Even Derrick Rose wanted to get the hell away from Ja. Doesn't want to get brought in as an accessory next season.

It sure seems like point guard talent is more available this off season than ever before. I believe, Dennis Smith Markelle Fultz and Ish Smith are still available. Now Derrick Rose can be added to the list.

I would support a Fultz signing if we weren't overloaded at PG/SG. He was a bust as a #1 overall pick but he showed some skills in Orlando, albeit taking a step back last season with Suggs taking a leap forward. I think Fultz can be a decent combo guard off the bench for someone.

The NBA is a copycat league. Most others took notice of what Minnesota did and also Dallas, Indiana, and others by moving away from small ball and heading more towards size since you can't really copy Boston's blueprint quickly but the others you can. The Celtics were the ultimate case of letting it play out, shuffling role players around their core pieces.
