Who's a free agent 5 that could be signed to a ten day while Nerlens recovers? Wouldn't mind someone like Tyler Zeller or Bebe Noguiera

Schroder needs to stop closing games - especially when Furgeson is performing well. Exception is when Schroder is hot. He needs to stop playing heavy minutes with starters and padding his numbers. He should be playing with the bench 90% of the time and making that unit work optimally. And when he's playing like crap he needs to be pulled immediately. He's not some superstar that can just stink up the joint without being benched.

And god does this team not have a shooting coach?

So last year we don't have a real back up big all year and this year we want a third? Or is it meaning a backup at the four?

I'm more than fine with Kanter for the minimum. He's unplayable against some teams but could be very helpful against some others

I don't see anyway we get Prince. Moving Ferguson doesn't make sense. We could lower pick protections with Atlanta but that's not enough.

In the podcast KOC said the thinks the Hawks might be looking to "swap assets", ie moving on from Prince at this stage to take a crack at something else.

Read on Twitter


I think this could be a potential framework, but I honestly have no idea how to rate Prince. Based on the comments I saw on Hawks reddit, he does not seem to be playing well this season. His stats look okayish, but I just can't tell with him.

I don't see anything offensively that seems out of the ordinary. He's been pretty beat up.

I am one of the biggest Diallo fans, but I think I’d have to move him for Prince. I think as a 3rd-4th scoring option on this team he’d be perfect

Can we just dump Patterson and Abrines for Prince instead of Diallo?

I think if we are in fact looking for a backup big, Bobby Portis could be a possibility. Not sure if he really fits into their long term plans, now with Lauri and WCJ, and he will be in RFA this summer, and I'm not sure they'll look to pay him. He does things well that our second unit lacks, he's a decent scorer that can hit threes at a decent clip for a big (35% the last two years on 3.1 attempts each), and is a great rebounder (25% Dreb%, top 25 mark in the league) something that our team is miserable at whenever Steve isn't out there.

As for what we'd have to give up, I'm not completely sure. If the Bulls are just looking to get anything back for him before he hits RFA, perhaps cash and a couple second round picks, maybe including TLC or even Diallo. What do you guys think?
