The Bulls are sending Derrick Rose, Justin Holiday and a 2017 2nd-round pick for Robin Lopez, Jerian Grant and Jose Calderon, per source.

Sorry to see RoLo go.. But I like the risk

 

[bosoxlover12]

Great fucking value for the Knicks, btw. Gave up basically shit for Rose, who at least has the potential to be a star

 

[BrewCrewFan]

Could def. see Dwight signing with the Knicks.
 
Rose-Melo-Dwight the new big 3

Bulls basically dumped Rose. That's hilarious.
 
Knicks go after Howard now too, guaransheed.

Die hard Bulls and D Rose fan here. I see more Knicks fans so far complaining than Bulls fans lol. Educated ones though. Not the common fan. I actually like it for my Bulls. We shed cap, get rid of the Rose and Jimmy dilemma, get a young PG, Lopez is a very solid center, and we get something for Rose instead of the risk of losing him for nothing in 2017. I am in shock but I actually like it.

Phil is all in on these washed up stars.

Jerian Grant is nothing more than a bench piece. Y'all have a huge whole at PG still. If Chicago is planning on a full rebuild, then trading Butler for #3 or #5 to get their point guard of the future may just be happening

Butler is worth more than the #3 or #5 pick in a very weak draft (outside of the top 2 of course)

Don't see a point in a full rebuild. The team really under performed last year mainly due to a new coach and system....lopez and calderon are solid vets as well. Jimmy likes to handle a lot so I see him being a PG in many cases until a legit one comes to town. We save some cap to. We have a lot of money to spend so if we acquire two good free agents we are defintiely going to be competitive at least.

exactly. hes staying. he is the franchise player. dealing Rose solves lots of issues currently and possibly future ones with his injury history.

In b4 Rose tears ACL boarding plane to New York









Seriously, though, I hope he revitalizes his career.
