Both would come cheap and fill needs (if Rush can stay healthy), their production would exceed the money being spent on them. Barbosa can create his own shot + play the 1/2 and Rush is a 3D player who can play the 2/3.

We should engage the Nets regarding Joe Johnson maybe too? He, like Gordon, has 2 years left on his deal which aligns with our cores contracts
Boozer gives them quicker cap relief, and I would be willing to add a pick to the deal which they need desperately
Thoughts?

I was shakey on Eric Gordon before but as I watched more of his aau teams with rose , they complemented each other really well. Gordon can handle the ball and play catch and shoot. I think he more of a system player which is why I don't think he shines too well with New Orleans , put him in our system I think he looks great.
Problem is, it looks like our one big signing is only going to be pau gasol. In order to pay pau 10-12 mill we have to amnesty boozer , cut the non guarantees and lose our exceptions. So how then do we get Gordon unless we ready to part with taj for him? I don't think we part with taj for him we can get better with taj. We should only part with taj for Kevin love or Eric Bledsoe.
Besides y'all know damn well Jerry not green lighting a 14 mill per sg after dropping a bag for pau and all the other contracts. I'm prepared for vet min additions at the guard position

Absolutely. It's just funny seeing how far your standards have fallen since you were convinced you were getting Melo.
Regardless, sign Mirotic...
Trade Boozer's expiring for Eric Gordon, throw in a first rounder if you have to
and you'll have a very good team all depending on Rose... he doesn't necessarily have to be the MVP he once was, he just needs to be a top 10 point guard and play 70 games
edit: the joe johnson idea above is a good one too...

the bulls wouldn't have to throw in a pick to get gordon. the pelicans have been looking to get out from under that contract since the day after they signed it.
Standards have nothing to do with it. There's a thing called the salary cap. These type of moves would need to be made, regardless if Melo was on the team or not - this is just the next step.
East wide ass open and yall fo still fukking around. Good thing its no great team in the East, so you can still get out of it

And I'm asking
How are we supposed to engage any talks of Eric Gordon, joe Johnson or even lance Stephenson when it's being reported pau bout to cash out with us for 10-12 mill and the way we about to give that to him is amnesty boozer lose our exceptions and cut the non guarantees?

I still think snell would be better off the bench.He isn't gonna be doing that vs nba 1st units.He looked like a deer in headlights last year and was scared to shoot when the bulls needed offense.I'd take joe johnson or eric gordon at the sg over snell.Bulls are in the same position as the '11 team this time rose missed 2.5 years with injuries they still need a sg who can get his own shot and 16-20 ppg to balance the offense.
