Will Derrick Rose's Injury Lead Chicago Bulls Back to Nate Robinson?

Just when it looked like the Chicago Bulls' point-guard carousel had stopped spinning, disaster struck.

Late Tuesday night, the Bulls announced Derrick Rose had been diagnosed with a medial meniscus tear in his right knee—the exact same injury that limited him to 10 appearances last season. Until Rose undergoes surgery to repair the balky piece of his knee, a timetable for return will remain elusive.

Now, the Bulls need to find floor generals who can pick up the offensive slack.

Kirk Hinrich, Aaron Brooks and E'Twaun Moore comprise the rest of Chicago's depth at point guard, so it could certainly be worse. But among that trio, Brooks is the only player who can be counted upon to create his own shot even semi-regularly.
