Is Derrick Rose being held down by Melo?
Rose is showing flashes of brilliancy this season and while his stats are average at best they don't tell the whole story.
Is it possible Melos style of play contributes to Rose taking more of a back seat role? Will Rose as a first option ala Bulls, play or come close to the level he did pre ACL injury?

Not to mentioned he seems to have recovered his speed and quickness and now seems to be on the path to stay healthy this season from any major setbacks.

Yeah, Melo tells Rose before each game to not give a **** about defense.

Re: Is Derrick Rose being held down by Melo?
This is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever read. Watch him play. Dude has blinders on, is abysmal defensively and doesn't know how to run a basic PnR
I hope some dumb GM believes this and gives us something that actually matters for him
