It's been a long while since the Chicago Bulls were a legitimate NBA championship contender. Even though they've made the playoffs, they don't seem to have what it takes to go the distance.
That wasn't the case when Derrick Rose was in town. For the first time since the Michael Jordan era, the Bulls had an icon and a player who could make them dream of a championship again.
That's why, when asked whether he deserves a statue now that he's retired, his former teammate Joakim Noah couldn't agree more:
"100%," Noah said on "Run It Back," adding, "As great as Pooh (Rose) was as a player, to me, I think he's an even better human. You know, the most humble superstar out there, and just the way he represented Chicago every time he stepped out there was unreal."
