and why would we let Dunleavy bounce, especially to another Eastern Conf team?

we would be going into the season with either Snell/Doug starting with no depth on the bench at the wings

we still need to sign a backup PG too, so the exceptions may need to go to that

like @cornercommission2k12 said, the bulls need to be looking at a younger player like gerald green, who's athletic and can shoot 3's and finish on the break as well.

Ya'll got to chill on the hate just a bit. We have no flexibility whatsoever, any move that could really transform the roster would have to be done through trades, and who is to say they havent been active trying that?

Would you prefer that the Bulls were cheap and just let Dunleavy walk for nothing? If anything signing him means we have full rights to all of all exceptions since we are retaining players with bird rights over the cap right now, and will be paying the tax

The cap is going up, and its not like 5 mil is drastically overpaying. If the 3rd year is a team option, I would be 100% cool with the signing

Ya'll laugh about internal improvement, but thats exactly what we need with Rose, Noah, Snell & McDermott right now along with the infusion of a new coach
Lol the past years tell us we haven't been active doing that. Breh we not the Brooklyn nets, it's moves that can be made, these clowns just don't want to do it. We gotta stop making excuses for incompetence heads should be rolling after blowing a golden opportunity to get to the finals yet we still here making excuses for mediocrity? Yall buying that no flexibility thing, none of that means nothing to me, we tried the clear the space and sign them out right tactic and it failed twice now the way should be via trade but these dudes clearly don't have the best working relationship with other owners in the league to pry good talent from them. Teams only saying yes to salary dumping and taking a asset from us.

How about we say goodbye to a few dudes on this team, site rose jimmy pau maybe niko as our core going forward and hand the luggage to all these other dudes who not going to help us win now. We see other teams with larger salaries continue to get active yet we here acting like we have a 120 million dollar roster. Jerry the most profitable owner in the league but I don't think this about money at all, this about gar pax never being able to get it done. Period.

Gerald Green is an UFA, so there is really no point in throwing his name out as a viable player here

We simply dont have the money to acquire him

The cap is going to be over 100 million in 2017 (108 million is current projection). 5 million in 2017 (4.6% of the cap) would be 3.1 million in today's cap (4.6% of 67 million).
My only issue are the years at this poiint

I just thought they would be more careful adding salary past the summer of 2017, thats going to be a huge summer for us

Hopefully there is a team option involved here

If we end up still picking up a better wing and back up pg, then this means nothing.

But you can't blame bulls fans for being pessimistic and looking at this like the only moves that will be made outside of adding a vet min salary after all the bigger moves are made by everyone else, it is very possible no trade will be made and adding a vet at back up pg is all that will happen. That is pitiful.
