The good news is Rose did
on Monday and coach Tom Thibodeau went to the cliche bank for how the team would handle Rose this season. Back-to-back games aren’t necessarily a factor for Rose and the Bulls.
“What we’re doing is taking it day-by-day and game-by-game,” Thibodeau said. “If a guy needs time, he’ll get time. If he doesn’t, he’ll play. As long as they’re feeling well, they should play. It’s really that simple.”
It’s simple to explain, but Chicago will really need to keep an eye on Rose and his health this season and unfortunately for the Bulls, Rose is a massive part of the team’s offense. They’ll look to get it going against the Magic at home at 8 p.m. Eastern.
