    Rose = T-Mac

    Both players were finesse finishers. 4th year injuries start popping up

    Hopefully, it's not as bad as it looks. The guy hasn't been able to catch a break this year in regards to health. They can still beat Philly without him.

    Yep.

    BREAKING: Derrick Rose has a torn ACL/MCL. Will miss the remainder of the playoffs (AP). WOW!

    Whenever a guy's leg/knee buckles like that without contact you can pretty much count on an ACL/ MCL injury.

    I really like Rose hate to see it happen to him.

    Scary how 2 similar injuries happen in the first 2 games of the playoffs. Makes you wonder who is going down next.

    False -- fake tweets that've since been pulled from the NBC Miami twitter account.


    Truth -- heard from a friend that works at Rush Hospital here in Chicago (literally less than a mile south of the United Center) that Rose was brought in a few minutes ago by his brother for an MRI.

    Even if the news is fake I still think it will turn out this way, Cheetah is right with his statement. That looked really serious by his reaction and the leg movement.

    I'm praying for a sprain -- his ability to plant and walk off the court, albeit with support, was a better indication for me then if they would've brought out a wheelchair and rolled him out.

    If they used a wheelchair he probably would've been back by the end of the game.

    I think Chicago can still win this series even without Rose. They may even make it to the conference finals. They just don't have enough to beat Miami. Then again I didn't think they could beat Miami even with Rose.

    Chicago can still win this series if they maximise Boozer and Hamilton.
