ESPN is reporting the Wolves have asked about Derrick Rose.
I am assuming the trade would involve Rubio and Muhammad.
I for one do not want Rose and his attitude near this team. I am all for moving Rubio and Shabazz though.

Ugh, hate it but if it moves cap to surround KAT with a legit stud, I guess I'm in.

I don't think it helps us improve a ton. Rose has been MVP before and is still averaging over 17ppg, however.
With that being said, he is a FA this summer and is injury plagued in his career. I'd rather the Wolves pursue Shumpert, as previously reported.

Shumpert is more of a 2 way player, which we need. Offense isn't our issue, defense is. Rose doesn't help. I see Rose as nothing more then a half season rental, and lets be honest......Rose really isn't going to help us anymore then not having him.

Yeah, I think it's just to clear cap space and because Thibs doesn't want Rubio.

I feel like Rose is already at the only place dumb enough to pay him 21 million.

I'd make the trade, waive Rose and let Dunn/Tyus play point for the rest of the year. If they stink, fine -- draft Ball. If they're good -- mission accomplished and you have cash to throw at a free agent.

I don't get why Minneosta wouldn't want Rubio. He's a great fit next to Wiggins and Towns. Sure he can't shoot, but he's a great defender and everyone knows his play making ability. Dunn has been down right terrible this year, he shouldn't be anywhere near a starting lineup.

Rose hasn't exactly been good either, it seems.
