It's the fear that all Chicago Bulls fans have at the moment come to bare, as Derrick Rose is now officially out for the rest of the 2013-14 NBA season.

The meniscus tear Rose suffered in his right knee after coming back from his ACL tear in the left knee last season occurred on Friday in the Bulls' loss to the in-form Blazers. It is a devastating blow for him after all that transpired last season and how this happened on his supposedly good knee.

Outside of an 6-11 3-point shooting night in giving the Pacers their only loss of the season, Rose was still primarily the same player he was before the knee issues. Still, the Bulls have been bad offensively again, where Luol Deng, Carlos Boozer, and Joakim Noah aren't consistent star men who can carry a team by themselves.

With how the Pacers have started along with a certain team in Miami, they were never going to beat both of those teams with him.

It's a two-year, $48 million deal, but with enough space to allow the Lakers to sign Carmelo Anthony or another prominent player to go along with him and Gasol.

And in Kobe style, he tweeted it out:
