    Rose might be the best Vet PG available.

    I guess this would be an ok signing?

    Please no. Rose is finished. Just re-sign Ennis.

    I don't want him, I was mainly laughing at how is this even a thing. He doesn't fit into what we are trying to do here, and after his whole court case thing I wouldn't call him a mentor.

    That's it? That's not even the exception amount we have left.

    I'm pretty sure Rondo didn't want to play second fiddle to the Ball Show.

    That's fine, we need high character guys here. No more garbage.

    Wow, I'd understand this if he were starting, but he's not. They re-signed Holiday and they have Hield. We must have really cooled on him, or he didn't like the role we were pitching of mentor.

    they traded Hield for Cousins and yes Rondo is starting, they're making Holiday the SG

    appears he wanted to go to what he think is a better team with AD and Cousins. Can't blame him, but yes your right we could have paid him more for just the 1 year

    I really don't know what to think about Rose, not going to try either until a legit source says something.

    :D Man I am out of it, WTF am I thinking? We just played him on the Kings in SL like a week ago. Yes, you're 100% right, this must have been about the starting role.

    Good fit for Rondo. He'll get to start and impact the game while running the offense.

    They'll have Rondo, Jrue as the starting guards, Hill as the SF and then Davis and Cousins. Really tough to get that team to all click and work well, but if they do, Davis and Cousins can destroy most of the league, on any given night they're a pair of 30/15/5 players.

    Lacking shooting though from their guards and SF though.

    I follow that Dribbletoomuch IG account who's like a ball handling trainer and have seen other players practice in that very Lakers facility like Anthony Davis.

    I'm sure a lot of players like to live and train out here in LA during the summer in the offseason.

    So take that with a grain of salt, but I def wouldn't mind DRose off the bench.

    Look at the floor, it says "Jackson Center". I believe it's this guy's house

    If DRose would take our $4Mil exception & be cool coming off the bench, we'd have to consider it.

    Maybe I'm crazy but Derrick Rose can still ball and he's a MUCH better player than Tyler Ennis. At $4M for 1 year, I'd take him in a heartbeat.

    Those knees don't look too bad. He can still elevate on his jump shot.
