Chris Sheridan is reporting that Derrick Rose has told management he would be in favor of sending Carlos Boozer and another player to the Lakers for Pau Gasol.
Frankly, I don't buy it.
First of all, it's not something Rose would do. Derrick has said repeatedly that he won't recruit free agents, so why would he go to management to try to broker a trade? It's just not his style.
Plus, I talked to someone in the know who confirmed my suspicions and told me the report is straight out of left field.
I doubt that Chris Sheridan knows anyone that knows Rose. Its hard to imagine that Chris Sheridan would have a spy (source) amonng Rose's closes friends. Chris Sheridan has a better chance of running through Englewood, hollering I have just won 300 mil and not getting attacked and that ticket taken than for Roose to recruit a player and trade one of his teammates, out iof left field this is a straight out LIE
