Anyone concerned about Rose?

I had to pick him in the first round because he fell to me in the 7th, though I knew he wouldn't come close to replicating last season. His usage and shots seem to be down significantly. It's apparent he's not dominating the ball like he did last season, and playing more team ball. Though that is not translating into assists.

I expect his stats to be 20/7/3

and this is why you play in turnover leagues. even if what you say is true, he's gonna make up for it in 3-pointers and/or FG% and fewer TOs.

Bulls fan here.

Don't be worried. Rose has been trying too hard to set-up his teammates these first two games, Rip especially. He said yesterday that he's going to get back to attacking. I don't know if he'll justify a higher draft position than say, Kevin Love, but you'll feel good if you took him in the 5-7 range.

^... So if I took him at 3.....

I went with DRose because the CP3 situation hadnt played out yet and i thought the distraction would affect his game....

Yeah if you took him before CP3 you'll probably be salty.
