Message: [QUOTE="Melancer46, post: 1797916, member: 1674"] If Rose doesn't improve from last year's play, he's just an inefficient chucker at this point. BPM, VORP, WS/48, etc. all believe that Calderon was better than Rose last year. Rose was less efficient scoring the ball than MCW, except he took a lot of shots and doesn't provide anything else. Even when he was "good" down the stretch, his TS% was only 52% (for comparison's sake, MCW is at about 50% and Calderon was at 57%. If the move was simply about trying to have as much cap space as possible for next year's free agents class, I can get it, but in that case, signing Dwight or Joakim Noah to long-term deals (and undoubtedly more money than Robin Lopez was getting) makes no sense.
