Derrick Rose

I think Derrick Rose can be warrior. He must be progressing and recovering. From time to time, he will rejoin the team. He is upbeat to play basketball. I cannot wait to see him again playing again.

Rose's play isn't like what he was last year when he gets the MVP. He's obviously affected with his injury. Though we are seeing him very limited minutes now and not even played I think around half of the season games. The rest is beneficial to Bulls come playoff time. We just hope, that when he is needed the most, he will be there for the team.

Bigmoney, I certainly agree with you, Rose definitely still feels sore and pain in his foot and ankle and that is why his playing has not being up to par with the drive for the top position in their conference, which is much needed in other for them to meet a lower team in the play-offs. Although there are so good players on that team who could play very well but can't because the Bulls team have centred their game style around Derrick Rose, this now makes it difficult for them to step up their game in his absence. Players like Noah and the guard that stepped up and gave Bulls a convincing home win against the Heat should be giving more playing time so as to enable them contribute more to the team in Rose absence, if they are going to the conference finals.
