Tom Thibodeau was asked if Derrick Rose has looked good in Chicago Bulls scrimmages.

"He's had some very good practices," Thibodeau said. "The big thing about his game is he makes the game easy for everyone else, because he demands so much attention and he knows how to create easy scoring opportunities for everybody. That's the mark of a superstar, the ability to make others better."

Rose has spent considerable time working on his outside shot.

"A big part of shooting is confidence and concentration,” Thibodeau said. “He's had an opportunity to do those things for an extended amount of time now. So he's feeling very good about his shot and he's mixing his game up extremely well right now. He's got the shot and the drive going, so it's good."
