Derrick Rose's struggles with Team USA at the FIBA World Cup have dominated headlines, but with only Sunday's championship game remaining for Rose and the Americans, it sounds like the former MVP has gotten what he wanted out of the experience.

Rose on his World Cup: "I would give it an A. Coming off of what I had to go through and getting a spot on the team after missing 2 years?" — K.C. Johnson (@KCJHoop) September 13, 2014 Rose said he's in best shape ever B4 camp: "I accomplished everything I wanted to accomplish but win this championship. That’s tomorrow." — K.C. Johnson (@KCJHoop) September 13, 2014 Rose on rehabs: "I always had that inner confidence. Even though I don’t show it like that, I always know I’m one of the best in the world." — K.C.

Rose looked impressive in pre-tournament action, but his shooting struggles in Spain caused many to question whether John Wall or Damian Lillard would have been better options for the U.S., especially with Rose and Tom Thibodeau making his World Cup stint sound like somewhat of a glorified rehab program.

Nevertheless, if Rose has successfully gotten himself into game shape and has shaken off the rust that saw him shoot just 35 percent from the field in 10 games with the Bulls last season and 27 percent for Team USA this month, Chicago should be thrilled with his tournament.
