Derrick Rose Summer League Game 1 Bulls vs HeatThe Chicago Bulls opened summer league today against the Miami Heat. The Bulls summer roster includes:

  • Derrick Rose
  • Tyrus Thomas
  • Joakim Noah
  • Arron Gray
  • JamesOn Curry
  • Cedric Simmons
  • Demetris Nichols

There are more on the team, but these are the players most of you will be framiliar with.

Game one was against the Heat, and the Bulls dropped it 94-70. Four Bulls finished in double digits, including Derrick Rose who scored 10 points. Tyrus Thomas also recorded a double-double, scoring 12 points and grabbing 10 boards.

Michael Beasley tore things up for the Heat though. Beasley scored 28 points and grabbed 9 rebounds. Beasley enters an easier role with the Heat than Rose does with the Bulls. Rose is taking over as the leader of a team, while Beasley is becoming another piece to a puzzle a few years removed from a championship title.

The Bulls will play five games in five days, the next game is tomorrow, Tuesday July 8th, against the Indiana Pacers.
