Derrick Rose was a bit frustrated with his doubters today after being interviewed about former Head Coach, Tom Thibodeau’s firing.
Derrick is having his best season since the 2011-2012 season and is 2nd in Backcourt voting for this year’s Western Conference All-Star team.

Derrick praised Thibs when Thins signed him last year to Minnesota and believing in him. Derrick was very thankful for everything that Thibs has done for him in his career but you better believe Thibs being gone isn’t going to change Derrick’s play style.
Derrick said, “If you don’t think I’m going to play the same way, kill yourself.”

Well, then. This is going to be met with major backlash, just once Derrick was finally finding his groove again.
