Speculation of D-rose to Pels

To get rid of Gordon, I'm for it

Davis, who is also a Chicago native, would welcome the entry of Rose. It will also boost the team's popularity. Real GM had a thread on possible Rose trades and user 'Austincys21'had a proposal.
The Bulls will send Derrick Rose and Tony Snell to New Orleans in exchange for Eric Gordon and Jrue Holiday. Gordon is an expiring contract and a low-risk endeavor for the Bulls. Holiday would be a better, low-key fit alongside Jimmy Butler (as the Butler-Rose alpha dog issue continues to hound them).

This is like taking a "should we" thread seriously

won't happen but would Fap if happened

Talk about packing the paint

Was a bad idea then, still a bad idea now. I don't think many of you realize how bad DRose is..

13.6/3.3/5.9, shooting 36.3/21.4/80.6 in 32.4 MPG.

that is with a contract that pays him 21mil next year.

Just for comparison....Jrue and EG's numbers respectively:
11.0/1.5/4.5, shooting 39.5/30.3/79.5 in 21.4 MPG
and
17.8/2.4/3.0, shooting 39.8/35.1/86.7 in 35.5 MPG

Jrue gets paid 11.2mil next year, EG is an UFA.

He prime to turn it around. Just need a change of scenary.

If it was EG, jrue and Asik for rose, Noah and snell I would entertain. Especially to trade the contract that Asik is getting to sit his sorry arse on the bench.

Another guard who gets hurt every year, exactly what we need

I don't pretend to be some NBA guru, but I don't know why you would be so excited about getting rid of an expiring contract that gives you a lot of flexibility in the offseason for somebody who has spent the majority of the last 4 years injured and gives you a lot less flexibility. It's like you waited several years to get rid of a bad contract, and you want to make it last just a little bit longer because you like being fricked.

This is just silly. Rose's greatest strength used to be his ability to attack the basket. Now he attacks much less and finishes much worse. A change of scenery won't help him anymore than it would Eric Gordon. Injury and age have stolen something he used to have.

Tyreke >>>>>>> Shell of Derrick Rose and is half the cost.
