Recommendation: Thibodeau, who apparently talks to Rose almost daily, said "His concentration in rehab is fantastic. He just has to be patient and keep doing what he's doing." Though Rose isn't expected to be ready for the start of next season, it appears he's off to a good start on his long road to recovery. "I think he understands what he has to go through, and he's approaching it like he does everything else," Thibodeau said. "His rehabs are his games and practices now."
