Rose doesn't want to see Del Negro go

[Rios15]

Bulls point guard Derrick Rose knows the situation is out of his control, but he doesn't want to see coach Vinny Del Negro get fired.

After the team was eliminated from the playoffs on Tuesday night Rose said he'd vote "Yes" if he's asked by Chicago's front office whether he wants Del Negro back.

"That's a guy, when we both came in, he let me have my freedom," said Rose. "He still coached me. He let me make my mistakes. We watched film together every day. He taught me a lot of offense and defense, what I'm supposed to do. But the decision is not up to me. It's up to the front office, so I'm just going to let them deal with that."

Good to see Rose step up for his coach. This might help to keep Vinny in Chicago if they havent already decided. Vinny can help Rose develop even more since Rose says he was a big part of that.

Not much he could do with this team.. Only consistent scorer on that team is Rose, Deng would rather shoot mid range jumpers then do anything else, Kirk is just gonna shoot and Noah's offense is based off being under the rim waiting for a pass or off a hustle play.

Rose wants him back because he can do whatever he wants under Vinny.

Exactly, the Bulls weren't even a playoff team until Rose was a Bull.

Actually they were... They just got hit by injuries and that's why they lucked into that pick.
