This is for sure: If Rose is healthy, he's starting.

"The guy's a star," said Skiles, not prone to hyperbole. "He's beyond quick and fast, and he's so powerful. He can go to the rim and finish. He has unique shots in the paint that he makes — floaters, runners. And that doesn't even mention that he sees the floor and passes the ball. He's going to be very hard to handle."

I've always liked him and still do.

No bullshit. Kinda wish he was still our (pre-last-year) coach.

Is D Rose going to be more of a Penny Hardaway style PG?

“I’m not the type of point guard to sit back and pass the ball all day,” he said. “I can score a little bit, so that helps the team. When I get to be more aggressive, we get people open. I’m just attacking and getting people open right now.”

He is too explosive of a scorer to suppress that part of his game. He can carry a team so he should be attack first rather than pass first but his aggressiveness creates opportunities.
