The mentality of an athlete is to always rush back from an injury, feeling as if they’re fully recovered before they actually are. They can’t help themselves in that regard.

Everybody has their own opinions,’ Rose said. ‘When the time comes I just have to be ready and prove to the people here that I am ready to play. Who knows when that time is? If it’s all year I might wait the whole year, so what? If I come back at the All-Star (break), so what? If anything, I think I’ve learned it’s going to help me with my patience. I think I’m way more patient.’
