The Chicago Bulls traded point guard Derrick Rose to the New York Kicks for six basketball racks. The Kicks will take on his remaining $21.5 contract.
The basketball racks are only three years old and have not missed a practice or game. This is the opposite of the often injured Rose who even talked about a contract extension while recovering from a major knee operation and missing most of the past four years.
The basketball racks will be shipped to Chicago next week, and Rose will arrive in New York this weekend in an ‘Extra Fragile’ box.
Knicks President, Phil Jackson, said, “It was tough to let those racks go. They were very reliable, always at the arena, never complained, not even a squeak. They just did their job.”
Chicago Bull fans are anxious to greet the racks at O’Hare International Airport Tuesday afternoon. New York Knicks fans were told to cover as much of the city with bubble wrap as possible.
