Rose is back 1 year 2.1 mil.

(Hard to complain from my point of view)

I'm glad this vermin deal is wrapped up already to take away the suspense of how much we would pay him. Maybe there were no other offers but still maybe some credit to Rose for getting this deal done now so the Wolves can go about their business of improveninf the team with whatever money they have left.

At least we didn't pay more than the vet minimum. Thibodeau's the most near-sighted NBA executive I've ever seen. Time to pursue Noah. But honestly, I won't complain about the Rose signing. If he can hold up physically, he can help. If it were me, I'd be shopping Jeff Teague.

He's also still making bank from Adidas so maybe he's finally accepting that his money is mostly gonna come from off the court and he just needs to play and stay healthy.

If he wanted Rose so bad, why the hell did he pursue Jeff Teague so aggressively?

I don't want Noah here. I think Crunch is the only mascot this team needs.

Because Teague is the better player. Teague has been super healthy throughout his career. Also why is it bad to have both of them if Rose plays well. Also Im guessing Rose plays almost only SG with the Wolves.

Because neither wanna defend well and Rose can't shoot and Teague seemingly doesn't wanna shoot.


because Rose at SG kinda renders Josh Okogie useless in year 1. Might as well buy an apartment in Iowa.

These signings are all window dressing anyway. This upcoming season will all come down to whether Towns wants to play defense and whether Wiggins wants to permanently be considered wasted talent.

That second paragraph I 100% agree with. Just think the ceiling is super high when Teague is playing real well
