Okay, just kidding on the freaking out part (Bulls fans, you can stop dry heaving now). However, Derrick Rose is a game time decision due to soreness in his neck, which, last time we checked, is very far away from his surgically repaired knee.
Rose did not go through shootaround. He is a game time decision. Thibs says it’s not his knee.

Rose says he has neck soreness. ‘I should be fine.’ Hopeful to play tonight.

He isn’t sure when injury happened. He said he didn’t feel anything until after Tuesday’s game in Miami.

Rose: “For sure I’m going to play.”

Rose is confident he will be able to get his neck loose prior to tonight’s game. He knows there will be plenty of energy in the building.
