Muideen Ogunmola aka Blocknation captures Chicago Bulls guard Derrick Rose doing, what we all hope he’ll be doing coming off another surgery. In an excerpt taken from the piece on Rose in ESPN magazine by Wright Thompson. Here is what Rose had to say about his approach, coming back for the third time.
“Rose approached his first recovery like a jock. He pushed himself. He believed, however foolishly, in the possibility of complete recovery, of resuming an ascent without losing anything. “I was too anxious,” he says. “I wanted it too bad. I wanted to prove everybody wrong. I don’t know, it just wasn’t me.”
This time, things are going to be different.
