This is a great upgrade to the Bulls resume to bring in another All Star level player like: Chris Bosh or David Lee*

VDN saved his own job by stressing defense. As long as the Bulls continue to play tough team defense they will have a chance to win. Defense was the backbone of the double three-peat even with Michael. Defense is the cornerstone of a championship team especially in basketball.

I’m on the same page as thirdsaint- whats up with the time when you submit a comment?

Anyway, to answer the question about the #1 picks making the All-Star team- it seems to me that it is either hit or miss (shoot, when we had Joe Smith last year, we had two former #1 picks on the roster). Take a look at it- you have LeBron James and Dwight Howard, guys who are a given to make the team each year. Then there’s the guys who get injured and don’t make it- Greg Oden and Blake Griffin. Then there’s the duds- players that never live up to their hype/potential, much less become All-Stars- Joe Smith, Michael Olowokandi, Kwame Brown, Andrea Bargnani.

This lists ‘em all:

Could Derrick Rose Allstar spot be enough motivation for his team to win a championship this year? Only time will tell!

Very proud of Rose. He has saved VDN job’s for this season and has the Bulls poised to be the 5th seed in the East. Well deserved!

First of many to come for DRose. All Star game can be a big boost to a team as well. Remember when Craig Hodges dominated the 3 point contest in 1991? Many players on the bulls that year felt it gave the team a lot of confidence and momentum heading into the second half of the season

I’d be interested to know how long it took other former #1 picks to become an all star. Mr. McHale please begin whipping your research team….of monkeys!
