D-Rose Ahead Of Schedule

Though the Bulls have been eliminated for almost 2 months now, Mat has found some news that has him jumping for joy.

Nick Friedell of ESPN Chicago is reporting that Derrick Rose is "ahead of schedule" in the rehab process following the injury to his ACL.

"He's ahead of schedule. [The rehab] is a way to keep things fresh for Derrick, to help give him some variety." -Dr. Brian Cole, who performed surgery

Nothing would please Mat more than to see the MVP back on the court sooner than later.

Mat doesn't want the Bulls to even think about rushing Derrick back, and knows that people heal at their own pace when it comes to ACL surgeries.

But D-Rose is a warrior, and he will do all he can to get back as soon as he can.

Mat just hopes it's closer to the 8 month mark than the 12.
