I mean, if he doesn't care about money, then why not? IF we get rose and Blake Griffin, we will have a respectable squad with lonzo. then trade dlo and picks for PG13.

jk, but thoughts?

if Rose would take a paycut I wouldn't mind signing him as backup point guard here.

I think Jeff Teague is a bigger possibility though.

I rather have Rose over Teague based on talent, Teague isn't really making a impact with Indiana, at least Rose has the talent.

We'll see how he feels when it time to sign on the dotted line, I doubt he'll be as charitable.

Rose is having a huge impact in New York.

Don't blame Rose with the stupidity of New York and there obsession with a broken down system.

Stay away with a 10 mile radius. Derrick Rose as a starting PG in 2017 is not going to make you a championship team (or anywhere remotely close to the playoffs).

Of course you don't overpay Rose, but if you can get
him at a reduced discount he will be a upgrade, I mean would you rather have Rondo or Rose?

you think Teague would come to the Lakers to backup a young guy? Indy is going to pay Teague to be their starter.....and if they do not, someone will.

Why should we go after another washed up player? Isn't Mozgov and Deng enough?

He is really not the kind of guard we need, Dlo is our scoring guard.

Why would they do that?

Rose is kinda of a slacker. He's not going to be a big difference maker.


Our priority should be a way out of Deng and Moz, while trying to
pry George or Hayward to the Lakers...

1. He cares about money; he just might be accepting that he won't get the max. I think he's thinking about settling for $15 million plus.

2. If he prioritizes winning, why would be come here? You don't sacrifice money to come to a 20-win team that is years away from contending.
