    Thibodeau then added, "I'm still baffled that he didn't play against Miami."

    The only reason why Miami won their second championship with the big 3 was because DRose didn't play.

    The next season of Game of Thrones will be back before Derrick Rose.

    I was expecting him to announce his retirement.

    He is sitting out until the end of his contract. Why play when you already lock in a cool 100m

    It's going to be very interesting to see Rose play. He seems to have bulked up and apparently has worked relentlessly on his 3pt shot. Could be a more complete player than he was, even if the added bulk slows him down a fraction of a second.

    Too bad there's no one on that team or front office who can help him win it all.

    Glad he took his time to make sure he didn't pull a Gilbert Arenas. He has a long career ahead of him. But he better be back by preseason...he will have been out almost 18 months

    He was already healed in the playoffs. It's not like he's even more healed now lol

    But if he waits another season, he'd be super healed. So healed that it would be impossible that he gets another injury for the rest of his career/life.
