RedDogNamedClippers 2,362 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) I’m just going to leave this here... No Butler. Thibs, 16 points at SG (Starting). Of course all dependent on Butler and who they get in return. Edited September 30, 2018 by RedDogNamedClippers Error. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tongs 1,316 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Eh.. May as well start him off at as a streamer, candidate for first-cut for some early-season FA gold. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dirty Little Birdie 1,141 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Anyone scooping Rose up? I play in a points league where I feel like he will hold significant value if/when Butler is traded. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StifleTower2 2,525 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I got him as a throw in to a trade and I'm not going to drop him until I see a few games out of him. FWIW he could be rosterable in 16 team leagues, not expecting much but if he scores in the teens with a couple threes and/or assists then good enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pirate 905 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Trash. No steals, no assists, no ft’s, not even that many threes. Basically he’s good for nothing. Even for points. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oladipo_is_MVP 8 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Anyone agrees that Rose looks like a better option than Teague in pg spot? When Teague is on the court, he doesn’t cut, doesn’t pick for others, he is just sitting at the top of the key waiting for a mid-range jumper or watching KAT posting up others or watching wiggin butler playing one on one. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ellejamil 840 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 *I actually think he could be a decent 6th man. Start Tyus instead* 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raiiny 511 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Rose this game has almost more attempts than Wiggins and Towns combined. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

heero78 77 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Is he worth a flyer now? He's obviously the 6th man coming off the bench. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That being said, it is a contract year. And there are many examples of players who magically start balling out in a contract year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HelloMelo 74 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Here is my take on DRose: Last year, Tyreke came off of the bench in Memphis, and had a HIGH usage rate. That amounted to a lot of counting stats in limited minutes and he had a great year. I think DRose is this years Tyreke Evans. Maybe not as good, but similar. He has a high usage rate off the bench. He is always in attack mode every time he touches the ball, has his coach's confidence, and definitely has a green light. Plus, if Jimmy does get traded this year, BIG IF, you cant help but think DRose is helped by it. Thibs said today that if Rose is healthy hes one of the best players in the league. Of course he may get injured, but id ride him until the wheels fall off. Low risk, mid-high reward. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
panthers93 559 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 i don't think the reward is that high because all he'll do well is score (he doesn't shoot 3s that well either) but he's a more fun guy to roster than Jeremy lamb so f--- it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bballshinobi 1,459 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Context matters though... Tyreke had high usage in Memphis because Memphis had nobody. They didn't have any NBA caliber guards after Conely went down. The team was basically Marc Gasol and 11 fringe NBA-G League players. Rose is not going to get this type of usage unless Jimmy gets traded AND Wiggins+Teague get hurt. 9 minutes ago, HelloMelo said: Here is my take on DRose: Last year, Tyreke came off of the bench in Memphis, and had a HIGH usage rate.

I don't get the man crush, Thibs needs an intervention. I think we can count on Rose getting fed minutes until he breaks down again. When healthy, prior to he injuries, he was. I am even not sure if Thibs truly believes what he is saying. But if so, the delusional part of this is Thibs is acting as though the pre-injury Rose still exists as long as he doesn’t have any current injuries. Unfortunately he doesn’t exist anymore.

bballshinobi 1,459 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Hey Thibs qualified his statement with "as long as he's healthy" without quantifying "one of the best players". He could be meaning to say "one of the 200 best players in the league", you know Quote Link to post Share on other sites
