MCW for Simmons?

You just named 3/4 things that Kyle is good at.

This thread is about Simmons too. Rent free in TGY thread...

I think Simmons is useful as a Belinelli lite, sponges some regular season minutes to keep Manu and Tony fresh but shouldn't be near the floor past the 1st round of the playoffs.

Trade was completed, so there goes that pipe dream.

jesus, the Bulls are trying to create the worst shooting roster in the history of the NBA

It makes me wonder if they are tanking. At some point I guess they will trade Jimmy Butler. They brought D'wade to take Jimmy's spot after that trade, and to mentor all of their youngsters. Wild guess.

dammnit man. Can we please get someone that we NEED that isn't 30 years old yet?

At this point, Simmons/JLC can net MCW. (Pop said the depth would suffer if Simmons/Kyle were put in the doghouse & he went w/ a shorter rotation but MCW would be a rotation player so he's essentially replacing Simmons)

They more than likely would have preferred Snell, but unless they have another trade in the offing (Vaughn?), it looks like you were right about them not being concerned with their lack of point guard depth. They should be though.

wonder if Simmons can still even fetch a second rounder after he gets to train-wreck it for the first couple months of season..

Have to give you props, I think you are being sincere in this thought, but a mental image popped in my head:
