Thibs getting fired by Bulls was blessing in disguise for him..he was hurting his reputation with a clearly expired core that was going nowhere..

It's a product of the Bulls media, being perennially overhyped due to the names on their roster, rather than their actual production..Rose is one of the worst starting PGs in the NBA, Gasol can't guard anybody, Mirotic is severely overrated, Noah is finished, and their bench is meh..Butler is legit, but that's all they have..

They will win games when Rose and his shitty jump shots are going in, but that isn't getting you anywhere against playoff defenses..

Seems like Bonner would have to be waived along w/ Simmons since the Spurs are over the cap & McLemore's salary is double that of Kyle's: http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=o9575zl

I wouldn't mind entertaining the trade next season when the cap goes up.

He's one of those guys that could get buckets but wouldn't stick on a team b/c he puts ZERO effort when it comes to playing defense ala Nick Young. He also used to clash w/ coaches & is always out of shape. He makes JR Smith seem like a coaches dream. Otherwise, he was a better scorer than Harden when he came into the league.

Harden/Lawson/Thornton might be the worst defensive guard rotation in the league. They could use Thornton kind of like how the Warriors use Barbosa by giving him spot minutes otherwise Harden/Thornton/Lawson on the floor together in the postseason:lmao

Oh, I know, I was a fan of his in New Orleans earlier in his career..

I just think it's really random that the Rockets have decided to use him as a starter, all of a sudden, considering we know enough about him as a player in the NBA:lol..

They don't have a starting PF b/c T-Jones/D-Mo are both injured so they decided to play small-ball since Lance is the Clippers starting SF & Ariza also proved he can guard Blake w/ help in last season postseason series.

This is the same team that picked up Josh Smith off waivers & made him their starting center:lol when Dwight/D-Mo/T-Jones were out w/ injury.

T-Jones was starting until he got injured then they had to mix & match both the center/PF spot b/c Dwight was also "resting". Their frontline is a complete mess but they are overloaded w/ wing players & guards.
