Earlier today Derrick Rose's brother criticized the Bulls player movements, or lack thereof, and said that may play a part in whether his brother returns this season from his knee injury. Reggie Rose is also the player's manager and specifically said the comments were solely his opinion and had nothing to do with the Bulls point guard's beliefs.

"What have you pieced together? Have you made any moves? Have you made any trades to get better? You know all roads to the championship lead through Miami," Reggie Rose said. "What pieces have you put together for the physical playoffs?

"Joakim Noah is a great player. Luol Deng is a great player. But you need more than that. You have to put together pieces to your main piece. The players can only do so much. It's up to the organization to make them better. It's frustrating to see my brother play his heart and soul out for the team and them not put anything around him."

Derrick Rose later issued a statement saying that he believed the organization's goals were the same as his.

“I have always felt that the Bulls organization’s goals have been the same as mine and that is to bring another championship to this city.”
