Bulls' Rose calls Scalabrine 'a coach on the floor' http://ppt.cc/6,vc By K.C. Johnson There's this shortsighted perception of Brian Scalabrine as some mascot, the non-athletic guy at the end of the bench who gets his name chanted at the end of blowouts. That perception, say those who play with Scalabrine, is wrong. "He's a coach on the floor," Derrick Rose said. "When we don't know what to run, Scal is helping me and the other point guards, telling me where to go. He makes my job a lot easier." There have been sporadic questions lately from reporters asking if Scalabrine , who signed a non-guaranteed contract to come to Bulls camp, will make the final roster. Trust this: Scalabrine made the team the day he signed the deal. Tom Thibodeau has a comfort level with Scalabrine from their three seasons together in Boston. Thibodeau values practice, and Scalabrine is known universally around the league as a great practice player. And Thibodeau also knows Scalabrine can go a week without playing and still step in and contribute. Thibodeau didn't need Scalabrine's 6-for-7 shooting against the Raptors on Wednesday night to know that. "He's a solid veteran," Thibodeau said. "He gives you veteran leadership. He's been in a lot of situations. We were short-handed, and that's why I like him. He stays ready to play. You put him out there and he can guard people. His team defense is very good. "And offensively, he's smart. He keeps the ball moving. He knows where the matchups are. He knows who's hot. He knows how the play is being defended. You can count on him." Just like you can count on Scalabrine making the team. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 59.120.141.176
