Re: Derrick Rose Traded to the Knicks in a Blockbuster Deal
I like the deal for the Knicks. I don't think it puts them in an East title contention yet but it's a step towards it.

Re: Derrick Rose Traded to the Knicks in a Blockbuster Deal
I think the Bulls/Knicks trade was win/win.
Knicks take a flyer for 1 year to see if Rose can improve and stay healthy. Rose is in a contract year so unlike last year I suspect Derrik will be attacking the paint more then just settling for 3s and stepback jumpers. He was very mediocre at 44th in PER for PGs, but he was in a new system (Hoiberg) and coming off preseason injury. Doubt he will ever be top 10 PG again, but he certainly can improve on last season.
Bulls replace Noah & Gasol with a reasonable $ contract in Lopez. Grant gets them younger and Calderon comes off the books next year so Bulls can start rebuilding. They may have also solved some team chemistry issues with Butler.Comment
