After pouring in 20 first half points against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Derrick Rose picked up right where he left off by scoring a quick seven points in the opening minutes of the third quarter. Among them were two finishes through and around fellow All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving.
This one is bad enough. What’s a poor little Irving to do under such duress?
But it only got worse for Kyrie a couple possessions later. Don’t turn your back to the ball, Youngblood!
Rose hasn’t been so effective or fun to watch in three years. Here’s hoping it translates to the regular season.
