Just because they couldn't remain teammates, it doesn't mean they can't remain friends.
New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose reunited with his former Chicago Bulls backcourt mate Jimmy Butler on Saturday at Dodger Stadium, where they - along with Derrick Rose, Jr. - took in the Los Angeles Dodgers' 3-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs.
Now an Olympic gold medalist, Butler said he knew before the former MVP was traded that one of them was going to be shipped off, and maintained he has "so much respect" for his teammate of the past five seasons.
