Why hasn't this been considered or even tried? Tony is HOT, like fire of ten thousand suns, HOT garbage. nobody respects his 3 ball, his defense is atrocious and he pretty much provides zero help out there and makes us far worse by having Jimmy play the 3 instead. having him out there makes us weaker at TWO positions (sg+sf)

Start Mirotic at the 3, or at least TRY it one game and see how it goes. Mirotic will provide better defense, rebounding, and 3 point shooting, let alone the ENERGY he plays with. Tony Snell looks like he should be working at a morgue, he is the most lifeless useless player I have seen in a Bulls uniform in a long time.

Yeah I know Dunleavy will be coming back soon, but seriously why hasn't this even been discussed? I think it would fix a lot of the spacing issues and defensive issues we have been seeing lately. Is it soley because he's a rookie? Dude can seriously ball when he gets some decent playing time, what gives thibs?

This has been tried. And discussed in threads devoted to the move. I will get you links later but just read the first couple of forum pages and check it out.

heres the main one. Mirotic most recently started against the Lakers.
The game and post game threads should still be close by.
