Anonymous and 1-2 punch. It doesn’t mater now but the Bulls could only sin Nate to the Vets min. He wasn’t going to take that.

Nate was the reason CHI got past the 1st round. He had the playoffs of his career, and I’m sure a lot of had to do with having something to prove as “Rose’s replacement”.

But with Rose back, I think Kirk serves as the more logical back-up to Rose.

Hey 1-2, I guess you don’t understand the Bulls cap situation. Nate would have to sign for the vets min. to play for the Bulls at this time. It is a shame that he has to go begging for a job as a bench player but that is the situation with the new CBA.

screw what thibs thinks. sign nate back. goudelock wouldnt be a bad signing, but nate is a much better all around nba player.

for all that he did last season and with the money he was paid, he deserves to cash in.

I think Snell had a rough time once he went to playing the 4, after Murphy was hurt. That being said I think his overall performance this year has been better than both Teague’s and Butler’s during their rookie summer league experience.

Murphy will definitely be more of an asset than Radmanovic was last season. I believe that he will stick as a “stretch 4”.

Hopefully Thomas can play some more during the SL playoffs. I am not sure that he can be Noah’s primary back-up but he will help the Bulls at both C and PF.

I have enjoyed your recaps and analysis so far.
