<p>The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/phoenix-suns"><strong>Phoenix Suns</strong> </a>are determined to challenge for their first ever <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba">NBA</a></strong> championship. Mat Ishbia made that clear from day one, pulling off a trade for former MVP <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kevin-durant">Kevin Durant</a></strong> shortly after taking over the franchise.</p>



<p>However, KD’s arrival wasn’t enough to find immediate success. That’s why the team made <strong>serious changes after falling short this season</strong>: Nick Nurse replaced Monty Williams and Chris Paul was traded for Bradley Beal.</p>



<p>But it looks like the team is far from done. Even with Durant, Devin Booker, DeAndre Ayton and now Beal on their roster, the Suns could go after an aging star <strong>who once won MVP</strong>.</p>



<h2>Rumor: Suns could land Derrick Rose</h2>



<p>According to NBA Insider Marc Stein, the Phoenix Suns are among a group of teams interested in <strong>Derrick Rose</strong>. The New York Knicks are reportedly not picking up his $15.6 million team option, which is why the veteran guard looks set to become a free agent. The Suns, however, <strong>would face competition</strong> for the 2011 NBA Most Valuable Player:</p>



<p><em>“<strong>Phoenix, Milwaukee and Chicago have all quickly been cited as teams expected to have a level of interest in former MVP Derrick Rose</strong> after the Knicks declined to pick up their $15.6 million team option on Rose for next season.”</em></p>






<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230623#BUS#16535"></div>


<p>Even at 34, Rose is still capable of drawing interest on the open market. It would definitely be interesting to see him next to the likes of KD or Booker to contend, but <strong>a return to the Bulls also looks like a strong possibility.</strong></p>

<p><strong>Derrick Rose</strong> revamped his career thanks to the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-knicks">New York Knicks</a></strong>. In the 2008 NBA Draft, the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-bulls">Chicago Bulls</a></strong> took him with the first overall pick and he was supposed to be the next star of the franchise.</p>



<p>Rose won the <strong>Rookie of the Year Award</strong> and then became the youngest player to  be named MVP of the league at age 22. Then, injuries appeared and, in 2016, he was traded to New York. </p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230618#BUS#13482"></div>


<p>However, <strong>Derrick Rose</strong> wasn’t the same in the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba">NBA</a></strong> and signed multiple contracts with the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-cavaliers">Cavaliers</a></strong>, Jazz, Timberwolves and <strong>Pistons</strong>. In the middle of the 2020-2021 season, <strong>Tom Thibodeau</strong> rescued him for a new chance with the Knicks. </p>



<h2>Derrick Rose is out of the New York Knicks</h2>



<p>The <strong>Knicks</strong> officially won’t pick Derrick Rose’s $15.6 million option for the 2023-2024 season and, as a consequence, the veteran will become an <strong>unrestricted free agent</strong>. </p>







<p>After his second arrival to New York, Rose became crucial coming from the bench and was seen by many experts as the best<strong> Sixth Man</strong> in the <strong>NBA</strong> during the second half of the 2020-2021 season. Nevertheless, injuries appeared once again and he just couldn’t come back to prime. </p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230623#BUS#16295"></div>


<p>Though the Knicks won’t exercise his option, there’s still a chance <strong>Derrick Rose</strong> remains with them. If no other team is interested, an offer with a reduced salary might be in place.</p>

But other underdogs with big <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/miami-heat-stars-butler-and-lowry-surrender-to-lionel-messi-after-joining-inter-miami-20230609-BUS-7748.html">stars </a>couldn’t even make it to the postseason.</p>



<p>Apart from the NBA title, some players manage to win divisional titles and conference championships, it’s not the same thing, but winning one of those titles is already an honor in a league like the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/ja-morant-writes-heartfelt-apology-after-historic-nba-suspension-20230617-BUS-12851.html">NBA</a>, but some players prefer to reach the NBA Finals.</p>



<p>Another thing that also affects players is losing during the Finals, one player who lost two finals recently was Jimmy Butler playing with the Miami Heat, that can be considered a heavy blow after fighting for months to reach the playoffs.</p>



<h2>Who are the players who could never win an NBA ring?</h2>



<p>Chris Paul is on the list for obvious reasons, he is one of those big stars who has the talent but bad luck chases him and the worst thing is that <strong>his own <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/chris-paul-what-will-be-his-next-team-after-incredible-trade-for-bradley-beal-20230619-BUS-13575.html">family </a>also suffers the consequences </strong>of not having won a ring as they are victims of comments about Paul’s situation with the Finals.</p>



<ol><li>Chris Paul</li><li>Derrick Rose</li><li>Blake Griffin</li><li>Damian Lillard</li><li>Jimmy Butler</li><li>Russell Westbrook</li></ol>



<p>Derrick Rose and Russell Westbrook could win rings if they play with the right team, they have the necessary talent although <strong>Rose tends to get injured frequently.</strong> Damian Lillard is another player who needs a new team, as he has done everything necessary for Portland to win a championship.</p>

NBA: Chris Paul, Derrick Rose and other stars who could retire without a ring

<p>After months of speculation, the basketball community finally got to know the answer. <strong>Joel Embiid</strong> was named <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/NBA-News-Nikola-Jokic-and-the-biggest-MVP-snubs-of-the-year-20230503-0023.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>MVP</strong> of the <strong>2022-23 NBA season</strong></a>, in what many agree is a deserved recognition for a player who has been putting the <strong>Sixers</strong> on his back for a while.</p>
<p>Embiid got the upper hand over the likes of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nikola-jokic" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Nikola Jokic</strong></a>, who had won the award in the two previous seasons, and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/giannis-antetokounmpo" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Giannis Antetokounmpo</strong></a>. He obviously got emotional when receiving the news, but the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/philadelphia-76ers" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>76ers</strong></a> big man has always said his priority is to succeed with his team.</p>
<p>Now, he has the opportunity to help <strong>Philadelphia</strong> challenge for a long-awaited championship. Will he live up to his MVP status and make his team a title contender? Here, we’ll look at former<strong>MVPs who couldn’t shine in the postseason after receiving the award.</strong></p>
<h2>LeBron James (2009-10)</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230504_BUS_220772_cleveland_-_may_11__lebron_james_x23_of_the_cleveland_cavaliers_looks_on_while_playing_the_boston_ce.jpg_22993414_8d97001f.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Gregory Shamus/Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>LeBron James</strong></a> won his second straight NBA MVP award in the 2009-10 season, and by then, he was already establishing himself as the best in the league. However, the ending to that season was not great and it even led to his departure from <strong>Cleveland</strong>.</p>
<p>After taking down the Bulls in the first round, the #1 seed <strong>Cavaliers</strong> went home in the Conference semis after losing 4-2 to the Celtics. <strong>James had a disappointing performance in Game 5</strong> of the series, in which he only logged 15 points as he scored just 20% of his 14 shots. He went to the locker room <strong>booed by the fans and his team got knocked out in the following game.</strong></p>
<h2>Derrick Rose (2010-11)</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230504_BUS_220772_miamix_fl_-_may_24__derrick_rose_x1_of_the_chicago_bulls_looks_on_against_the_miami_heat_in_game_fou.jpg_22993414_a7e1ca19.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Mike Ehrmann/Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>In 2011, <strong>Derrick Rose</strong> became only the second player in Chicago Bulls history (along with Michael Jordan) to win MVP. At 22, he also became the youngest winner of the accolade. However, his production took a slight decline in the playoffs.</p>
<p>It’s not like the Bulls’ postseason run was a failure, since they lost in the Conference finals to the star-studded Miami Heat led by the Big Three of LeBron, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh. But the fact that they lost in just five games made some noise, and Rose had a <strong>field-goal percentage of 39% and shot just 24% of three-point attempts</strong> throughout the playoffs.</p>
<h2>Russell Westbrook (2016-17)</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230504_BUS_220772_oklahoma_cityx_ok_-_april_21__russell_westbrook_x0_of_the_oklahoma_city_thunder_waits_to_shoot_free.jpg_22993414_c0ce01c4.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    J Pat Carter/Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/russell-westbrook" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Russell Westbrook</strong></a> put up some monster numbers in the 2016-17 season, which is why he was named Most Valuable Player. That Oklahoma City Thunder team wasn’t great, though, and it became clear in the postseason.</p>
<p><span></span></p>
<div class="ck-related-news">  <span data-src="/usa/contenidos/2023/05/03/noticia_0023.html" data-type="news"></span>  <p></p>
<div id="relatedNews-24">     </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>In this case, Westbrook <strong>wasn’t to blame </strong>for his team’s shortcomings, as he did everything he could to take them further. Still, they <strong>didn’t stand a chance</strong> against the Houston Rockets, who knocked them out <strong>in only five games in the first round.</strong></p>

Right now, the <strong>Dubs</strong> are on a three-game losing streak and sixth in the West.</p>

At the deadline, <strong>Golden State</strong> brought back <strong>Gary Payton II</strong> only months after letting him go.</p>
<p>But it looks like the Warriors were waiting to pull off another move to add more depth to their roster. According to Sean Deveney of <em>Heavy.com</em>, sources told him Golden State would have gone after <strong>Derrick Rose</strong> if the <strong>Knicks</strong> had bought him out.</p>
<h2>Rumor: Warriors would have chased Derrick Rose if Knicks had cut him</h2>
<p>(Via Heavy.com)</p>
<p><em>“Not that surprised he did not get a buyout, no. The team option for next year complicated things a little bit, and he also just did not want to leave that situation. He likes Thibs. He likes [the] New York [Knicks]. But it raises the question of what is next for him because everything was laid out for him to go to the team and ask out. They would have done it. He could have gone to [the] Phoenix [Suns] to try to win a title, he could have gone back home to Chicago, both of those teams would have jumped at him. </em></p>
<p><em>“<strong>Golden State was ready to get in the mix there</strong>, too, and [the] Miami [Heat]. He would have had some really good options. He wanted to stay in a place where he is not playing, though, and where the team is pretty good but not a real contender. <strong>Derrick’s loyal. He is loyal to Thibs. He is loyal to [Knicks official William] Wesley</strong>. But they would have been OK with letting him go somewhere else. He did not want to. You have to wonder if he is going to keep playing much longer because he was in a position to reconstruct the end of his career, and he just did not take it.”</em></p>
<p>Needless to say, Rose’s best days are far behind him. That said, at 34, he’s still a veteran player who <strong>could help many teams coming off the bench</strong>. It makes sense the Warriors were interested in him had he been on the buyout market.<span></span></p>

Once an <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/derrick-rose-reveals-he-tried-to-lure-lebron-james-chicago-bulls-20210429-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MVP</a></strong> and perhaps the most exciting player to watch in the<strong> National Basketball Association,</strong> the end seems near for his career.</p>
<p>Injuries never allowed us to watch Rose fulfill his true potential. He was the youngest MVP in NBA history, and he looked like the only guy who could dethrone <strong>LeBron James</strong> in the Eastern Conference.</p>
<p>So, now that he’s likely walking the final steps of<strong> his once-promising <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/Ja-Morant-slapped-with-even-more-bizarre-accusations-20230302-0005.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> career, i</strong>t would be nice to watch him leave on a high note and playfor a championship contender. But who could use his services now? Let’s break it down.</p>
<h2>NBA Rumors: 3 Potential Landing Spots For Derrick Rose</h2>
<h3>3. Milwaukee Bucks</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230304_BUS_215434_derrick_rose_x1x.jpg_22993414_05d70f0a.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Teaming up with Giannis— Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>The <strong>Milwaukee Bucks</strong> are playing like the best team in the Eastern Conference right now. They’d give Rose a huge chance to win the NBA Finals and retire as the champion he was always supposed to be.</p>
<p>More than that, they have a glaring need for a backup point guard right now. They wouldn’t need him to play heavy minutes with <strong>Jrue Holiday </strong>there, but he’d be a solid offensive catalyst in the second unit.</p>
<h3>2. Chicago Bulls</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230304_BUS_215434_derrick_rose_x2x.jpg_22993414_d3ec8441.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    The ultimate homecoming— Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>The<strong> Chicago Bulls</strong> just waived<strong> Goran Dragic</strong> and added<strong> Patrick Beverley</strong>, so this seems quite unlikely. But there wouldn’t be a better place for him to leave the game than in his very own hometown.</p>
<p>Rose was heartbroken when the Bulls traded him to New York years ago. He was a beacon of hope in the Windy Cityand is still considered one of the<strong> greatest players to ever lace them up for the franchise.</strong></p>
<h3>1. Phoenix Suns</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230304_BUS_215434_derrick_rose_x3x.jpg_22993414_baa91e1d.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Going out strong— Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>There has been plenty of chatter over the past couple of weeks about Derrick Rose being on the<strong> Phoenix Suns’</strong> radar. That would be a joy for NBA fans, given they’re the frontrunners to win the NBA championship.</p>
<p>The Suns could always use an insurance policy behind the injury-prone <strong>Chris Paul,</strong> and Rose would be a big improvement over <strong>Cameron Payne,</strong> even at this point in his career. This would be the ultimate low-risk/high-reward pickup.</p>

We saw superstars like<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/Kyrie-Irving-makes-shocking-statement-about-Kevin-Durants-trade-20230209-0003.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kevin Durant</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/Nets-GM-claps-back-at-Kyrie-Irving-with-epic-statement-20230210-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kyrie Irving</a> </strong>find new homes, with multiple players rejoining teams they played for in the past.</p>
<p>The Western Conference is wide open, and there’s no shortage of talent in the Eastern Conference, either. So, we’re likely going to see some <strong>playoff matchups for the ages </strong>this season.</p>
<p>Even so, contenders might be far from done making moves. So, with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/Kyrie-Irving-traded-to-the-Dallas-Mavericks-Funniest-memes-and-reactions-20230205-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>NBA trade deadline</strong></a> already in the history books, let’s take a look at the three <strong>best potential buyout candidates</strong> right now.</p>
<h2>NBA Rumors: 3 Best Buyout Candidates</h2>
<h3>3. Derrick Rose</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230214_BUS_214045_derrick_rose.jpg_22993414_8a19edfb.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Derrick Rose – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Derrick Rose </strong>has no place in the <strong>New York Knicks</strong> right now. They have<strong> Jalen Brunson</strong> playing heavy minutes, and the former MVP could be better used somewhere else right now, as much as he loves<strong> Tom Thibodeau</strong> and vice versa.</p>
<p>Rose could provide an offensive spark off the bench for a contender. He’s no longer the <strong>athletic freak</strong> he used to be, but he’s still a walking bucket and a guy who can set the table for the rest of the offense.</p>
<h3>2. Will Barton</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230214_BUS_214045_will_barton.jpg_22993414_04787a55.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Will Barton – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Will Barton </strong>might as well be one of the most underrated role players in the Association. He can score from all three levelsand is a streaky scorer who doesn’t need to have a green light to take some big shots.</p>
<p>More than that, Barton’s length and lateral quickness allow him to play and defend multiple positions. He can play on and off the ball, and he’s not a part of the <strong>Washington Wizards’</strong> plans right now.</p>
<h3>1. Russell Westbrook</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230214_BUS_214045_russell_westbrookx.jpg_22993414_f427a6b8.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Russell Westbrook – Getty Images   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>The <strong>Utah Jazz</strong> are reportedly considering keeping<strong> Russell Westbrook </strong>if he’s up for it. If not, then he’d undoubtedly become the top buyout candidate this season, even after his failed tenure with the <strong>Los Angeles Lakers.</strong></p>
<p>While he may not be willing to agree to come off the bench again, Westbrook was playing like a legit <strong>Sixth Man of the Year</strong> candidate. He’s a first-ballot Hall of Famer and could most definitely help a contender.</p>

Despite he’s known <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-luka-doncic-ties-up-huge-michael-jordans-record-20221030-0049.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Luka Doncic</strong></a> for quite awhile, that wasn’t evenwith him on the court. That’s why the front office opted to let him goand bring in a player that has more NBA experience, just like <strong>Kemba Walker</strong>.</p>
<p>However, as the mainpurposefor Walker’s new role in the Mavericks is to be ready at any given time, his wellness and fitness is key to be part of the rotation. That’s one of the key things Jason Kidd pointed out when he was asked about what he thought of <strong>Walker’s signing</strong>.</p>
<p>In fact, as the <strong>Mavericks GMNico Harrison</strong>just saidto a local radio station in Dallasabout his fitness and his knee,<strong>“It’s not good,” </strong>Harrison said. <strong>“It’s not good at all. But he’s rehabbed it and it’s the best he’s felt in the last two years so, we’ll see how long that lasts.”</strong> So, there isn’t so much confidence on him, but they have been working on a possible replacement already.</p>
<h2>NBA Rumors: Dallas Mavericks could land stellar teammate for Luka Doncic</h2>
<p>According to Ric Bucher, NBA Analyst of Fox Sports, “The Mavericks, of course, lost(Jalen) Brunson to the Knicks last summer and are in desperate need of a second playmaker to relieve All-Star point forward <strong>Luka Dončić</strong>. They’ve brought on a formerNew YorkKnicks player, <strong>Kemba Walker</strong>, for a test run, but a league source said they also have interest in a current one, DerrickRose.</p>
<p>According to the specialized siteStatMuse, Rose has played in <strong>21 games</strong> for the <strong>New York Knicks</strong> in the <strong>2022-2023 NBA Seasonso far</strong>. In those games, the <strong>34-year-old point guard</strong> has averaged6.4 points, 2.0 assists and 1.8 rebounds in 21 games this season with 13 minutes per game. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but still is better than the previous tworole players in that position.</p>
<p>Even so, as an older playerthan Walker, Rose has demonstrated he has overcome his previous injuries, and has learned to play with a second or third unit for the <strong>Knicks franchise</strong>. That could be the main reason behind the interest, otherwise Walker needs to improve hisfitness, as <strong>coach Jason Kidd</strong> said.</p>

<p>The Lakers have refused to include any of their future draft picks in trade talks thus far. They could’ve had<strong> Myles Turner and/or Buddy Hield, </strong>but that reluctance to add draft capital pretty much killed the deal.</p>
<p>However, they could still land cheaper players with minor transactions here and there. With that in mind, the word around the league is that they’re keeping tabs<strong> on <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-julius-randle-and-3-knicks-players-who-could-be-traded-soon-20221115-0007.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Knicks’</a> Derrick Rose.</strong></p>
<h2>NBA Rumors: Lakers Could Trade For Derrick Rose</h2>
<p><strong>(via Heavy)</strong></p>
<p><em>“The Los Angeles Lakers are interested in trading for a $43 million All-Star and former MVP. Heavy.com senior insider Sean Deveney spoke to an Eastern Conference executive who stated <strong>the Lakers ‘have always had interest’ in New York Knicks point guard Derrick Rose, who is available in trade talks.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>‘He is always going to be the good soldier and he might not even want out of New York just because he and Thibs are so tight,’</strong>the exec told Deveney.<strong> ‘But he’s going to want to play at some point and he is going to want a chance to win. The Lakers have always had interest, but there is no way to make that deal work now with the contracts they have.’”</strong></em></p>
<p><span></span></p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>As great as Rose has been to<strong> Tom Thibodeau</strong> over the years, he’s not an integral part of the Knicks’ project. On the other hand, the former MVP has a close relationship with LeBron James, and they even teamed up in Cleveland, so he’d welcome this move.</p>
<p>However, it seems like this trade wouldn’t make the Lakers significantly better, either. So,<strong> Rob Pelinka</strong> better start working overtime to find a way to overhaul their roster before this turns into another wasted season.</p>

<p>Rose is the league’s <strong>youngest MVP </strong>and one of the most electrifying players to ever set foot on an NBA hardwood. He was a high-flying menace that could change gears in the blink of an eye, a one-man fast-break that was for sure going to put you in a poster.</p>
<p>But, now that some of his speed is gone after the years gone by and multiple injuries, some people questioned whether he could actually <strong>give the<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/new-york-knicks-t92326" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> New York Knicks</a> big minutes in the playoffs.</strong></p>

<h2>Emotional Derrick Rose Calls Out Those Who Thought He Was Done</h2>
<p>That’s why Rose, who led the Knicks in scoring with <strong>26 points</strong> and carried them to their first playoff win in 8 years, took a moment to silence his doubters after playing a game-high 39 minutes:</p>
<p><em><strong>“I’ve been dreaming about this moment for a long time,” </strong></em>Rose toldNBA on TNT<em>. “In the past, people said I couldn’t play the minutes and they was worried about it but I knew all along and how much hard work I put into it. In practice, I’ll be on my feet for two hours so you can’t tell me <strong>I can’t play 30 minutes in a game with the way that I’ve changed and the way I play. I’m happy with my endurance and I’m happy we got the win tonight, too.</strong>”</em><span></span></p>

<p>Rose isn’t the frenetic player he once was. He won’t beat you with his speed or athleticism as he used to do, <strong>and that’s perfectly fine</strong>. He’s evolved and is now a more mature and all-around player.</p>
<p>We can all agree that, barring injuries, Rose was poised to become one of the greatest players in NBA history. That’s why he’s<strong> such an easy guy to root for</strong>. He’s been through everything and has always come out on top, and last night’s performance was another example of that.</p>

<p>It’s not unusual to see superstars trying to convince other stars to join them on their teams nowadays. The<strong> modern <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a></strong> is built like that, with <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LeBron James</a> and Anthony Davis in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Lakers,</a></strong><strong>Kawhi Leonard and Paul George in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/los-angeles-clippers-t96054" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Clippers</a></strong>, or<strong> Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/brooklyn-nets-t99901" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brooklyn Nets.</a></strong></p>
<p>Contrary to what most people think, that trend has been around for over a decade now. In fact, multiple teams were trying to get their stars to make a pitch to LeBron James back in 2010 when he was ready to hit free agency and leave the<strong> Cleveland Cavaliers.</strong></p>
<p>Now, 11 years later, former <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/chicago%C2%A0bulls-t101422" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chicago Bulls </a>superstar Derrick Rose </strong>admitted that even he tried to get LeBron James to join his team, even though he wasn’t comfortable with that kind of dynamic.</p>

<h2>Derrick Rose Admits He Tried To Recruit LeBron James</h2>
<p><em><strong>“I did the LeBron recruiting for Chicago</strong>. It was a day after practice, and Bron and Chris Bosh and all of them, we got word — everyone heard it around the league — they were together on one of those banana boat things and were about to team up somewhere,” </em>Rose said, as quoted by FadeawayWorld.</p>
<h2>Rose Says He Felt Betrayed By The Chicago Bulls</h2>
<p>The former MVP thensaid that he felt backstabbed by the team’s front office, as <strong>Gar Forman</strong> made him do a video to recruit James, just to later leak to the press that ‘he wasn’t big on recruiting players’:</p>
<p><em>“Gar Forman, our GM, came to me with the people from the office about putting a video together for Chris Bosh, D-Wade, and Bron. I didn’t fight it. I did the video. I’m sure Bron and those guys saw it. <strong>Then this story came out that I wasn’t big on recruiting. Should I have to say that I recruited?</strong>” </em>he said.</p>
<p><span></span></p>

<div id="relatedNews-70">     </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p><em>“That’s where I’m coming from. It’s a lose-lose. I’m not comfortable saying I’m out there recruiting because I respect my teammates.<strong> Should players have to do that? It doesn’t seem right. When I saw the story was Derrick doesn’t want to recruit. </strong>I felt like, as my partner in this, the Bulls should have come out and said I’d done it. Like, ‘We got it. Chill. He cool.’</em> They didn’t,” Rose concluded.</p>
<p>Derrick Rose would go on to become the league’s<strong> youngest MVP ever</strong>next season and the only player that could take LeBron James down in the Eastern Conference. Sadly, injuries got the best of him and the Bulls are still waiting to make it to the NBA Finals again.</p>

<p>Not many players are able to make the transition of being ‘the man’ to a role player. Their ego, and the way they’ve been used to play the game for years, can end up <strong>condemning their <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> careers to an early death.</strong></p>
<p>On the other hand, those veterans who are able to embrace a different role on their new teams are so valuable in the locker room. They understand that <strong>they can help the team in different ways</strong>, even if they’re not putting up huge numbers as they used to do.</p>
<p>That’s why <strong>Derrick Rose</strong> has been able to take his career back from the ground. He knows he’s no longer a go-to-guy but does all the little things that help a team win basketball games, and he was a massive pickup for the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/new-york-knicks-t92326" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>New York Knicks.</strong></a><span></span></p>

<p>The <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/new-york-knicks-t92326" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>New York Knicks</strong></a> have been fairly better than most people expected them to be to start the season. While they’re a ways away from being a legit contender to make the<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NB</a>A Finals,</strong> they look poised to make their first playoff push in quite some time. And, even though some people were wary about his ability to lead the team, coach <strong>Tom Thibodeau</strong> has quickly given them a defensive identity and the desire to compete at the highest level every single night, even when the outcome isn’t great.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-98">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>Then again, it seems like the Knicks want nothing to do with just moral victories at this point, and they’re reportedly looking to make <strong>several moves</strong> to continue surrounding their young guns with more talent.</p>
<p>That’s why they traded for former <strong>MVP Derrick Rose</strong>, who made his second debut with the franchise last night in their close loss to the <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/miami-heat-t100209" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miami Heat</a>.</strong> Following the game, coach Thibodeau revealed why they made a move so early in the season.</p>
<h2>Tom Thibodeau Says Knicks Traded For Derrick Rose Because He’ll Accept Any Role</h2>
<p><em><strong>“It’s obviously someone I’m familiar with</strong>. We’ve been through a lot of things together. But the biggest part is what I felt he could contribute to our team. I’ve always been partial to good players. If someone is a good player I’m interested. And I think he’ll add a lot to our team. I know his character. I know the type of teammate he is,” </em>Thibodeau told <strong>Marc Berman of The New York Post.</strong></p>
<p><span></span></p>
<div class="ck-jwplayer" data-media-id="6PKmfphY" data-player-id="F20MlldI" id="jwplayer-75">   </div>
<p></p>
<p><em><strong>“He’ll accept any role</strong>. You can start him, you can bring him off the bench, You can play him short minutes, long minutes. He’s telling me this is as healthy as he’s been,”</em> he concluded.</p>
<p>Well, if someone can talk about Derrick Rose, that’s definitely coach Thibodeau. He’s been his boss in every single team he’s coached thus far – <strong>Chicago Bulls, Minnesota Timberwolves</strong>, and New York Knicks – and it’s clear that Rose is completely on board with his philosophy.</p>

Tom Thibodeau reveals why the Knicks really traded for Derrick Rose - Bolavip US

<p>Well, <strong>Tom Thibodeau </strong>did it again. He convinced the<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/new-york-knicks-t92326" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Knicks</a></strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/new-york-knicks-t92326" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> </a>to trade for<strong>Derrick Rose,</strong> his go-to-guy and the player he’s had in every single team he’s coached in the league (<strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/chicago%C2%A0bulls-t101422" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chicago Bulls</a>, Minnesota Timberwolves</strong>, and now Knicks). The former <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> MVP is nowhere near the player he was in his prime but he’s still a never-ending source of instant offense off the bench when he’s healthy, so this was a major pickup for the playoff-hungry Knickerbockers, who aren’t done making moves just yet.</p>
<p>The Knicks have put together an impressive defense under coach Thibodeau. They finally have an identity and some of their young players look poised to break out rather sooner than later. For the first time in years, <strong>Knicks fans can be hopeful.</strong></p>
<p>While they don’t have what it takes to be a championship contender right now, the Knicks are playing their best basketball in a decade and they could only improve<strong> if they keep on making trades.</strong></p>

<h2>New York Knicks To Make More Trades After Landing Derrick Rose</h2>
<p>So, after landing D-Rose, it seems like<strong> Elfrid Payton </strong>could be the odd man out of the team, as several contenders have shown interest in his services and he’s not exactly thriving at the Madison Square Garden.</p>
<p><span></span></p>

<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">At least one team in playoff contention has shown interest in Elfrid Payton. After dealing for Derrick Rose, the Knicks aren’t done on the trade market just yet.</p>

<p>      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </p></div>
<p></p></div>
<p>Trading away Payton would allow <strong>Frank Ntilikina </strong>to work his way back into a starting role, or even allow Rose to be a starter to pair Ntilikina’s tough defensewith standout rookie <strong>Immanuel Quickley.</strong></p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p></div>
<p>Moreover, some teams have inquired about <strong>Julius Randle’s</strong> availability but it doesn’t seem like the Knicks are willing to part with ways right now. At least not for a cheap return, as he’s playing at an All-Star level. Whatever the case it is, expect the Knicks to continue being involved in multiple trade rumors as we approach the trade deadline.</p>

New York Knicks to make another big move after landing Derrick Rose

New York Knicks to make another big move after landing Derrick Rose - Bolavip US

<p>The <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Los Angeles Lakers</strong> </a>are coming off winning their <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/nba-rings-teams-with-most-championships-20200929-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>17th NBA Championship</strong> </a>after missing the playoffs for the past 7 seasons. However, that doesn’t mean that they’re satisfied or done, as they’re likely to be quite aggressive in the offseason<strong> to be even better.</strong></p>
<p>The Lakers know that the <strong>Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Clippers, and Denver Nuggets </strong>will all be better next season, meaning there’s no time to celebrate and that they also need to make a couple of moves.</p>
<p>And once again, <strong>Derrick Rose’s</strong> name has been tied to a reunion with <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>LeBron James</strong></a> at the Staples Center after the Lakers reportedly reached out to the <strong>Detroit Pistons</strong> last season to inquire about his availability.</p>

<p><em>“I think both sides were reluctant when they went into in January, February.<strong> I don’t think the Lakers wanted to make a major move</strong> because they thought they could do something on the buyout market. And I don’t think the Pistons wanted to make a major move because Derrick was happy there,</em>” the GM said.</p>
<p>The executive said that the Lakers weren’t 100% convinced of going all-in last year and only wanted to prevent Rose from joining one of their rivals. Now, however, t<strong>hey can actually afford to make that move:</strong></p>

<p><em>“You know, the Lakers wanted to be involved in case the Clippers got involved or someone else, the Bucks or the Nuggets, whoever. So there was interest but not too serious. <strong>Now, everything has shifted a little</strong>. Now, they’re both in a position to where a deal is much more likely now,”</em> the executive concluded.</p>
<p>Rose is coming off an impressive year with averages of<strong>18.1 points, 2.4 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game on 49% shooting</strong> and he’d be a major upgrade for the Lakers coming off the bench. He’s one of the most beloved and respected veterans around the league and it would be great to see him finally get a ring after an injury-riddled career.</p>
