@ dirtybird2020 you’re a moron! I know your fat a%% doesn’t get off your couch very much so be careful of how and where you walk because you’ll tear your ACL before Wade does you under achieving slouch!

The thing that stood out to me in this article:
“With the Bulls up 12 and 1:09 left in the game, Derrick Rose was driving to the basket ….”
As excellent a head coach Thibs has shown thus far; he has never known how to manage his largest commodity – players. He has time & time again played players who are coming back from injury excessive minutes opposed to monitoring their minutes & reacclimate them back to normal minutes. Look throughout this season for further proof.

Under no circumstance should Rose who has struggled with injury the entire season should be playing much less driving to the basket “With the Bulls up 12 and 1:09 left in the game …”

I’m sorry its inexcusable & unacceptable and its time Bull’s management/ownership stepped up and put a stop to this foolish practice.

Pretty sure I read a rant about Adidas shoes being the most dangerous in the NBA as far as causing injures a few weeks ago. Both Rose and Shumpert tonight in Adidas. Perhaps there is something to it.

Man, this sucks. Though I’m a LAKERS fan, D. Rose is my favorite player not wearing the Purple & Gold. My condolences to Rose and all the Bulls fans.

This just sucks. I am a Wolves fan and was devastated when Rubio went down. He isn’t even close to the same level as D-Rose. I blame this stupid lockout shortened season. It is not fair to the players who all have been getting injured and not fair to the fans. We want to see the premiere players play for a title. I just hate this.

I know Bulls fans are worried about the 2012 play-offs with the Rose injury but their real concern should be Derrick’s future in the NBA. This ACL tear is tough to come back from and Rose’s style of play puts tremendous stress on his whole body. I hope he can make it back for next year and he can adopt his style of play so that he’s not always pushing his body at 125%.

However all the BS aimed at Thibs is dead wrong. Rose needed the time to get his game timing back and this could have happened at anytime give his playing style. If you watched the game he still was not in his normal flow during the 1st quarter.

I want Thibodeau fired. He cost us Derrick Rose. He’s done this countless times this season keeping players on the court for extensive minutes. What a horrible day for Bulls fans.

Sixers might win this series or not but who cares now.

Yes Derrick Rose will need to change his game because I just don’t see him being the same player ever again regardless. Now on to a different matter and more concerning: A coach should never have his top player on the floor with 2 minutes left, I don’t care if the Sixers had cut the lead to single digits. The rest of the team should be able to close the deal. If they can’t then they are not worthy of a title. Unfortunately this is probably not going to be the last time coach Thibodeau pulls this stunt. This is the reason why he should be fired after the season. I think this guy is too stubborn to change. He wants to pad his record to secure a big contract extension.

Dude, he’s had one injury plagued season. One.

Do you know who else had one injury plagued season and came out of it just fine? Dwyane Wade.

Rose will be ok next year once he’s rehabbed his knee when he isn’t playing in a compressed 66 game season.

This is terrible news. I’m a Heat fan and I really wanted to see Heat VS Bulls part 2 in an ECF (assuming that the Heat get there again). That matchup is so good.

Now we’re all going to be denied that great series. Chicago will still be tough for us if they make it past Boston, but scoring is just going to be such a struggle without Rose.

Damn shame.

Philly doesn’t have D Rose either. They’re not grabbing anyone by the horns.

Rose is out, Howard is out… now if Dirk, Kobe, Chris Paul and Kevin Durant get hurt then maybe Lebron will finally get a ring.

Penny Hardaway 2.0
Fantastic early career to be ravaged by injuries, its sad because Rose is a good dude.
Get rid of those lightweight shoes man, those are bad for your ankles, feet, knees and hips. Need more cushion in those Adidas.
