| News: Coach Tom Thibodeau said Rose (knee) will "be ready to go next year," the Chicago Tribune reports. | Impact: Despite the ongoing speculation of his status throughout the year, Rose ended up sitting out all of the 2012-13 season, as he ultimately lacked full confidence in his surgically repaired left knee. A full offseason and slate of preseason games should help Rose regain his mojo for next season.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Rose (knee) will not suit up for Wednesday's Game 5 at Miami, the Chicago Tribune reports. | Impact: As expected, Rose will not make an appearance in the 2012-13 season and postseason just more than a year removed from surgery to repair a torn left ACL. He can now focus on regaining confidence in the knee and stabilizing his mindset heading into next season.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: The Chicago Bulls officially ruled out Rose for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals on Monday. | Impact: Rose has been sidelined all season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during the playoffs last year.(STATS, 5:41pm) |

| News: Rose won't play in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals against Miami on Friday. | Impact: Coach Tom Thibodeau silenced the rumors that Rose could return Friday at the team's morning shootaround.(STATS, 12:57pm) |

| News: Rose's (knee) status hasn't changed, likely keeping him out for Friday's Game 3, ESPN Chicago reports. | Impact: Despite a report earlier in the week suggesting Rose could make his long-awaited return for Game 3, coach Tom Thibodeau has quashed such talk entirely. Given all the double-talk that has taken place with Rose this season, it appears we'll simply have to believe it when we see it before truly feeling comfortable that he'll be playing.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Rose (knee) might dress for Friday's Game 3, HoopsWorld reports. | Impact: No other major news outlet has reported anything about this story, yet. It's suggested that Rose would suit up to appease the Bulls' home crowd in Game 3, and this might simply be a clever motivational tactic like the one the Warriors used in bringing back David Lee (hip) in Game 6 of their series against the Nuggets. Ultimately, Rose's return seems unlikely.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Rose (knee) will remain out of the lineup for Monday's Game 1 at Miami, ESPN Chicago reports. | Impact: The song remains the same for Rose, as it has for seemingly months. He himself deems a potential return to the court up in the air, but owners should not count on his presence within the Bulls' guard rotation during the Eastern Conference semifinals, even with current starting point guard Kirk Hinrich dealing with an ailing calf.(RotoWire, ) |
