According to the New York Post, Isiah Thomas still has interest in acquiring Jalen Rose from the Toronto Raptors.  Any deal would likely involve Penny Hardaway.

"Growing up from inner-city Detroit, I would just hope guys like Isiah Thomas, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird would even know my name," Rose said before his explosive performance. "These are people who've been influential in my life on and off the court. It's been a blessing."

Rose has three years left on his pact, and forward Donyell Marshall is also on the block with Thomas looking to acquire both with a package including Kurt Thomas and Penny Hardaway, the New York Daily News is reporting.

The Daily News reports that Thomas and Raptors GM Rob Babcock spoke Wednesday in an attempt to hammer out a deal.
