Derrick Rose suffered a hamstring injury during the Bulls’ Thursday night win over the Toronto Raptors. It’s the second injury of the season for Rose, and after his comments about sitting out games, he’s certainly going to hear the backlash.
Joakim Noah came to the defense of Rose, telling reporters after the game that “everybody needs to chill the f*ck up”.
“Sometimes it’s frustrating, you got injuries, you got tweaks,” Noah told reporters. “Every time something happens to him, people act like it’s the end of the world and that’s f—— so lame to me. Relax. Like, OK, he’s coming back from two crazy surgeries. Obviously we’re being conservative with him. When things aren’t going right, he’s got to listen to his body more than anybody. Everybody needs to chill the f— out.”
