I'm not sure why anyone would think the #1 College scorer would have an impact? :dunno:

You can actually do the exact same thing with Mirotic. He has good enough instincts to do that.
Gasol is a proven commodity there and I 100% believe Jimmy will help in the playoffs. Gasol alone I think will make a world of difference even though he's not on the perimeter.
Your issue is then with Thibs and not the players on the team. Jimmy's playing 40 minutes whether you like it or not. Gasol I hope will start to get rested more as Mirotic proves himself and Noah gets healthier. But again, that's more on Thibs than who we have on the team as there is no guarantee that the presence of Green would impact Jimmy's minutes.

yes, since leading college in scoring always translates to being a good NBA player

It's called being a bench player. Why would you think that JB could take a rest, but the opposing teams best player doesn't?

Is the best perimeter player playing all the time? If that player is a SG you can put Hinrich or maybe Snell on him for a few minutes if you had to and just live with the results. If that player is an SF, then it's likely that Thibs just lines up Jimmy's minutes with his. Or again, you can put Hinrich or Snell on him for a couple minutes and just deal with it. This can happen with Allen on the floor.

and so you guys are all for bringing in ray allen but don't worry about team chemistry by adding him to the mix or the fact that he has been on his couch so far this year???? but when i mention adding Gerald green who has been playing this year, and at a high level, you guys suddenly are worried about chemistry?? wow okay

I just don't understand what on Earth Gerald Green has ever done in his NBA career other than blow a fucking candle out on a cupcake in the dunk contest that warrants him being a difference maker on a title contending team? He's played 131 total minutes in the playoffs. If I'm trading McDermott, then it's certainly going to be for a veteran presence who will come in and give us exactly what you feel like Green will give this team.

Two entirely different people said those things. Can't lump the two ideas together.

Ray Allen was a key contributor to a title contending team and is one of the five greatest shooters in the history of basketball. Gerald Green blows candles out on cupcakes in the dunk contest.

You're losing track. One person said Ray Allen. =/= Everyone wants Ray Allen.

yes, it is a bit crazy. korver is a guy who has led the NBA in 3 point shooting multiple years. i don't think dougie will hit that level...again we just differ on opinion on mcdermott

Rami blows out birthday candles when he plays 5th graders on 9' rims. I think we finally found a challenger.

It's cool, I'm just stopping you before you argue a point that doesn't exist.

And the Bulls have no other perimeter defenders? You know, the one's that are on the court when the bench is playing?
