re: Rose "sounds" prepared to miss the entire season

I think there was a setback that the Bulls are hiding from everyone (and considering how secretive they've been about this whole thing, it wouldn't surprise me).

I mean Rose played through multiple injuries last season (toe, back spasms, toe again, groin, then tore the ACL), so its not like he hasn't proven he can't play through injury. Maybe he's not completely 100% right now physically, and if he goes out there, he's afraid that something severe like the ACL injury will occur.
