Derrick Rose Sprains Ankle in Bulls’ Loss

The MVP finished the game after he came up hobbling after going for a layup in the second quarter. But the Bulls couldn’t complete the sweep, losing to the Pacers 89-84. From The Chicago Tribune: “DRose said he had his sprained left ankle X-rayed and it’s nothing more than a sprain. Walked gingerly leaving podium.”

    They should take his MVP away.

  • Joblo

    yeah izzo that makes sense…he needs to switch back to the adizero 1.5s cuz I don’t think those crazy lights give enough support

    As a Lakers fan, I want LeBron to win the regular season MVP.

    I hope Derrick is ok, I want to see the Bulls smack the Magic. I was rooting for the Bulls to make a comeback. If they did, it would have probably been the most competitive sweep in the playoffs in the last 20 years. The Pacers are putting up a good fight, so I guess it will be the most competitive 5-game series in the last 20 years.

    dont know what’s more used in the playoffs, the word ginger/gingerly or kevin mchale always reminding us that the blazers lead the league in alley oops

  • 2KInsider

    @everything- I think the word “soft” is used the most.

    indeed, after last night BRoy showed he should get the mvp.
