i thought he said he's not coming back until he's 110%? and honestly i doubt he would come back this year unless his team makes it to the nba finals...

Nah son. Noah and Deng are wondering why they are busting their asses while Rose is saying he might not even bother coming back this season.

He'll make the East a lot more fun when he comes back

What about Derrick Rose is there to "dislike greatly"?

People say he's fake humble.

Whatever that means.

Yeah really. I guess he's been fake humble his entire life then. That's quite impressive.

The team isn't going anywhere with him at 80% or 85%

Need him at full capacity

They're not really going anywhere with him at 100% either.

This is great news. Hopefully, DRose can come back at full strength, if he's ready. That would make the playoffs more interesting in the East.

Maybe DRose can do an Adrian Peterson and come back strong from an ACL in the first year?

Some people just don't like certain players, I'm not a fan of Rose at all but he's a good player and I'm excited for him come back

Who knows, perhaps he comes back and hits the ground running. Actually I hope he does - But I always find it funny when after one practice coming back from a major injury [Insert player here] looks '100%', or 'ready to go'. Of course he looks good, he hasn't been playing basketball!

I pretty much agree with this. It's going to be hard as heck for them to get past the eastern conference championship without a top 5 2 guard. Of course, were talking about winning it all or bust.

Listening to Tim Legler last night talk about his ACL and how he got hurt around the same time (late April) and then came back in the middle of February. He said he regrets coming back so soon and it caused unneeded damage because he rushed his comeback.

I think Chicago lets another few weeks go by before they and Rose decide if he is coming back this season or not.

I got my eye on the middle of March vs the Nuggets.
