Still waiting for Rose

The Bulls can’t seem to get Derrick Rose on the court. After the tendonitis he’s experienced in his knee, the jammed it in a summer league game Tuesday. All his life he’s been waiting to get to the NBA and now that its here, he can’t play. At least it doesn’t appear to be serious, but the last thing the Bulls need is an injury-prone guard. Hopefully it’s not something with the way he plays that makes him more susceptible to injury. The Bulls want to take advantage of him to create opportunities in transition. Hopefully he’s not playing out of control trying to speed things up because he’s at the NBA level. That is all speculation right now, nothing but a guess. It doesn’t take much to get fans thinking about a guy like Grant Hill. Other than that, which is the major headline right now, Tyrus Thomas has been dominating — against rookies and a bunch of hopeful reserves. It’s good that he showed up, especially since the Bulls had a ton of chemistry problems last year, but it’s clear he can play and the Bulls management would be right to send him home.
