Derrick Rose thinks he'll play this season, not sure when

Bulls point guard Derrick Rose said there is a "good chance" he'll be back this season, but he wouldn't say it with any certainty.

"I think so, that's the plan," Rose said. "Whenever I feel right, that's when I'm going to step back."

Rose spoke to reporters for the first time since his knee surgery Feb. 27. He said he's "killing every workout" right now but refused to give a firm commitment to making it back within the Bulls' previously announced four- to six-week estimate, despite several attempts by reporters.
