Derrick Rose's career is one of the NBA's great tragedies. Every new development saddens me.

Knicks will sign Dwight and he'll be sluggish getting out of the way on a Rose drive to the basket and Rose will shatter to dust again. Just wait.

Tim Hardaway Jr was bad, I said it at the time. Jerian Grant is bad without much hope for improvement and I said it for two seasons now. RoLo seems underrated and I'm not sure I want to lose him.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

After his play the last few years, I'm pretty comfortable in calling the winner of any Derrick Rose trade is the team that got rid of Derrick Rose.
