Derrick Rose buys 3 million dollar condo in trump tower.

[nathanjizzle]

He got 1 of the top 4 condos in the trump tower for 3 million. Still chump change to him but hes being very smart with his money.

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-ball-dont-lie/derrick-rose-buys-2-8-million-condo-chicago-195148826.html


Because of yet-to-be determined NBA salary bylaws, we don't know exactly how much Chicago Bulls guard Derrick Rose is set to make with the contract extension he signed last December, but all indications point to pulling in around $100 million over the next five seasons of his stay in Chicago. We do know that he recently signed a massive $200 million deal to stay with his preferred shoe company over the next 13 years. And all this goes a long way toward aiding him in his recent purchase of a $2.8 million, three-bedroom condo in Chicago's Trump Tower.

The deal, as reported by Dave Matthews at Chicago Real Estate Daily, sounds like a match made in sky-scraping heaven (heaven help me for writing that last line) for the 23-year Bulls MVP.

The condo offers uninterrupted, nearly panoramic views of Chicago, said Andrew Glatz, president of Chicago-based brokerage Crown Heights Realty and an active agent in the tower. The unit also includes four bathrooms and a den.

"He got one of the top four units in the building," said Mr. Glatz, who was not involved in the deal. "For a guy who's 23 and living a bachelor life, I can't imagine a better bachelor pad."

Well, until the guy finds a way to get his own potato skin bar wedged into his living room, we can always imagine a better bachelor pad.

Rose apparently stayed at the hotel in Trump Towers last summer for three weeks, and promptly became smitten with the building because "no one bothers you there;" although we should point out that most hotels offer convenient "Do not disturb" or "No moleste" placards to hang from your room handle these days, if Rose is interested.

Derrick's new digs clock in at around 3,100 square feet, it is "near the top of the 92-story tower," and he negotiated a pair of parking spaces into the purchase. Also, it's believed that Rose warmly smiled after making the purchase, watched a little game-tape, and then hunkered down for a pregame nap.

Rose didnt get the penthouse.....wtf is the point?

How you gonna be the MVP and live near the top?

[PP34Deuce]

Are Chicago news trying to get him robbed? Southside goons are notorious for jacking any Chicago raised celebrity who makes money

Eddie Curry- Robbed numerous times
Antoine Walker- Held at gun point
NFL Rashard Mendenhall got robbed on south side the week after he signed his NFL contract.

Be careful Rose.

Rose: Who invited this ghetto, over-sized 12 year old hopped up on Mountain Dew dancing everywhere like its a re-run of Soul Train, destroying all my new custom imported furniture.

[Go Getter]

Can't win for losing...the people that complain he should have gotten the penthouse are the same ones that would laugh at him if he had money problems in the future.

[ballashotcalla]

How is this news? He was already a multi-millionaire and could've bought this before.

If the condo was 30 million bones, then I see this as news worthy.

This is a not a shot at rose. If Kobe or Lebron bought a 3 million dollar condo, it would not be news because its chump change to them.

chump change

Kevin Durant would have gone with the penthouse.

Of course. Penthouse=Broke

[SwooshReturns]

And end up broke like AI?
AI is broke because dude was the biggest partier on the planet, with the biggest ghetto entourage to pay and take care of.

It's also why he was an elite player until 2008 and then dropped off the face of the earth. Partying and late nights FINALLY caught up with him. He was also a notorious drunk (got banned from a Detroit Casino for pissing in the lobby in front of customers)

AI's mind set is totally different from Rose.

Rose is pretty humble. He drove a pickup truck his first 2 1/2 years in the league.

AI was still buying Lambos as recently as a few years ago when he couldn't even afford the damn insurance, plates for them.

Talk about ghetto fab.

That's exactly why he did not buy the penthouse, his mindset is different and has nothing to do with his level of play. So the other guy whom I addressed is wrong in faulting him for not going for the pent.

Good, now he is closer to GOD to hear his whines about "I cant get no calls. No one goes through this like me. Why GOD why?" :oldlol:

[sportsfan76]

It is so many unemployed people in chicago and don't give a **** about Rose buying a condo. How is this news?

[IGOTGAME]

When you sign a 200 million dollar shoe deal and rake in 20 mill a year in guaranteed salary ......this is decent purchase.

[Balla_Status]

Pretty sure Dirk gets less calls than Rose.

[emaugust]

It's real good to see the young baller spending smart and not going all MTV cribs full retard with all his new found riches. Good role model.

[GOBB]

bu bu bu bu Rose is my favorite player!

He is, doesnt mean I cant clown his bad haircuts and interviews. :confusedshrug:

Did it with Allen Iverson. He wears t shirts and sweatpants with a hat to the club. Last time he got dressed up with his Georgetown team photo.

But but but but Iverson was your favorite player!

:eek:

I'm sure Derrick Rose would have laughed at my post. Stop being protective big brother only you have no real relation. :no:

[Go Getter]

Bad haircuts?

[SwooshReturns]

Bad haircuts?
Yea, only thing that makes nadda sense. GOBB is usually funny though, so we'll let it slide.

too bad he can't buy a weather machine

He should of just went and retaken the SAT instead, right?

[Tenchi Ryu]

Bad haircuts?
He means Rose's hair pattern in the back of his head. He has like a split thing, but thats pretty much a common black thing with uneven patterns on the scalp,. Or a case of him not brushing his hair
:oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:

[GOBB]

Bad haircuts?

He gets a haircut and it looks like he still needs one. Durant suffers from it as well.

Rose and Durant cant get sharp haircuts, waves going at all.

Derrick Rose rear-ended on Kennedy Expressway

Staff report
Tue Mar 13 2012 7:39 PM
Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose was involved in a minor fender bender when the car he was driving was rear-ended on the Kennedy Expressway, Illinois State police officials said.

The accident happened at about 4:25 p.m. on the I-90 South Bound lanes at Ogden, police said in a press release this evening.

Rose, of Northbrook, was in his 2011 Beige Bentley when he was rear-ended by a 2002 Green Saturn driven by Charles Tratwein of Dundalk, Md, police said.

Rose, 23, refused treatment by a Chicago Fire Department ambulance and told police he would be checked by his own doctor at a later time, officials said.

Tratwein, 42, was cited for failing to reduce speed to avoid a crash, police said.

It's called having nappy hair and not getting your haircut short enough to hide it (or not brushing enough).

I remember in 2k10 or 2k11 they had Durant with naps in his hair:oldlol:

I thought that price was kind of low. In NY the Trump Tower penthouses, which were frequently rented for $20,000 a night, to Michael Jordan, Michael Jackson and Eddie Murphy in the 90's were running about 40 mill. They are mostly rented these days. The 22 year old Russian lady that brought the 88 million dollar apartment - less than 8,000 square feet - is right around the corner from a Trump property.

Westbrook could at LEAST tell Durant some oil, a brush and a good lining is all he need...Then again, so could Westbrook.
