If Rose and Deng were healthy, this would not be an issue. No one complains about Noah being in or anyone else besides those two hurt players. These are guys who need to be monitored. Major **** up by Tom.

From Jason Goff of 670 the Score:

Just talked to someone very close to the situation and was told that he's able to put weight on it and "He should be good." Rose set 4 MRI.

Kendall Gill described The look on Thibbs face as being like someone who won the megamillions and had to give it back.

Cooaches in the NBA are usually told about the injuries to players right away and by the look of Thibbs postgame interview, I don't think he was given good news.

Ill keep my hopes up, but my gut tells me its not good.

On a positive note, our team has shown the abiltiy to still be one of the best teams in the NBA Rose or no Rose.
We have 3 more point guards.
We will just have to use them.
That's what they are here for.

I'm still not worried about the first round sixers, however I am already worried about if we can get much further without Rose.

Everyone here better start praying, and go to church tommorow. :pray:
I will light a candle for Rose.
Not much more I can do about it. I wish I could do more. I'm sorry. :shrug:

Thibs said that Rose needed to find his rythm in closing games and that's why he let him in. OK. That is true. No need to crucify the guy. I may just overacted when I saw Rose down but the truth is that Rose wasn't the same and needed some minutes late in the game.

The Bulls beat the best in the NBA without Rose, and with Rose's worst effort ever.

Not easy, or a lock, it's possible the Bulls still win it all, hopefully with Rose, perhaps without him.

The regular season and the playoffs are really two different heads. Can this Bulls team win the first round without Rose? Yes. Can they beat the Celtics without Rose? I'm not as confident, but they could. There is no way in hell they beat the Heat without Rose.

I trust Tom Thibodeau's knowledge of his players and NBA game situations over anyone else.

It sucks Rose was injured, there still are games to play, and the next man has to step up. CJ and JL3 have to be big, and Mike James may get spot minutes.

If i wasnt so sick to my stomach i would laugh at this daiseys and easter bunny, naive post. Congrats on trusting thibs knowledge of his players. Enjoy watching the Heats cakewalk into the finals, thanks to the ultra knowledgeable, play till you bleed coach thibs.

Bulls dont stand a chance to go deep.

X-Ray means nothing...I would rather a break or dislocation then the tear of a ligament

While Thib has a valid point, I dont know, you're up 20 with 5 minutes left, I'd take Rose out and throw CJ out there. Save Rose for another game. I was yelling that at the 5 minutes mark to take out the starters. Can teams come back? Yep. Does it happen all that often? Nope, especially if you have a good D.

I hate you but i hope youre right about the "should be good" part. Even if he should be good, this is just another setback that will ultimately lead to Miami making it to the finals.

One advantage (maybe..he seems to just have a different injury every single game he plays meaningful minutes in..but..) he should have is that the playoff schedule is more spread out. No game until Tuesday..game 3 isnt until Friday.

Rose looked like he was in some pain.

But if there is any good sign, it is that he was able to walk off the court.

I hope all he did was hyper extend his knee.
If so, he will be back by next round.

Hes just not going to be right. He cant be D-Rose again until he can practice without limits and play meaningful minutes without getting hurt.

If he isnt out for the season, i still cant find any optimism in this. Cant win without a effective Rose, not against the Heat and maybe not against the Celtics. All about championships and it just went out the window. fk me, this is the worst.

You are naive if you think the bulls can with without Derrick Rose based on a few regular season games. What about the last game against Miami? Or games against Boston without Rose?

Meanwhile in Miami, the refs continue to fucking help the Heat. Seriously, the phantom first QTR calls and a horseshit F1 on Chandler is just enough to make you realize this league is still rigged.
