    Supposedly Jalen Rose is negotiating a buyout with the Knicks. He seems more like a JVG than a Morey guy, plus why not put 2 fab 5ers on the same team to see if we can tempt fate.

    He obviously will come cheap if he gets a buyout since no one has any real money, and he would be a good insurance policy if someone like Snyder turns out to be a complete loss.

    jalen rose would be an amazing option.. assuming he would take the paycut to come here. a legit 3rd scorer/playmaker who is clutch too. character would not be an issue with me.

    If he comes REALLY cheap, then maybe. But at this stage of his career, his D is gone, and he can only shoot those midrange Js. If Kirk is a bust, Head will get more playing time than JR for sure.

    I personally cannot stand Jalen Rose's style of play. Besides, I like VSpan, Snyder, Luther, etc much better than him at this point in his career.

    How is Jalen Rose a JVG type of player? I don't see that at all.

    at 33 years of age Rose masy not have all that much left in the tank. 2-3 years ago I would have been all over bringing him to the Rocks.

    But not now.

    IF he would come really cheap and IF he would be ok coming off the bench, then sure.

    Let's see, an 30-something guy who hasn't been good for a couple of years, gets cut but his current team, available possibly for cheap...

    Anyone remember that Derek Anderson guy from last year?

    Damn Newbies. Where is your Rockets History?

    Does the Kiss of Death mean nothing to you?
    How many times must I repeat that Jalen Rose can never wear a Rockets uniform.

    Here's an idea, fire JVG and replace him with Kermit Washington.
