Point Guard: Derrick Rose (2010-11)
There’s really no other choice that the Bulls could having running the point guard position in the all-time starting five, whether it be from a complete body of work or for a single season. D-Rose is the only other non-GOAT MVP award winner in the Bulls franchise history, and his 2010-11 campaign was nothing short of magical.
D-Rose put together a complete run that season that did get the Bulls fairly close to sitting in title contention out of the Eastern Conference. He would follow that up with a solid 2011-12 campaign, that ended way too early when he had his first season-ending knee injury during the 2012 playoff run.
However, during the MVP winning 2010-11 campaign, D-Rose would play in one game shy of each in the regular season (starting in all of those 81 outings). He averaged 25.0 points per game, 7.7 assists, 4.1 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 0.6 blocks, while shooting 44.5 percent from the field and around 33 percent from beyond the arc.
That stat line would get him a sparkling 6.8 box plus/minus rating, 6.7 value over replacement player rating, 23.5 player efficiency rating, more than 13.0 total win shares, and a 55.0 true shooting percentage. Since he only played in 39 regular season games the following season and his playoff run was cut short by that first major knee injury, this is the one that makes the all-time starting five for Rose.
