DBAHO Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 21, 2010 -> 07:40 PM) The Bulls shouldn't care about contracts from now on, aside from what they're worth in trades. They're now over the cap forever after Noah's extension, and it'll get even worse once a new CBA is decided on, because the first order of business then is a large salary boost for this Derrick Rose kid. Expiring contracts are only useful to the Bulls now if they're trading them or if they want to save money under the tax, just like for your Magic. Hamilton shouldn't hurt the Bulls on defense and probably makes them stronger there, while replacing a couple guys who can't shoot with a guy who can shoot sometimes. He's 35% for his career from 3 which is better than what the Bulls are putting out there at SG right now. My concern about Hamilton is that he's 30, but he's been in the league for 12 seasons now, so he's an "old" 30 if you will. And he's quite injury prone, just reminds me a lot of the Vince Carter situation where I think Hamilton's best basketball is behind him. I think the Bulls just need to give Brewer the starter's job for 2 months and then make a move at the deadline if it doesn't work out. To me as Soxfan1 said, Rip's a guy who's fantastic coming off screens, and he'll shoot the occasional 3 but that isn't really his game. Affalo would be perfect as Zoom said, but he seems like a keeper for Senver now, someone who should part of their core after Melo departs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 KC Johnson on the score this morning said that we should want no part of Rip, he is done. He kind of hinted that the Bulls FO feels the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan1 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 22, 2010 -> 11:06 AM) I immediately think of that NBA Finals victory over the Utah Jazz. 96-54 (42 point victory). f***in' A that was hilarious. Absolutely. When I think of an NBA ass whooping, I think of that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Larry Brown bites the dust in Charlotte. I actually think he and Joe Dumars kind of need each other right now. Maybe Jordan will start listening to offers for the likes of Wallace and Jackson and go into a full scale rebuilding mode. Certainly not going to contend in the Southeast anytime soon.

Steve9347 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 21, 2010 -> 03:25 PM) God I hope he's in the dunk contest. I haven't watched one in about 4 years and haven't cared to. I'd clear my schedule to catch that show. When asked if he was interested in taking part in this year's dunk contest, Blake Griffin responded: "That would be cool. If it's something that the league wants me to do, I'll probably try to do it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
