Derrick Rose and Taj Gibson going to rookie / sophomore game

Per Bulls.com:

Well nothing too surprising or exciting about that except I have to say, when the season started no one was likely predicting that Taj Gibson would be on the team. 

This game looks like it will be an absolute route for the sophomores which have vastly more talent than the freshmen.

I suppose the two aren't related in any way, but my first thought was if Rose is going to this game he's not going to the all-star game.   Then I thought, well of course they're not going to vote him off the sophomore team even if he's going to the all-star game.

So I suppose it's not related, it just made me feel queasy for a moment there.

Complete rosters:
Sophomores:
Derrick Rose, Michael Beasley, Eric Gordon, Kevin Love, Brook Lopez, Danilo Gallinari, Russell Westbrook, Marc Gasol, O.J. Mayo

Freshmen
Tyreke Evans, Omri Casspi, Taj Gibson, Jonas Jerebko, Stephen Curry, Brandon Jennings, Jonny Flynn, James Harden, DeJuan Blair

  • That is going to be a fun game to watch.

    Rose and Westbrook vs. Jennings and Evans...WOW!!!

    I can't wait for that battle.

  • oh my that rookie team is putrid.

  • my first thought was look at the immense drop off of talent! it's rather substantive. evans and rose are both good players, but taj against beasely and love? Jerebko? who the eff is jerebko kidding? he's not even a starting quality player. Also i think he might be the largest player on the team. Blair - 6-7, taj 6-9. wow. is all i can say.

  • No Demar DeRozan lol Thats crazy....Jerebko made it over him? Terrible

  • Wow. Freshman are too small. There is no Durant to save them this time. Jennings will have to score 60 for this team to win.
