whos next elton brand and coach k
You're faster than me ace3g!
good call ^
sons J.J. is a solid player. don't let his skin color fool you.
They see in him a Steve Kerr. He's probably even a worse defender than Kerr.
I thought they already signed him???
Oh wait, they did!
The Bulls signed free-agent guard Kyle Korver(notes) to a three-year, $15 million contract on Friday.
Korver and Red .
LMAO
Which one of them is going to guard Wade? JJ can't play Ray Allen in every series.
Idiots should have just waited before jumping the gun and trading Hinrich, who coincidentally guards Wade the best out of anyone in the league.
Bulls are well on their way guys. They have a ton of great pieces right now and a quality coach.
They still need to get rid of Deng and get some quality size. My gut is telling me that is what they are thinking of though. Getting Korver/Red was a VERY smart move if they plan on gunning for a superstar SF, they will have the perfect options to kick out to for the open 3 ball. I also want to see some more size on that team, simply too small to defend teams like LAL. They need at least one quality big alongside Noah that can bang down low.
Come on Bulls keep adding guys and destroy the Heat!
Not as bad a defender ...
NOT as good a shooter either ...
Solid move ...
Rose can drive and kick to Deng for 18-20 footers ...
And to 3point shooters Re and Korver ...
Bulls will be good.
Great point. I think Deng though a good player is the weak link out of Boozer, Noah, Rose ...Korver and JJ fit huge needs.
Deng is not a bad player just overpaid and ROse is thr only creator/play-maker ...they Need another driver ...
Re is garbage. He'll never be worth what the Bulls are paying for him.
Shows how much you know about the game of basketball.
they finally have shooting they so desperately needed. rose still cant shoot but now he should have more room to drive

Don't get too pumped, Bulls' fans, on Re -- nothing official from Orl, but other GMs expect Magic to match.
Orlando has to match that offer. With all the money they throw around, not matching that would be idiotic. Re is the most compe ive player on the team and might have been the team's second best player in the playoffs.
Knowing Otis Smith he'll probably be all, "They offered him how much? that! I'm gonna blow that offer out of the water. Say 4 years $30 mil. Take that ers hahahaha"
Thanks, but they didn't overpay enough. They needed to make it pretty excessive. Oh well... sucks to be the Bulls. Could have been a great addition. Thibodeau did well with Allen on defense, and Allen is similar, so he was ideal.
Magic are really overpaying a lot of players. I'm assuming if they match Re Barnes is gone.
wtf didnt they just keep hinrich? he has at leasts size and can play d...
this is stupid payin a guy 20/3 just to shoot 3s?
Because they wanted to clear cap space in hopes of landing Lebron which failed.....
Re is a volume shooter that shoots best when given plenty of shots, and with Rose and Boozer, he should get a ton. Wouldn't surprise me if he past the 14/15 ppg mark this next season if he's on the Bulls. Dude is a shooter and he averaged 10 ppg last season in just 22 mpg and on just 3 attempts from range. You increase that to 6 and there's the necessary attempts to hit that mark. Also, his defense isn't that terrible. He hustles, and has enough quickness to hang with several types of opponents. Twixt Gibson and Noah, the middle will be secure, so he won't need to keep the opponent out of the lane, just pressure them enough for pull ups. I think his defense is very similar to Allen, and while he was the weakest of the five starting Celtics, he played decent enough defense, even on the likes of Kobe.
Off Topic, but JMarkJohns, did you get a chance to see the Rockets Suns SL game yesterday? What did you think about Jordan Hill's game?
