Jalen has better career prospects in broadcasting and talk shows (charismatic guy) than he does on the court. He's clearly on the downslide and would be a solid contributor on a lottery team at best (back to Toronto? j/k).
I'd say he's better off if he retires to Television.
And like most people, I agree that he'd be the wrong choice for the 15th spot.

Vomit has more charisma than Jalen Rose.
They should probably worry about getting younger, not older.
i may be in the few but i say pick him up. though i doubt pop would even consider picking him up i think it would be a good idea. he could have a slight bigger role then big dog, add even more depth to our team. believe it or not he can play defense. what can it hurt? if he acts up trade or release his ass.
The last roster spot should go to a young, long 3, not an old douche.
IMO a player like Rose is totally useless on a roster like the Spurs.
Spurs for sure don't need any additional veteran help.
and being veteran is the only thing that is left when looking at Rose nowadys.

It's confirmed he's going to be available...
Knicks Will Buy Out Contract of Rose
By THE NEW YORK TIMES
Jalen Rose will be waived by the Knicks, possibly as soon as today, as the team continues its youth movement.
The team is negotiating a buyout of the final year of Rose’s contract, which calls for him to earn $16.9 million. The precise terms of the buyout are not known.
“We’re close to reaching an agreement, and my expectation is it could be done as early as tomorrow,” Arn Tellem, Rose’s agent, said last night.
Rose, 33, was became expendable after the Knicks signed small forward Jared Jeffries over the summer. They also drafted small forward Renaldo Balkman with the 20th pick.
100% we do not need the soft punk Rose.Quote:

The Isiah Thomas coaching regime isn't roses for all the Knicks.
Thomas announced Monday that the team has waived forward Jalen Rose.
A report indicating Rose could be cut and have his contract bought out appeared on the New York Daily News Web site late Sunday.
The Knicks negotiated with his agent Arn Tellem to reach a buyout of the final year of his contract, worth $16.9 million.
Rose has averaged 14.7 points with five teams over 12 NBA seasons. In four preseason games with the Knicks this season, Rose averaged 10.5 minutes.
It will be interesting to see where he ends up...
He'd be perfect in Detroit. He has been unreasonable about playing the 3 in the past, but he's a better fit as a small forward in Flip Saunders's scheme than either Prince or Delfino is.
Does Dallas have a roster spot? Cuban likes signing guys he's heard of.
a few players on other teams just got waived also
darvin ham waived
pacers white waived
Darvin Ham's a long three.
*giggle*
Doesn't stop Fox from using him.Quote:

the Heat on the other hand would give him the chance to play also the point (at least as long as Williams is out) and Rose often mentioned that this is his favourite position. and with the Heat he might have a better shot at a ring.
Word has it that Riles and the Heat may be very interested.
Riley Showing Interest In Jalen Rose?
31st October, 2006 - 4:32 am
Miami Herald - Unlike most cases when the Heat coach downplays free-agent prospects, Miami coach Pat Riley sounded intrigued Monday with the possibility of adding 6-foot-8 veteran Jalen Rose, who was waived by the Knicks Monday.
"He's a very skilled player," Riley said shortly after Rose agreed to a buyout with the Knicks. "He's still young, I think, at 33 years old. So he is capable. He's very capable, we know that. But he has to be at the right place at the right time."
Riley offered his comment about Rose shortly after he said a potential return of forward Shandon Anderson has been placed on the backburner.
Because Rose received a significant portion of the $17 million he was due this season from the Knicks, he would arrive with relatively little impact on the Heat's salary cap.
Hmmm...Rose would be an interesting pickup for the Spurs. Although, he might fit in better with a few other teams out there. The Heat and Pistons being two of them (for various reasons).
And like Aggie said, low risk/high reward potential. If the Spurs did pick him up, and if he does get in shape, he can provide solid off the bench scoring, plus being a versatile player when the Spurs decide to go with small ball again in the playoffs. Plus...where are these other young small forwards out there that the Spurs should be picking up just as the season is about to begin?
Maybe it hasn't been mentioned, but Malone would have come in very handy against the Mavs.Quote:

When last seen, he was owning the Spurs on defense.
