Who will rise to the occasion and wear the green shorts and pantyhose?

To reach and win the NBA Finals, a team can't just have one guy. Michael Jordan was title-less until Scottie Pippen arrived. Is it plausible to think the Bulls can win a championship with Derrick Rose as Superman? I don't see it happening unless one of these guys comes up HUGE!

Who do you think is most critical to the Bulls' success? Luol Deng? Carlos Boozer? Kyle Korver? Keith Bogans?

Mark Schanowski on Comcast just said Bogans is the X-factor. When he scores 6 or more points, the Bulls have almost a perfect record. Interesting.

Or does it matter one way or the other? Do the Bulls not have what it takes - or does Derrick drive the bus and the Bulls win it all?

I agree, the Bulls will fall short of a title if Rose is asked to carry the same load he has so far in the playoffs. His ankle injury could turn out to be a blessing in disguise if it creates a sense of urgency among his teammates to elevate their game. Boozer is the most critical one. His ability to generate offense in the post is like getting the ground game going in football. It opens the court in general and particulary for Deng.

Are you sure you're not paid to write this stuff, Cedman?
