Gallinari is actually pretty good...
If fact, Belinelli is the worst of the three Italians.

Which is why we have an outside shot of having him on the team for a season or two. :elephant:

Can anyone tell me why Paxson is so obsessed with picking up other peoples trash?
Anyone?

Seriously, its a pretty sick obsession.
Did Pax's parents used to feed him nothing but leftovers when he was a kid?
Did John Paxson have to wear his big brothers hand-me-down clothes to school all the time?
When all the other kids in school got SuperNintendo for Christmas, did Pax buy his kids a used ATARI 2600 ?......
Did Paxson dress up as a GarbageMan to school for "career day"?
Does Pax enjoy garage sales?

Is john Paxson a piece of leftover garbage himself?

:shrug:

The mystery of Super Salvage Pax continues.................

Are we as a people going to continue to buy overcharged Bulls tickets and 10 dollar slices of pizza with our hard earned money?
Maybe when we stop spending money with the Bulls orginization, maybe the FO will stop wasting it?

Actually, that's not a half bad idea.

Except...if we're lucky it'll be that the organization will realize that putting a crappy product on the floor will result in less money than putting a good team on the floor and paying the luxury tax. Ha...yeah right.

Delonte is who I'm really hoping for at this point along with possibly Birdman if he clears wavers. CDR also interests me a lot also as he was Rose's backcourt mate. I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens.

You know things are bad when you're really hoping for Delonte West.

That would be all good and well, except the Bulls waited until after season tickets were sold out for next year before they raised the ticket prices and gutted the bench.

With Rose out, too bad they couldn't go the Jordan/Bobcats route and have a buy one season, get the second one free plan.

Beli would be a good addition. There really isn't anything else better out there. He is like a Kirk Hinrich in the way that he is a combo guard, but he doesn't defend as well as Kirk. On the other hand he has a real good jumpshot and is a smart player. Hopefully this becomes official in the next day or two. Looking forward to this season. Think we will surprise the league and still be a good team until Rose comes back.

For everyone clamoring for Courtney Lee, Belinelli's numbers are very comparable to his. His D is nowhere near as good but he will be brought in to replace Korver & he can do a good job of it. In fact, he can score in more ways than Korver can so this actually could be an upgrade.

Belinelli's deal is official and they are also going after Summer League player Malcolm Thomas.

There are a lot of bloggers acting like they know something but Aggrey Sam is more inside with the Bulls than any of these fakers on rumors websites.

And he's saying that signing Bellineli doesn't rule out Randy Foye coming as well. I know people want to put Teague in as the backup to Hinrich until Rose comes back but I tend to agree with Sam Smith in thinking that's not the plan, hence they are looking at Foye. Bellineli can score and come in behind Hamilton. The bench consisting of Butler, Gibson, Mohammed, Bellineli and Foye plus Radmonovic would be a little different than what they had before, as strong defensively on the front line but no worse in the backcourt than Korver/Watson.

I would be for signing Thomas even if he isn't going to play much. The selling job they would have to do is that he would be practicing and learning and if they could trade Boozer he'd move up or if Taj asked for way too much he would be in line. If he stays around until Mirocic comes over he might be a stronger inside player and get minutes. An undrafted guy who has had some strong Summer league games could get an inflated idea of what he can do against players who don't have to be in the summer league.
