The Chicago Bulls (1-0) have not only lost their starting PG Derrick Rose, but they have also apparently lost a bit of their audience appeal. According to NBA analyst Tom Ziller, the Bulls and the Philadelphia 76ers (0-1) are leaving the ESPN flagship station in favor of the Atlanta Hawks and Boston Celtics:
NBA announces that ATL-BOS Game 3 bumped up to ESPN from NBA TV. PHI-CHI bumped from ESPN to ESPN2.

The Bulls won Game 1 of their series against the 76ers and are preparing for Game 2 on Monday night, but will do so without the reigning NBA MVP as Derrick Rose tore his ACL in the waning minutes of Saturday's game.
