Rose is getting released:
Quote
@ShamsCharania: Utah will likely release former NBA MVP Derrick Rose, league sources tell Yahoo.

Could the Celtics find a use for him off the bench as an offensive spark?   Can he still even provide that?

no.  He is done.  he will prob take a much longer personal leave this time....

he won't be back in the NBA imo

China?

Doubt it.

Me right now:


Grizzlies now may have raised the price on Danny

Watch Danny make a deal for a has been bum instead of Evans

Cavs lineup  -  I dont like the look of this :(

Thompson
Love
Lebron
Smith
Clarkson

Nance Jr.
Hood
Hill
Hill will start over Clarkson and Hood probably does over Smith.

add Jeff Green

1 hour, 7 minutes to go.

I'm half heartedly hoping we get Evans for Nader + Future 2nd but doubt it  :P

@TheSteinLine: The Timberwolves will try to sign Derrick Rose if he clears waivers after his looming release by Utah, according to league sources

Thibodeau going after another ex-player.

I was thinking that also. Just heard IT does not want to come off the bench in LA...might be bought out there

I think Magic will sit down with IT and work something out.  It’s better for both sides.

Does adding Tyreke Evans now even matter that much?

On paper CLE got a lot better and also younger (better defense too)
On paper. But turning over 1/3 of your roster and 4 players in you rotation means it could take a long time to adjust. Also, Clarkson, Hood and Nance provide very little playoff experience.

Still think a healthy Celtics and Raptors team have great chance at winning the East.

Boston adding Monroe and they have the wildcard of all wildcards in Hayward...something just feels like he is going to be back by late March or april

So then IT gets bought out, who picks him up?

Yeah and it depends on if Lue can even make it work and figure out the rotations and such (not easy).
