Something very odd is going on with the Chicago Bulls. Yes, the team has gotten off to a 6-3 start, but it seems like every day a new story comes out shedding light on some sort of disorder within the organization. If it's not reports about Derrick Rose and Jimmy Butlerhaving difficulty getting along, it's Rose talking about how excited he is for free agency. If it's not Brian Windhorst talking about the breakup of the Bulls and Rose beginning sooner than you think, it's Rose and his head coach being on two completely different pages, medically speaking.
When Rose fractured his left orbital during training camp, he reported experiencing double vision after having surgery on Sept. 30. He's been wearing a mask in the early goings of the 2015-2016 season, and despite admitting some early discomfort, appears to be adjusting to visual issues fairly well.
Today, Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg gave an update on how Rose was progressing:
That was apparently the first time Rose had heard anything about that diagnosis.
Alrighty then.
Far be it from us to tell a professional sports organization how to run their business, but going to the media with an update on a player's injury without telling said player first seems like a pretty poor move.
