Would you trade for Rip? I wouldnt.

 

I would. If Kirk is making the move to SG when Derrick is back then we're 4 deep at SG. Rip-Kirk-Belinelli-Cook. I was happy with what I saw out of Belinelli and would hate to see him get buried.

To get under the cap? I would.

 

Now they will do everything they can to not be in the luxury tax again next year. I believe every year you are in the tax, it gets more and more expensive... So this just hurts them going forward.

He said would you trade FOR Rip, not trade him. Especially since the team acquiring him would either need to be under the cap or have a trade exception.

It's after lunch, I guess I should pay more attention or just take a nap.

They'll amnesty Boozer simply because it will be cheaper in the long run.

After a brief conversation with the police, World Peace put on his Cookie Monster pajamas and accompanied them outside.

 

"At first when I seen the police, I was like, 'What the hell is going on?'" World Peace said. "I just got finished watching 'Zero Dark Thirty' or whatever that movie is. I'm like, 'I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming. Is there a terrorist in the building? Do y'all need my help?'"

 

 

Getting J.J. Reddick would have been awesome. He's having an awesome year now that he gets to take on more of the scoring load.

Reggie Rose said Derrick Rose told his brother to say:

 

Derrick Rose is still out with a knee injury but the Chicago Bulls superstar is getting closer to a return. However, a new wrench may have emerged in those plans. The trade deadline passed without the team doing anything and it led to Reggie Rose, the brother of Derrick, ripping the front office. He even hinted that a lack of moves could keep his brother from returning this season.

Is anyone else starting to get annoyed with Derrick Rose?

Now he's bench material behind Ellis and Jennings.

Yup, it's a waste too. Milwaukee didn't need any more combo guards.

Just play him at the 3 and go with the no-defense, 3-pointstravaganza

Rose's brothers have always been annoying.

 

I do agree with them though, the FO should have done something. They're so unimaginative.

A. f*** Reggie Rose

 

B. If Derrick feels that way he should have f***ing recruited two summers ago rather than refusing to

DRose has pretty much said he wants to be the guy.

I hope the Rose family doesn't end up being like the Guillen's

He should have told Chris Bosh that DWade and LeBron won't share the ball with you.

What were they going to do this deadline? There was virtually no one of interest traded or available, and the Bulls really didn't have anything of value they could trade anyway that would have been worth it.

 

The offseason gets more interesting. You can amnesty Boozer to free up room under the cap and Hamilton becomes more attractive as an expiring contract. From there you and wheel and deal a little bit. The biggest need will still be a 2, but building around a core of Rose/#2/Deng/Gibson/Noah has potential to be an excellent starting group that can continue to play shutdown defense.

I don't know, trade for J.J. Redick? It's not like Milwaukee gave up anything worthwhile.

I know he did say that, but I have a hard time thinking that his brother says anything along those lines without input from Derrick. I have this gut feeling (nothing more) that Rose is one who will say one thing to avoid conflict/not ruffle feathers, but feel differently, and as a result, feel as if he had been somehow wronged.

Edited by Swingandalongonetoleft

You know what? I dont care if Rose feels that way. I feel that way. I want Chicago to be a destination for free agents and I want the FO to try and pull off craziness and quit playing it safe. Even if it backfires, you still have D Rose.

Hey Reggie, remember when you said there was no way your brother missed the entire season?

B. Totally B.

Aaron Rodgers ‏@AaronRodgers12

 

JJ Redick to the Bucks!!!! Love it

 

f*** off Reggie
