Really? Wow...Stacey doesn't seem like the type. I followed him on twitter for a little bit, but he tweets too much obnoxious shit and unfollowed.

when does trading season open?

sounds like CJ, Brewer and Kyle could all be dangled as expiring contracts, or cheap pick ups for other teams.

i wouldn't mind Kyle coming back, but i would like to see him be more consitent. he can hit 5 in a row from downtown, then the next game, clank 5 in a row. maybe we can trade him for Ray Allen. i'm half serious :?

Brewer has to go.

Is Boozer going to toughen up for next season?

I think we had the same problem with consistency from Kyle when he was here in Utah. When he's on though, he can hit that 3-ball.

Boozer improved on the D side as the season went on, still not great, but at least he tried, but like kyle, booz is streaky from the field. he can go 8-10 one game, then 1-10 the next. :fp: i'd love to trade him for something decent and put Taj in the starting line up. his offense is just as good and his D is 100 times better.

With a coach who is so focused on his team being defensively sound, it makes me wonder how Boozer's D isn't as good as it could be. He's got the body to be more dominant than he is, I think.

Agreed about Taj. I think his defensive efforts make up for what he may lack on the offense.

I bet Boozer would be a good trade piece.

problem with trading boozer is that contract. and imo, i think Taj is just as good on the offensive end. he has a nice 12-15 jumper as well as some back to the basket moves.

it was a 5 year 75M deal. 3 years @ $15m a pop left.

bulls cap is pretty much shot when you add in Noah, Boozer, Deng and Rose. 55-60M tied up in the those 4

How much of them will be useful come next season? Didn't follow Chicago late into the season...

Rose out w/ the ACL... expected to be back by beginning of next season? Probably not?

Noah went down with an ankle, right?

and wasn't Deng struggling to stay healthy?

That's a tough go for your most expensive (and important) players...

Chicago has some good role players though. CJ Watson and Lucas seemed to fill the voids pretty well... and again, Taj...

Rose is out until jan or feb...depending on rehab

Deng is unknown. if he plays in teh olympics and then has surgery on his wrist, he will miss a few months of the season.

noah will be fine.

cj isn't bad. he does an ok job running the offense, but his shooting went to shit as the season went along. could be related to his dislocated elbow.

lucas dribbles too much.

i did hear talk that captain kirk could come back. that would be a nice pickup.
