NFT: Derrick Rose signs with Cavaliers.

Does the rich get richer or is he all done?

Seems like this is becoming formulaic -

1. Lose championship.
2. Sign high-priced talented free-agent.
3. Win championship.

Wash, Rinse, ... repeat!

Not very "high priced" though.

Heh: a few months ago he thought he was getting a 9 figure contract. How the mighty have fallen.

Ill weep for poor Derrick tonight.

It's intriguing

When you consider Rose's relative success with the Knicks, the fact that the Cavs may be the teamin the NBA with the least need for a point guard who distributes, and then there's the Carmelo angle. Does he see this as a catalyst to go to Cleveland?

Such an interesting off-season. Most "active" one I can remember.

At least the Knicks
