I hope this means no Rondo. Either work out a trade w/ a team where we trade Salary+draft pick for Rondo's 3m buyout.

That's really my only problem with this. Why do we keep getting PGs and we've been drafting for the same need for 5 drafts now.

Yep. Cannot wait for the presser on this one.

Well if its real bad, half this board will disappear anyway.

But if we are tanking, ship out Lopez and try to trade or buy out Wade.

If that's the case, then there was never a serious conversation to be had with them.

or perhaps damage control by Bulls management. But I believe we heard that at the trade deadline too

I wanted a rebuild with assets.

Not a rebuild with nothing.

This is why people didn't want to trade Jimmy, because there was no Hershel walker package walking through that door. The tank is here...be careful what you ask for.

This will be answered based on future perseverance with the 'process' not right now when its still all fantasy and imagining outcomes.

Look at this board in 2 years 60 games into the season, if people are posting in game threads, if there is discussion about the team.

Or if its a ghost town of apathy.

At a minimum, I'd expect more fiery debates about the young prospects.

So far he's been a stat stuffer with poor impact.

Which is scary, since he's already an efficient volume scorer, yet showing as a negative. If he has no interest in defense, hard to see how he ever becomes that great of a positive.

Off RPM: -0.62
Def RPM: -2.35

This almost certainly means no Rondo

Maybe he'll be fun to watch on a team of bums

Wade and Dunn have awfully similar body types, haven't watched enough of Dunn's game to comment on if their style of play is similar.

I like having a vet like Wade around to work with Dunn. Curious to see if they let him take the Bull by the horns (pun not intended) or if they bring Rondo back.

Will Wade opt out now?
