Not sure where this Reddick can’t play D vibe is coming from. The reason he was given more and more minutes up to the point of being given a signicant amount in the ECF was because he improved A TON on defense. The guy can play both sides of the ball.

redick may be the best fit for us. he reminds me a lot of hindreck and all i keep hearing about is that he cant play d. well im not sure if you know but he did come from duke and they play pretty damn good defense. it has taken him a couple of years to figure of the pro game but its coming around. his 3 point shot is getting better from the longer range and his passing skills are much improved too. not only can he play at the 2 but i think he would be a good backup for rose at the point. with a defensive minded coach and a bunch of guys that do play d i think you will see a different player in redick. i mean he came from orlando and other than howard and barnes they dont play a lot of d either so what did you expect from a guy whose only job really was to be a spot shooter.

WORST CASE SCENARIO BULLS LINEUP STARTERS FIRST:
PG: D.Rose
SG: Roger Mason
C: Noah
PF: C. Boozer
SF: L. Deng

Bench:
K. Korver
Taj Gibson
James Johnson
O. Asik
Royal Ivy
Marquis Daniels
K. Brown
Brian Scalabrine

Worst case scenario is a bench that is lacking in good 3pt shooters besides Korver, players who didn’t play important roles with their previous teams, and no proven veteran leadership. Why do I have the bad feeling that the Bulls are going to end up with the worst case scenario team or something like!!!

Possible Bulls lineup, starters first:
PG: D.Rose
SG: JJ Redick
C: Noah
PF:C. Boozer
SF: L. Dang

Bench:
Kyle Korver
Taj Gibson
Brad Miller
James Johnson
O. Asik
Eddie House
Matt Barnes
Luke Ridnour

I think this line up can be competitive with the top teams in the east espcially with a proven veteran bench of Miller, House, Barnes, Korver, and Ridnour.

At least Asik gives us an additional 6 fouls for guys like Howard. I highly doubt we’ll see much of him this year, especially if we get Brad back, and we’ll surely never see him in crunch time. This will just be a development year for him.

I think the Orlando Magic is not planning to re-sign JJ Reddick since they already sign Q. Richardson to take his spot and I think they are planning not to pay over the luxury tax.

Eventually I think they are going to re-sign Matt Barnes since he is an all around player: (defense and offense.)

Which is why I think the Bulls should go after right away Ronnie Brewer for a good price since, he is still available to finish building our backup bench players.

We can move JJ Reddick as a backup PG for D. Rose since he is a pretty good passer and move Ronnie Brewer as a backup SG next Kyle Korver. Then hopefully we can resign Brad Miller to a 1 year deal to backup J. Noah.

Reddick is gonna be a great pick up and he will make a solid contribution to our bulls this I am sure of yet is he a starter in time we will find that out cause he is getting starter money .

I’m not worried about Redick, defensively. I liked what I saw from him in the playoffs. He is young enough where we haven’t seen all he has to offer yet.

Orlando is already over the Luxury Tax, I don’t know if they want to go much more over.
