neither has ever been a good defender tough
Not a fan of players that have a higher PPG than PER tbh
You might want to check his PER when Rose isn't on the floor -blocking![]()
Rose played. Coincidence?![]()
B/C Rose was out when he had 55 & returned to -block tonight![]()
Noah basically done for the year. Time for the Bulls to jettison his expiring contract (he's not resigning) plus Rose (salary dump). Will get zero assets back, but why not trade salary to a team looking to clear out for next year's FA? Bulls will have no cap room.
Should also look to jettison Rose for minimal assets going out the door. Something with these as the principals with other assets going in / out as necessary:
Noah for Jrue or Tyreke (NOP should tank this season and try pairing Davis with a cheap top 7 pick)
+
Rose for Joe Johnson and Shane Larkin (suggested by Lowe or his guest, but gives the Nets a flyer on Rose, as they're in rebuild mode for a while anyway)
Lots of teams that are a complete mess right now, so why not trade assets worth nothing for something that could help them make the ECF?
Bulls trading away noah and rose will be the best thing that will happen to them since jordan.
When was the last time the Bulls traded anyone as a salary dump? They EXPECT to get 1st rd picks for ty contracts which is why they ended up buying out Boozer instead of trading him.![]()
They only traded Deng b/c they got a 1st rd pick for him.
I expect Noah/Rose to finish the season in Chicago but Rose might opt out & get a longer contract since he's one knee injury away from being out of the league.
What's the max deal he gets from anyone right now? No way he gets more than $20mm guaranteed which he's slated to make next year. Teams aren't stupid anymore.
there is a team that always trade with the bulls....the fkn knicks
rose + noah to 76s could get them one of the young bigs...better then nothing...
Too many teams with cap room with too little FA talent, he will fetch a nice contract for sure, though perhaps no where near max that he still alludes for.
lol people still in the old 2000 cba mentality where salary dumps actually made sense...
Chicago dumps useless players and gives itself a fighting chance this year.
Expiring contracts aren't worth anything in the current CBA but there is value in getting out of contracts a year early with the rising cap. If Chicago can dump Rose AND improve, why wouldn't they do it? Graceful way to move on. The Noah injury gives them another salary to make numbers work and take in longer dated money.
But you're right in that these guys will not net any young, high upside talent. I laugh at the suggestion that Philly trades a young big for those two.
i'd like to see a realistic scenario where that does happen tbh![]()
Are Rose and Noah going to help them at all this year? Any trade where they can jettison them and pick up anything in return increases their ceiling.
Noah would purely be a salary dump for a player with a contract longer than one year that a team wants to move on from.
But I do agree with you on the "fighting chance" piece. Pretty much no matter what they do, ECF is their ceiling.
Seems like no Bulls body is going to emerge unscathed from the combination of Thibs big minutes and Chicago ty medical staff“Maybe. I hope not,'' Butler told the Sun-Times. “Is my knee the same as it was before the injury? No...I could see the minutes issue providing red flag for teams trying to hire Thibs next .The Wolves would probably fear for guys like Towns/Wiggins getting down to the ground..
Urban myth.
