Interesting tidbit: Derrick Rose upset at the Indiana Pacers

by lovinglosangeles on Jan 27, 2012 2:25 PM PST

There is no question that Derrick Rose is a competitive, talented and extraordinary basketball player. But making statements like this?

"I will never forget how they celebrated just from winning this game. I can’t wait to play them again."

He is pissed off that the Pacers celebrated after the win? What? Other teams do not have a right to celebrate? Isn't that a bit immature? It might have been one game but hey, it is the Pacers' prerogative.

Isn’t this exactly what some of us were saying about the Lakers celebrating like they won a championship by beating us?

the only difference being that Lakers fans have been explicit about chastising Clippers fan for celebrating in the previous game...

witnessing the other team celebrate....

Comes with the territory when you lose. You should have won.

I myself wanted to punch Ricky Rubio in the face when he made that game tying 3 and started jumping up and down twirling like a little girl. But, hey, we should have stopped him.

….I also wanted to kick Jason Terry in the knee for being smug about his game leading three, but Chauncey saved me the grief.

terry is inufferable but i dont mind celebrating when you hit a big shot

what i dont like is how terry does his dumbass jet thing after he hits an open layup in the second quarter.

terry is not the real “jet”, he’s an imposter.

Pacer/Bulls would be a great rivalry to have... the midwest deserves it

It is already happening based upon close geographic location

and the hard fought playoffs last year. They also went at it during the Jordan/Phil Jackson era vs the Pacers and Reggie Miller in his prime.

I see nothing wrong with his statement.

That comes with the territory of being a great competitor. He might come off childish, but his message is clear. Just like how CP3 started sh*t with Pau at the end of the Lakers game…
