So thus ends the tale of Ben Gordon
and the Chicago Bulls. In general he was underappreciated

Kevin Arnovitz of TrueHoop examines how Ben Gordon’s absence will affect Derrick Rose.
Rose stands to improve his numbers — that’s usually what happens with a talent as impressive as Rose. But here’s the rub heading into his second year: It’s going to be much more challenging without Gordon.
