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

praises be to the basketball gods for this bounty of messy trade drama

Rose on the Knicks sounds fun

former mvp traded for the lesser lopez brother, what a tumble

*whispers* i like this trade for both sides

the knicks buying into an aging point guard's twilight years.... what a time to be alive

Rose, Melo, Dwight

Is this Ewing all over again? i mean cut in 3 diff people but still EWING

feel v sorry for the anxiety prone rose to have to fail under the big lights of nyc media tbh but on the other hand LOL

He'll buy a nice house in yonkers

lil wide right but good attempt at regional refernce

hooray Jerian Grant Bulls jersey!

I was mostly imagining him hanging out at Sarah Lawrence but thx

P jax loves his big point guards with no outside shot, could kind of see this one coming

Prob an ok gamble to sell to Carmelo to convince him that they're trying to win now-ish rather than prepping for zinger's prime but obviously it's not going to work out that well

sarah lawrence is in bronxville

Jerian grant is not half-bad from what I saw of him. Horace's nephew!

ah see I am old and forget what towns my friends went to college in, best of luck anyways to the grads out there

omg i had back to back meetings and im missing Trades now

oh the places youll go

Teague seems like a steal for Indiana, I've never been clear on why the Hawks hated him and their offense was so static they really needed a lead guard who can move and make stuff happen. Hill is fine but I'd really want a Teague type to get defenses moving and open things up for p George and turner to work

Also he always seems to tear up the c's so larrys got that going for him

george hill is reasonable exum insurance

hill is on utah

yeah i like hill to utah!

idk utah looking pretty indyish in that they dont have enough players who can create a shot/push the pace

well yeah they're not gonna be an elite team but its an upgrade and they didn't give up much

idk 12th pick isnt nothing

jfc maybe this year it is

Draft picks for sale! By my count that's picks 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 19, 20, & 21 on the market

I don't know how I feel about this Rose deal. He's a big risk but could work out ok, and I'm not too sorry to lose anything they let go.

lopez is the type of useful nba player the knicks never value enough because theyre always swinging for the fences

And for the wrong fences!

a knicks fence has to be past its prime but still look vaguely pretty when purchased only to start splintering immediately upon acquisition

lol p much, except Rose is such an obvious caveat emptor

remember when they traded tyson chandler for jose calderon then chandler was immediately the second best player on a championship team lol

um

don't think the mavs won the championship after he went back or am I not understanding your post

sry i remebered that wrong!

made too much sense

remember when they traded tyson chandler for jose calderon then chandler was immediately the second best player on a championship team lol

what you mean is "remember when charlotte traded tyson chandler for erick dampier's expiring contract and then chandler was immediately the second best player on a championship team lol" (i didn't)

thats what i meant

haha ok yeah, in fact checking the stats Chandler's performance after that trade wasn't too different than what he was doing for the Knicks. I didn't think that deal was so terrible at the time but Calderon has been lackluster

woo trades!

derrick rose on the knicks, what could possibly go wrong

anyway regardless i think we cn all agree dwight needs to get on the knicks asap

I just realized Shane Larkin was part of that deal, really liked that dude for some reason but he's on the Nets now

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojVertlcaINBA
Bulls, Heat and Raptors are in advanced discussions on a 3-team trade that would send Jimmy Butler to Miami, sources tell @TheVertical
