Derrick is at this point in his career well aware of his value, both on and off the court. Thus, his decision to wait until he's 110% healthy, even if he's close enough to return now, benefits both of those areas seeing as how the Bulls probably couldn't win the title regardless this year. <br /><br />I just hope that Rose returns to the player who always seemed to be so above the materialistic selfish modern athlete nonsense. And I think he will.Dave Johnsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00695499058060781428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3843439290919281635.post-44939460861829833472013-02-18T14:20:40.328-06:002013-02-18T14:20:40.328-06:00I think this will be a defining moment for Derrick...I think this will be a defining moment for Derrick...will he make his decision based on endorsements or show his maturity & confidence in determining when HE is ready to return? ...not when the media or even fans say so. This is also a decision based on how physically able AND mentally prepared he is to accept the choice to return IF he plays again too soon...resulting in a possible career ending injury. Let's hope he uses his brain and heart to make the right choice!Katy Korthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12640358557196293696noreply@blogger.com
