Richard is back & Hunter will remain in a suit

[Diddy1122]

So the Bulls payed Lindsey Hunter $1mill + to do what exactly? Play a total of 122mins this season then just hang out in the coaches huddle the rest of the time? I have no problem with Hunter as a mentor or an organizational guy on this team but seriously what the hell was the point of paying him more than half of Vinny's salary when they were just going to make him an assistant anyway? A complete & utter waste of money & a roster spot for 2/3rds of the season. His spot & money could have been split on two younger players or vets, who were hungry for a spot in the rotation & played well during pre-season, ala Derrick Byars, Chris Richard, or James Augustine.

Fun fact: Only 5 players have shot a worse field goal percentage (on 30 or more shots) than Hunter did this year. Go Lindsey!

Were those players the oldest players in the league too?

Because you had to add a min salary guy and the league paid for about 500,000 of Lindsey's contract
