I want to laugh at this... but the welling tears prevent me...

Marc Stein:

"The Timberwolves will try to sign Derrick Rose if he clears waivers after his looming release by Utah, according to league sources."

Q... Q???... Q!

Oh dear god, somebody please check on Q!!!!!!!!

I thought this team was done with country clubs.

If he cuts into tyus minutes will be so mad

Let's wait and see if it actually happens first. Remember wasn't it Stein said last year Thibs was all wanting Rose bad and several other said Thibs ultimately was the one that passed on a deal for him?

They are different players but his role (scorer off the bench) seems like a less what this team needs than what Crawford already does. If Rose is just the replacement for Bazz and Brooks seeing minutes at times...sure I guess. You would think the Bucks would have some interest since the basically have 1 PG available to play for them the next few weeks.

Agreed. And that's partly why I find it laughable... if not slightly scary.

Former Bulls are STILL linked to Thibs at every chance.

Sweet!! Go wolves. Hahaha. He's better than Brooks at least.

God, please just make this semi-annual rumor go away!

In all seriousness... what did Utah get out of this?

Just a woefully regressing Jae Crowder?

Never underestimate cheap.

....and they were already limited in terms of guys that can score in volume, so now they swapped one of their few shot makers for a role player. Interesting. May be they just felt Hood will never stay healthy (?) and Crowder is on a pretty cheap deal.

Oh, and they are in the middle of a 7-game win streak!
