Derrick Rose on working to get back opposed to improving an aspect of his game: “It’s definitely different starting from the beginning all over again…But I look at it as a blessing…it could be worse, this injury could have stopped me from playing basketball…”

gotemcoach:

He didn’t need to befriend every good player in the league or link up with anybody who became a free agent. Rose hasn’t found that he needs a nickname or carefully crafted image.

He’s a doer, a leader, charismatic in a way perhaps only Chicagoans understand — without smiling and clowning and dancing and posing, kind of like a young Dick Butkus. He has represented Chicago in a way even Michael Jordan couldn’t.

Jordan is an adopted son, Rose a native son.
