Not at all... The mental aspect of an injury is a HUGE part of recovery, it isn't just about the physical aspect. If he isn't mentally ready, there is no reason to go out there & increase his chances of getting hurt again & risking his future. From a Chicago team standpoint, they've made it this far throughout the season & playoffs without him, they might as well grind it out with what got them this far. If he comes back, you're not only throwing him into the fire during the most intense part of the season (he goes from pregame individual warmups to playing the best team in the league), but you also have to worry about getting in game shape & chemistry issues. All things considered I don't see a problem with him sitting out & waiting until he's ready.
