Tim Thibodeu, Bulls coach said Rose’s injury is fine and he can play for the team.

He said, “He is going to take a lot of hits. He’s got to get through all that stuff. He has shown how tough he is. That’s all part of the game. It’s a tough, physical game. He’s got the ball a majority of time. That’s just the way it is.”
