Basketball Bulls' Rose (ACL) taking full contact in practice

That is great news.

I just hope Rose can get back to what he was - a helluva player.

The latest I'm hearing is:

Rose will start 5 on 5 practice after the All Star break.
I'm also hearing that he might sit the entire season.

I hope he gets back to 100% soon.

I just have this nagging feeling that the window for winning a ring is closing for the Bulls.
