Blogging Black.Com Shouts Derrick Rose is the Man!

Blogging Black.Com Shouts Derrick Rose is the Man! The Chicago Bulls select Derrick Rose No. 1 in the 2008 NBA Draft, a 6-3, 190-pound point guard out of the University of Memphis.

Rose posted averages of 14.9 points, 4.7 assists and 4.5 rebounds per game as a freshman and led Memphis to the NCAA National Championship game. He appeared in all 40 games for the Tigers, who went 38-2 and set an NCAA men’s basketball record for wins in a season.

“In this league, point guards are really hard to find,” Bulls EVP of Basketball Operations John Paxson said after making the pick. “He’s got a strength about him that most guards don’t have in this league at that position.

He’s got a great burst and he’s very fast with the ball. I think he’s going to make other players better, and I think he’ll give us some leadership abilities as he goes on that we really need. For us, it was the right pick.”

The Memphis Tigers are #1!

The Memphis Tigers are #1 in College Basketball! Why are they so hated? Do these great young men deserve the comments that they receive from many sports announcers? One announcer stated in one of Memphis’ early games, that these young men only play for agents and posses, did these players deserve this? Could the fact that the Memphis Tigers don’t have one white player, draw the ire of these announcers who are mostly white? Why aren’t the Tiger Players described as heady, basketball-savvy, and fundamentally sound?
