Winning with Rose (Derrick Rose)
At the start of the season, just prior to the Jimmy Butler trade, the Wolves were a garbage 4-9.
Butler was the primary ball handler and scoring option at the time. Since trading Butler to Philly, the Wolves have had a winning record following the emergence of Rose as a main scorer and key offensive playmaker. Despite Jimmy Buckets being a locker-room issue, he was right that most of the team can play soft and unmotivated; with D-Rose stepping in as a leader, this team has been able to be more competitive this season even though they still have their struggles.
