He's available and we know what he can bring. We also know that we can't rely on Hinrichs health either.

Agree, Nate offensively is one of the few options left who can produce even a sample of what Rose brings. F#%k it, go all in anyway.

I approve this thread.

I'd be on the phone with him ASAP. Also Kirk can not start. Regardless of what Thibs thinks, Brooks is the better player and fits the scoring PG role the starting lineup needs. Putting Kirk out there with Butler, Mike, Gasol and Noah is just stupid. You start Brooks and play him 30+. I also think you bring in Nate to back Brooks up.

Brooks and Nate can provide plenty of scoring.

I'm in.

Dead serious. We can't go rev the tank back up anyway. If we're gonna go balls out in the playoffs we need someone who can somehow replicate what decent Rose can bring. That guy should have been DJ. But I'll shoot for Nate.

Get. Him. Now.

Knee jerk accusation be damned.

I'd rather have Niko run the point.

Garpax better be on the phone right now.

question. Why don't you guys run the offense through Noah more? Last year he was dominant passing from the high post.

The Bulls offense was awful last year, is why.

Nate or Farmar?

LOL well yeah but with Gasol & Butlers emergence it will obviously be much better. Just thought it could help minimize the loss of Rose. Run the offense through noah in the high post, using Gasol & Butler off screens/post ups, have Brooks space the floor. Obviously don't watch as much as you do though. Sorry to hear about the news today, heart breaking.

Nate, Brooks, Jimmy, Niko Gasol Taj

That's my ride or die for the rest of the year if I'm Pax, and if we're lucky, we can catch Cleveland sleeping.

This makes perfect sense. All the more reason why GarPax will probably sit on their ass and not do anything. More time for Etwuan as well

IcemanGervin · Post #16 » by **IcemanGervin** » Wed Feb 25, 2015 4:28 am

That would be fun and probably a good business move by the Bulls in general. Nate was beloved by fans in Chicago.

This cork should plug the gaping hole in the dam. Theeere we go.

Before Goran was signed I was looking for guards (now we need PF but that's another story) in the D-League and international leagues. I don't know if this helps or not, but I thought all of these guys had something to offer. I know Nate has a history with you, but he has struggled since his injury. Anyway I wish you luck and hope it helps:

Larry Drew Jr (Sioux Falls - Heat affiliate) Excellent playmaker. Weak scoring though.
Manny Harris (NSK Eskişehir Basket in Turkey - need to buy out) Good player. He can score and create. Struggles defensively.
Seth Curry (Erie Bayhawks) more of a SG but can still play point. Struggles defensively but can shoot the lights out.
Bryce Cotton (Signed to a 10 day contract with Utah - you can pounce if they don't resign him) Good distributor. Best on this list at the moment.
Vander Blue (LA Defenders) strong on defense.
Brady Heslip (Igokea of Adriatic League - need to buy out) - Very good playmaker. You can't really tell if he plays defense well because he played at Reno.

Good luck guys! Don't give up!
