Nice effort at speculative journalism.

But I’m flattered you thought I was Bill Simmons. I think.

He missed that big game… the reason?

Flu-like symptoms. 😛

How are the Bulls supposed to know how much Tyrus is worth. If they had a couple months they would have time to see whether he has improved this year and deserves more money

Though this event will not have any effect on what I just said. I legitimately believe Ty is sick especially if he isn’t even a go to fly with the team yet.

Plus, there are always teams that see a player’s potential and think, “I bet we can unlock that potential.” And hey, it worked with Tyson Chandler in New Orleans. For a while, anyway.

I don’t see a point in doing it. His contract’s done by the end of the year, and I don’t really see any team willing to give up a decent piece to acquire him.
