Derrick Rose is critical of Chicago Bulls teammates and Charles Barkley is critical of Rose.
Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls have lost six of eight after getting cracked by LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers last night and the frustration has boiled over. Rose, somewhat shockingly for the first time ever, criticized his teammates for their effort.

Rose thinks the Bulls need to be having more fun. They need to talk more. I can’t remember him ever dropping an F-bomb and then throwing in an ass-kicked for good measure.
Charles Barkley was not impressed. Barkley who has been critical of Rose before took his turn scolding Rose again last night on the NBA on TNT.
Hard to argue with Barkley. The locker room is the place for these type of conversations and I am one of the people confused as to who Rose is speaking of. One thing the Bulls do well is compete. Seems like this is a bad stretch with injured players in a very long NBA season and nothing more.
Barkley does need a reminder for who the Bulls five starters are. Perhaps another game of “who he play for” is in order.
That would be Mike Dunleavy, Sir Charles. He is hurt now, but has been the starter the last two years.
Hope Dunleavy’s feelings weren’t hurt.
