Interesting that a guy who made big dough bites at a vet minimum salary.

Next year he should do better if he can stay healthy

Not a bad deal for the Cavs given the Irving situation.

Very true Beat. How many more injuries can this guy sustain before they put him out to pasture

Great deal for the Cavs. Minimum bucks for decent stats. Played in 79% of the games last 2 years,averaged about 31 minutes per game last 2 years and 18 points per game last year. 28 years old.

Quite true. He did stay pretty healthy last year but his injury history is the reason he went from big bucks to a 12 month min contract.

That's the last 2 years that he has played in 79% of the games. Not the player he once was - but pretty decent for minimum dollars.

$2.1 M? I first thought it was $21 M. How low the mighty have fallen. Meanwhile, where did Rajon land and for how much?

It's funny that Kyrie Irving wants to be traded to the Knicks after DRose just left the Knicks and went to Cleveland for the Vet's minimum.  That tells me that DRose figured out that, after "being the man" in Chicago and NY, it isn't all it's cracked up to be.  It also tells me that neither love nor money could keep DRose at that disfunctional mess on E34th street, the one Kyrie asked to be traded to.

Has DRose has now become a truly humble man?  Is there such a thing in a hyper-competitive person like a professional athlete?  The talks with Rose might even have been the final spark that made Kyrie want to make it ABUNDANTLY clear to Cav's management that he was not just unhappy but wanted a trade and, maybe, this signing was the Cavalier management's response to Kyrie.
