Trading Rose makes the most sense practically, even if he steadily improved in his first full season in four years. As Rose reminded us on day one of training camp, free agency arrives after next season. With the salary cap increasing this summer, the Bulls owe it to themselves to see if they can find a team willing to take on the final $21.3 million of Rose's deal. A change of scenery might revive Rose. Shop Butler around the league, but the four years and nearly $79 million left on his contract make it more likely the Bulls will bank on him growing into the leadership role that fit him so awkwardly this year.
