[Gileraracer]

There's no way any team should pay DRose more than 7mil/year.

But on one of those last interviews he sounded like he's looking forward to the increased cap space and is expecting to get paid big money.


Bulls hopefully won't do that, so chances are quite good he leaves.

Let's see who's stupid enough to take that injury prone guy :facepalm

actually, any franchise would be smart to take rose, hes an under the radar superstar right now. it shows in this thread.

He's not under the radar, he hasn't played a whole season for years and still costs the Bulls nearly 20mil/year.


When he was healthy he was a BEAST, but right now i don't think he'll ever be fully healthy again.

[KembaWalker]

Do the Lakers get you as a fan as well?

Horrible representative of the Chicago fanbase

"no team should pay rose more than 7 mil a year" :roll: holy shit how people are underrating rose. the guy just averaged 18 points and 5 assists last season from a 3 year hiatus and was the second winningest player on the team behind butler, yet he only deserves 7 mil?

[ImKobe]

Rose (who should be in his prime) is playing worse than Kobe, who's at the tail end of his career and has suffered 3 season-ending injuries in a row...

Lakers are already overpaying one injury-prone has-been, we don't need another one.

[90sgoat]

As of right now Rose only has value as a 6th man.

[Gileraracer]

Because he can't stay healthy. Like I said, he was great when healthy, but why should a team pay 20mil to a guy that played:

2011: 39 games
2012: 0 games
2013: 10 games
2014: 51 games

and shot:

2011: .435
2012: -
2013: .354
2014: .405
2015: so far .339

For the money he gets paid right now the bulls could afford a great PG that can actually stay healthy. Aaron Brooks will not help them get past Cleveland :roll:

[poido123]

Rose is just not the same anymore both physically and mentally and his lack of drive/energy in recent games is infecting the rest of the team.


I'd go as far as to call him a team cancer.


Windhorst reported a long term rift between teammates and him since his no show during the playoffs against the Heat in 2012 when he was cleared to go.


It will be interesting to see the reports come out once Rose more than likely leaves through trade or free agency. I'd say there's a lot more stuff to the last 3 years we simply haven't heard about.

[Dragonyeuw]

Rose is done. His otherwordly athleticism from 4 years ago isn't the same, and it doesn't appear as though he has the ethic to make the adjustments needed to remain elite. Remember when him and Westbrook was a legit comparison? Yeahhh, those days are long gone.

[Beastmode88]

Rose isnt even the best player on his team. :roll:

[Mr. Jabbar]

Huge rose fan here but hes not relevant enough to deserve a thread. Mods, pls close.

Nick Young, Rose, Kobe... Sounds like a dynasty to me.

[Derka]

NBC about to learn a harsh lesson in using Brian Windhorst as a source for anything other than where to get a good cheeseburger.

[guy]

I don't know if the eyes are really bothering him that much but if that's the reason, I don't see any reason why he couldn't go back to what he was last year without the boneheaded 3s, which he has stopped taking. If he could, then that's a very good player, not MVP, but still possibly all-star. Either way, he has 2 years left and hopefully this sentiment would wake his entitled ass up and make him go back to being the humble kid he was before. Bad influence from his brother and the rest of his crew seemed to have really ****ed up his reputation and partially his career.

[SpanishACB]

the bulls would be so good with a real point guard

why? hes really good, he can help your team make it to the playoffs.

[HurricaneKid]

Dude is a defensive liability, shoots 33.9% from the field, and turns the ball over 3 times/gm.

He is on my fantasy team and I'm trying to decide if I want him to play tonight or leave that spot empty. I'm leaning towards empty.

If he is still seeing double he shouldn't be playing. I'm hoping thats all this is. Because he has been godawful.

if you want to get the most out of rose, play him when hes going up against another star pg or an elite team.

all them top 3 picks .. you are right tbh :oldlol:

[Kawhi]

I'm not sure who is worse, Rose or Porker.

[hawksdogsbraves]

Rose for sure.

Parker is bad now, but at least he plays within the system, doesn't chuck, and isn't locker room cancer.

Since his MVP season he's been averaging 18ppg on 40% shooting.

Second headline I got when I searched Derrick Rose:

"Derrick Rose is playing like his next free agent contract will be in China" :oldlol:

Very true honesly. Guy is the worst starter in the league right now.

[Bosnian Sajo]

Stopped reading at "Brian Windhorst"........

Seriously, flew right over everyone else.

[IncarceratedBob]

Rose has said he is willing to re-structure his deal even if the NBAPA would be completely against it. He has value to plenty of teams, dude just needs a change of scenery

[04mzwach]

The Lakers might as well trade for Pekovic while they're at it. Add all of the best players who can't stay on the court. It wouldn't be crazy to think Kobe and Rose are connecting though when both have been accused of rape and both are struggling with career crippling injuries.

[poido123]

You can have

[poido123]

I agree with you.


A pass first, gritty PG like a Conley would be perfect

[Draz]

Crazy a man's value can just drop like that

[Cocaine80s]

Cunningham for Rose

[Genaro]

Don't do it, Mitch. I rather get another bad PG pick in the draft. At least the salary is low.

I called it in the season predictions thread.

Who would even taken rose at this point? Brooklyn or New York? They have a history of spending too much on too little due to name recognition?

Dude was legit better than Westbrook then. Rose had better game management and decision making. Now Rose is worse than Kemba Walker.

I predict he goes to the Knicks.

I think rose mentally is the biggest limitation he has.


I honestly think he's conceeded to making the most money he can before his body gives out. You can't blame him I guess, just not good from a team aspect.

A change in environment can help that though, even if you bring in new people to Chicago he is still in the familiar place where he is used to getting his way and being treated like a princess. Throw him in a new city with a whole new staff who are pushing him to work hard and you could hope he turns it around. Dunno if he would but that would be the thinking of another team taking him while getting rid of their own big contract.

pekovic actually shows promise and heart when he plays. Unlike "Life after Basketball"

[alanLA92]

As a laker fan, I would love to have a healthy Rose on the team. Too bad that will never happen since he's proven to be injury prone as hell. Already have Kobe in that regard sadly.

[nathanjizzle]

He's probably a 10 million dollar a year player if healthy, but the problem is he hasn't been able to stay on the court for the last 4 years.

I don't see how he's going anywhere. He has to have almost no trade value as he's overpaid and injury prone. So he's staying...

What is he actually worth? In current form or the form of the last 4 years? Not much, but he has shown some flashes this season.

If he can just stay on the court I think he can carve out a nice remainder of his career as a 6th man.
