The Bulls raise the curtain on the new season against the rival Cavaliers tonight at the United Center. Cleveland eliminated Chicago in six games in last year's East semifinals. Tonight's game marks the debut of new head coach Fred Hoiberg. Tip-off is at 7:00.
Bulls star Derrick Rose says he's still battling through blurred vision. Rose played for the first time last Friday after suffering a broken left eye socket in the first practice of training camp. Rose is expected to play tonight, but it's unclear how many minutes he will receive.
This evening's Pre-Game Show can be heard on Newstalk 1060 at 6:30.
