MVP!

That was the chant whenever Derek Rose went to the freethrow line in the 4th. For the first time in 5 years, the Bulls finally defeated the Lakers. They were able to limit Bryant like they usually do. But this time, they didn't give up a big game to Gasol, the guy that usually beats them. Rose ended with a big 29pt/9ast night with 3 three pointers. Korver added 3 more off the bench. Boozer ha da double-double and Deng did a good job on Bryant. The only bad point in the game was the 1st quarter as usual. The Bulls only scored 12 points, a season low for the opening quarter. Yet they managed to cut it to a 9 point deficit by the half and then by the 3rd had a 17 point turn-around.

So that was the 4th game in a row. Rose truly is the MVP right now. He's playing better than James or Wade. Some are saying he's the 2nd best player in franchise history. I'm going to go with 3rd... he's not better than Pippen quite yet.
