I know this is a ND board but just wanted to see if anyone is a Bulls fan. Sad day to be a Bulls fan. Im a big Bulls fan and it looks like D Rose Career might be over. He might of torn another ligament. Bulls have no luck with PGs. Jay Williams and now D Rose.

Sad day in the basketball world. I hope everything is ok but from someone that tore my knee up 3 times it looked like he tore it again in the other knee.

Purguy,
I have rooted for the Milwaukee Bucks my entire life. The Bulls can lose their best player and still dominate the Bucks. I am old enough to remember when the Bucks were contenders every year, back when Abdul Jabbar was Lew Alcindor and teamed with the big O. That is Oscar Robertson . I still think Robertson and Alcindor were two of the leagues greatest along with Jordan. They don't get the due they more than deserve among the all time greats. I agree it's a sad time for Bulls fans. Even though I root for Marquette and liked Dwayne Wade in college it's hard for me to get behind him and LeBron. To much showboating in their personalities for me. The whole " decision " fiasco sickened me, I know he was just a young kid but I thought he handled it like an imbecile. He could have just left Cleveland and treated them with enough respect to just leave instead of making a total spectacle of himself. My father still roots for them so I hate to root against them but man I just can't root for them. I do respect the Bulls and were hoping they could knock them off. It's a sad day when you know you have to have your team lose to have any chance. Finishing in the middle of just below that is the worst thing that can happen to a struggling organization like Milwaukee. I like what the Pacers have been doing of late, I think I will pull for them.

I am also a Bulls fan. I have not heard the latest news on the injury. hopefully the MRI is negative and it is just something like a MCL Sprain

I don't know man it looked really bad. He knee twisted and gave out. Not a good sign. Another non contact injury for him.

I guess we can hope for the best but it doesn't look good.

i'm a bull fan but admit i'm really just a fair-weather fan. as you can tell from my icon the only team i really live and die with is the sox. nd is a close #2 for me. bears and bulls i like to see them win but when they suck it doesn't really bother me. i didn't even know he hurt himself again.

Career might be over if he did it again. PG with 2 bad knees not good. He might have to become a SG and just learn how to shoot.

He has a torn MCL. He can be out from 8 weeks to 4 months. Wont know until doctors do the Surgery. The good news it isn't a ACL bad news he hurt his other knee and will need surgery and most likely miss this season. Career not be over because of this surgery.

DAMN IT

back for the playoffs for sure at 100 percent. I like Rose but they should see what kind of value than can get for him in a trade

Rose will probably take as much time as possible. Also trading him now would be a terrible idea, his value couldn't be any lower. Just like it would be crazy for the Celtics to trade Rondo right now with him not back from his ACL injury.

Rose is starting to look like a player that has trouble staying healthy.
