When Rose was drafted, why didn Chicago try and fit him with a starting shooting guard?
They knew Gordon wasn’t a shooting guard, or Salmons, and Kirk is the worst of the three. Keith, Chicago So what’s BG, a center? Of course he’s a shooting guard. Now you can make that argument that he and Rose form too small a backcourt to be effective over the long haul. But Gordon is nothing if he’s not a shooting guard. Salmons is better at small forward than shooting guard, although he’s playing the latter fine with the Bucks and had rebounded a bit with the Bulls following his disastrous start. And the Bulls absolutely have a chance to add a legitimate scoring shooting guard this offseason in free agency. So I’m not sure I follow your question. Why did the Bulls shut Noah down for three weeks? The doctors told them in the beginning that Noah needed six weeks of rest but now, three weeks after trying to play spotty minutes, we are approaching the six-week time frame Noah could have used to become completely healthy. Why not just sit him for six weeks from the get go? Jon, Champaign
