Kyyle23 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I dont think it is the Cardio as much as the physical beating. From everything we have been reading, Rose has been working out like a madman, I think his cardio is probably tip top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve9347 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Sources tell ESPN's Marc Stein that the Grizzlies and Raptors have a trade in place that would send Rudy Gay and Hamed Haddadi to Toronto in exchange for Ed Davis and Jose Calderon. The Grizzlies plan to flip Calderon to a third team, with the Pistons and Mavericks at the front of the line, possibly sending Tayshaun Prince, Corey Maggette or Vince Carter to Memphis in return for Calderon. Gay's value should go up since he'll be the primary option in Toronto, with Kyle Lowry also getting a boost since he'll no longer be sharing time. This also means that guys like DeMar DeRozan and Alan Anderson could take a hit, while the loss of Davis will also help with the log jam of bigs in Toronto. However they will now have Haddadi to add to the mix of Amir Johnson, Aaron Gray, Jonas Valanciunas and Andrea Bargnani once everyone is healthy. Calderon's value depends on where he lands, but Detroit (Brandon Knight) and Dallas (Darren Collison) both look like timeshare situations, which is not great news for his owners. And Davis' value just took a major hit since he'll be playing behind Zach Randolph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I know that it is successful, but I still believe Thibs needs to lay off the whip in some of these games and give Deng/Noah considerably more rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmteam Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Call this Hoosier fandom if you want, but I'd really like to see the Bulls draft Victor Oladipo. Plays with great energy, awesome defensively, relentless worker...the kinda guy who fans love right away. Like a smaller but quicker Jimmy Butler, I guess. If he continues to play like he has, Oladipo will probably end up in the later half of the first (though I did see one mock that had him as a late lottery pick).

It's a bit of a homer call but defensively he could be a nice player to pair with Rose and he has the quickness to score in the NBA. I would take it.

Sounds like a smaller version of Ronnie Brewer, athletic, good defensive two guard with no real jump shot. I rather the Bulls go for a scorer at the 2 or a backup defensive center to replace Mohammed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have no problem with the bulls getting a defensive SG in the draft, as long as he's a better scoring threat than Ronnie Brewer was. It might even encourage them to get rid of Hinrich's money if possible. The other option is to try to fill it with another version of Korver or Hamilton, either a 3 point shooter or someone who might have something left in the tank, and I'd guess Thibs would be more likely to play a guy who he could count on for defense.

I rather the Bulls go for a scorer at the 2 or a backup defensive center to replace Mohammed. I would say that's a horrible description of him. He's shooting 53 percent from 3 and has been the best player on one k the best teams in the country. Ronnie Brewer and his non existent jump shot has zero to do with Oladipo.

He's shooting 53 percent from 3 and has been the best player on one k the best teams in the country. Ronnie Brewer and his non existent jump shot has zero to do with Oladipo. Small volume of 3 PT shots and I'd bet he was fairly wide open for most of them. If he was actually that good at shooting he would be a projected top 5 pick. Someone like Ben Gordon who was 6'2, couldn't play the point, was a poor defender, and never shot over 43.5% from 3 in college went #3 overall. If you look at Oladipo's jump shot it doesn't look all that smooth and I doubt he'll be a plus offensive player in the NBA his first few years. Can he develop into one though? Sure, but right now his offense (including his jump shot) is the main reason he's projected to go in the teens, just like Ronnie Brewer did.
