Hawks Vs. Bulls: Derrick Rose Game-Time Decision For Monday's Game

Chicago Bulls guard Derrick Rose is a game-time decision for Monday's game against the Hawks after taking part in a full practice on Sunday.

Rose is still a game time decision for tomorrow. Thibs said he took more contact in practice today.

Rose took part in a physical practice Sunday and if he shows no ill effects on Monday may be cleared to return to the Bulls lineup.

"He defended pick and rolls, he went one-on-one, he defended the post, played in the post, defended catch-and-shoot," Thibodeau said. "He did a lot today. We'll see how he is tomorrow. It was the next step for us."

Obviously Atlanta's chances likely improve if Rose is unable to play. Even if he does return he could be in position to have his minutes scaled back. Whether Rose plays or not, the Hawks need Jeff Teague to have a positive impact on the game and to find some consistency.
