All the rumors about friction between Derrick Rose and Jimmy Butler apparently are overblown. At least that’s what Nikola Mirotic says.
Mirotic, a 24-year-old forward who came over from Europe and played in a reserve role for the Chicago Bulls last season, told Hoops Hype that the two Bulls stars have a “very good” relationship.
“Actually, I’m surprised that people write about it. Their relationship is very, very good,” Mirotic said of Rose and Butler in an interview with Hoops Hype. “They are the leaders of our team and get along real, real well. You can see there’s very good communication between them in games and practices.
