Cavaliers, Derrick Rose discussing contract Author: Joe Vardon Publication:
Cleveland.com
CLEVELAND — The Cavaliers are in discussion with former NBA MVP and free agent
Derrick Rose on a one-year contract, multiple league sources told cleveland.com.
Rose, 28, is a point guard and three-time All-Star who won the MVP with the
Bulls in the 2010-11 season. He averaged 18 points and 4.4 assists in 64 games
for the New York Knicks before suffering a season-ending meniscus tear last
year.
The most the Cavs can offer Rose is $2.5 million from what’s remaining of the
team’s mid-level exception to the salary cap. Cleveland could also offer him the
veteran’s minimum — which for him would be $2.1 million. – CLICK HERE to read

CLEVELAND — Kyrie Irving said he wants to create a “self-sustaining community”
that would live off a giant piece of farmland he plans to buy with his fortune.
Irving, the Cavs’ star point guard, unveiled his strange designs during his
appearance on the Short Story Long podcast when host Chris “Drama” Pfaff asked
if he had any “big aspirations” for the next 20 years or so.
Irving, 25, who is entering the third season of his $94 million contract
extension with the Cavs, said he and unnamed others are in fact already working
on his plan to, in essence, build an Epcot-style future world in which a select
few can live healthy lifestyles without having to pay for it. – CLICK HERE to
