It seems that Derrick Rose might sign with the Cleveland Cavaliers this offseason. This sounds insane, but it’s the kind of move a team makes when it doesn’t have a general manager. So many questions come to mind. Have things gotten so grim that this is GM LeBron James’s desperate final grasp to strengthen the Cavs roster?
They have no money or assets, so the cheap player that Derrick Rose is looks to be their best way to go at this point. Rose and Irving both play the same position, however the Cavaliers have not been clear about a possible lineup. Could LeBron actually be considering flipping Kyrie for a wing player and acquiring Derrick Rose as a downgrade of a point guard? This seemed like it would be a throwaway season for the Cavaliers if that were to happen.
