VIDEO: Rose out here drilling ridiculously deep 3s
Derrick Rose is - as the kids say - feeling it.
The Chicago Bulls' point guard went off in the third quarter Saturday against the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 1, scoring 11 points in nine minutes, drilling three 3-pointers, including two from way behind the 3-point line.
Witness:
The hometown crowd was feeling it, too, serenading Rose with an "MVP!" chant:
So many feelings. What year is it?
Rose exploded after a slow start to the game, and is gaining confidence as he sees more floor time.
Rose’s on-court time in each stint: 5:49, 6:43, 8:59. Earning his time & Thibs letting him play.

Rose leads all scorers with 23 points on 9-of-15 shooting, going 3-of-6 from deep, after three quarters.
We'll give legend Scottie Pippen the final word. He know what's up.
Not only has Rose shown his explosiveness, he's been knocking down 3s in this second half. Look out if he keeps that up.
