Heat announcers thought it was a good trade.
. Yeah I’m sure they do 😂
Aren't we just quoting reactions without knowing what is actually going on?

I’m not quoting anything. I’m going by what I know if Rose and since he was here already. Honestly there is no good reason to bring him here to play him big minutes when we have IQ and otters who can actually defend. Even his offense is t what close to what it once was. If we got a shooter I would have been happy but Rose makes zero sense. Usually in a trade you have some fans who like it. This trade pretty much unanimously is not liked which tells you something 😂
This trade is pretty much unanimously unlike by a freaking message board. Marriage even called out people treating it as a "travesty" about 7 posts up. This is literally people crying because of the player, not realizing it isn't the player who was here years ago. He has been a bench player for YEARS now. He is being coached by a coach he has respect for.
Literally everything is different than it was before.
I am not even saying I like the trade. To me it is an eh trade to solidify the bench, it is a trade trading a useless piece for a usable one. Nothing more nothing less. There are no signs this is the apocalypse some guys here are making this out to be.
I think you’re misinterpreting. Nobody is saying “it’s an apocalypse”. We simply feel it makes no sense which is a legit thought. Rose is going to probably Decent minutes and won’t be surprised if he starts. Anyway let’s just agree to disagree and move on
If you want to move on fine, but this thread is about the Knicks acquiring Rose, right?
On that note this is an open post directed at everyone but you...
Granted he isn't the shooter that they need, but the other need the Knicks had was scoring. The Knicks just acquired a player known for his scoring, whose role has been off the bench for years now. They traded a piece they had less than no use for and that is not any of pick that everyone wants to keep. They upgraded their talent level for minimal cost. And possibly, IMO, opened up an avenue for Quickley to start with minimal pressure of orchestrating the offense while not losing scoring off the bench.
Regarding Thibs, People worried about Gibson stealing minutes he hasn't. Everyone is crying about Payton starting but this team is as I type 11-13-a record no one thought they would have-with him starting. They are playing competitively every game, even against teams they have no business competing against.
Please, anyone but StarksEwing1 since he has moved on, tell me where I am wrong.
