NBA Trade Rumors: Chicago Bulls Moving Derrick Rose Within This Season?

Will point guard Derrick Rose part ways with the Chicago Bulls soon? Rumors suggest that there is already a rift on their relationship and letting go of the former MVP seems like the best solution.

According to Vincent Goodwill of CSN Chicago via Bleacher Report, Derrick Rose is already looking forward to his free agency in 2017 which is never a good sign.

"But when you talk about that much money the only thing you can do is prepare for it. I'm trying to prepare, not only myself, but my family. And I'm doing this all for my son," Rose said.

"Like I said, I'm thinking about his future. Even though we're alright, we're comfortable, when you talk about that x-amount of dollars, I think it raises everyone's eyebrows, so there's nothing wrong with being over-prepared."

His lack of production was imminent in their first few games and some analysts saw it as lack fo passion to play.

But, in their game against the Oklahoma City Thunder last Thursday night, Rose exploded for 29 points and seven assists which might probably silent some critics, for now.

Rose also said some bizarre things and his teammate center Joakim Noah also noticed that from the former MVP.

"Sometimes he says crazy sh*t, gets him in trouble," Joakim Noah said via K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune. "But at the end of the day, he's a competitor."

Rose also has some off-court issues surrounding him as he has an ongoing case of sexual assault. His chemistry with Jimmy Butler is also said to be shaky as during the off-season, the other star said he has no respect for Derrick Rose's work ethic.

Will all of this lead to an eventual break-up? Stay tuned.
