No Thorn on this Rose

In a spectacular performance, Bulls rookie Derrick Rose scored 36 points in leading Chicago to a 105-103 overtime victory over Boston in Game 1 of their 1st round NBA playoff series.

Rose's 36 points tied the record for the highest playoff scoring debut in NBA history. He also added 11 assists before fouling out in overtime.

You knew this game would spark conversation in the Twitterverse, and basketball fans in Chicago are revved up about their Rose:
