Per Woj: Knicks-Bulls Closing in on Derrick Rose Trade/ Edit: Done deal

[TheRtist]

I'm still stunned about this trade. The Knicks hit a big lick from this offseason. All they need is Noah to join forces with Rose and Melo. I thought Knicks were going to be done like the Lakers but Phil aka Zen Master is making the right moves that will bring them back into playoffs talks.

Bulls trade Derrick Rose to Knicks, change direction of franchise

That's because the Bulls had received strong signals that Rose would be open to testing free agency in 2017 and likely to leave his hometown, sources said. Rose, in the final season of a deal that will pay him $21.3 million this season, will again be seeking maximum dollars.

Instead, in a deal Forman called "a retool rather than a rebuild," the Bulls proactively tried to get some return for Rose, clearly the best player in the trade. Sources said other exploratory talks led to teams asking the Bulls to include a future first-round pick to take on Rose's contract, knowing he could walk in free agency next summer.

If Knicks got a competent medical staff, D.Rose could stay healthy.

What about that rape case

Im hearing other teams were wanting us to include a 1st with him

but Ill say this ... those other cities arent NY and probably a bit shook Rose will leave them next summer. Knicks must want to keep him long term and I think Rose would love to live in NY

There's not that many places I could see him resigning.

Knicks seem like a good situation for Rose

And the Bulls are nowhere close to contention so I will slander garpax Jerry for their horrible work forever

I totally understand the cap dump.......That's a win. I'm not going to argue with that.

But still to me, losing Jerian Grant who has the potential to be a real rotation player is just a bad look to me.. The goal should be developing players like that, not benching them, then trading them for vets that will be well into their 30's and have no trade value by the time KP is ready to contend;.

I get taking a gamble but I personally think Rose is a corpse (16/4/4 on 13.5 PER 47 TS% 0.96 PPP -4.27 RAPM (81 out of 85 PG)) and it feels like trading for Rose is going to lead them to signing Dwight/Noah and someone else to a huge contract when they really would be best tanking. Trying to convince Melo getting rid of him is best and preparing for a future with KP.

Galloway>>>>grant. I honestly don't think grant will ever reach rose status even 2016 rose is better than jerian's ceiling.
