today with a new career high in shot attempts(33) and scoring(37 points). He just put the Chicago Bulls on his back and led the Bulls to the victory, just like Abraham/Moses saved the Jews from being Egyptian slaves.

 

He finally took Kobe Bryant's advice and it's definitely paying off. It was a good game by the Wizards, but Randy Foye costs them the game. He had so many chances to win, but he would put up a wild shot or turn it over. He wouldn't get the ball to Jamison or Butler who contributed about 59 or something points in total. Foye could have attacked the rim, he has great strength and the Bulls couldn't stop him, but he tries to be a hero.

 

Good game by Luol Deng and Joakim Noah. This was a big win and their fourth consecutive win.

It's pretty much a tossup between him and Westbrook at this point for the best sophomore. He tore it up against us last night though. I agree with your point about Foye. I don't understand why he took two separate difficult fadeaway jumpshots in an attempt to win the game when he could have easily driven and drawn a foul. He's the second best free throw shooter in the league, so that would be 2 free points basically.
