The Bulls are sometimes too unselfish on offense, which results in players passing up open shot opportunities.

“The biggest thing with this team is we just have to learn to shoot open shots,” Derrick Rose said. “We play too unselfish sometimes. We end up passing up good shots for bad shots.”

Rose is inherently one of the NBA's most unselfish superstars.

“We talk about that all the time,” Carlos Boozer said. “The great thing about our team is we have so many good players that can create open shots for everybody else. We just have to be one of those teams that takes them. Sometimes if you don’t take it, you end up taking a tougher shot because you gave up the easy shot thinking someone else has a better shot. As a team, we have to do a better job of getting open and shooting the ball.”

“You can’t pass up an open shot,” Tom Thibodeau said. “Oftentimes if you do, what you end up with is a contested shot after that. If somebody’s open, we want them to shoot. But, in general, I like our ball movement and willingness to share the ball and hit the open man.”
