I really think this is a signing that has flown under the radar on the National spotlight. Korver has played well and been a key piece to our success this season. I saw a stat that said, The Bulls are 14-2 when Korver scores in double figures...

Thoughts?

Whether Korver takes shots is almost irrelevant. Of course it's better if he's taking and making threes, but just him being out there is a game changer. When he's out there his man is not helping on Rose or Boozer.

Also Korver's been much better on defense than advertised. He's hopeless in the open court where you can abuse his lack of quickness, but in the half court he follows the scheme and is usually in the right place to at least not give up open shots.

Although Boozer got the headlines as the big signing Korver & Brewer have both been really solid pick ups. So often guys for MLE type money have bombed and been complete wastes.

Korver was an amazing signing. Next year, when he's truly comfortable in this scheme, he'll be a Bulls fan super-hero.

True. I believe he's already a partial fan favorite. Personally, I've been a fan of his game since his days as a Sixer. Your right though. He will be more liked as time goes on for him in Chicago.

When he plays well he definitely impacts the game but there a times were he completely disappears and is total non-factor. For the price that the Bull got them is was win situation for Chicago, but I would like to see a little more from Korver.
