Nick Young is a RFA as well and it is premature to talk about FA we dont even know what the rules may be. The Bulls may not be able to get even one free agent if the owners get there way.(which looks likely)

Nick Young will be a Wizard he will get paid I'm 100% sure they will match any realistic offer and the Bulls dont have any cap room.

The question was 'which player would you most like.' Not 'which player will they most likely sign.'

And if there is no season next year then these free agent won't demand as much compensation because it will be double the size in the summer of 2012.

after hearing Stern's presser tonight it is gonna be really tough for tax paying teams to add free agents. only a 2.5 million MLE and no S&T will really help the small markets. The players will accept this if they dont want to get killed like the NHL players did a few years ago.

I would take any one of those players (including DeShawn Stevenson who I left out) before Smith in this poll except Sonny Weems.

I like him offensively a ton but defensively he's pretty awful.
I think he could improve his defense to be respectable. As long as he can fit the system, which I believe he can.

I think his offense is much more of an upgrade over Bogans/Brewer/Korver.

The thing is that it would be more ideal, in my opinion, for the Bulls to go after a player that can replace the defensive abilities of Bogans/Brewer and the shooting ability of Korver (as much as possible) while gaining some creating abilities in the process. A player like Wilson Chandler or Arron Afflalo would make all 3 of the KB/KK/RB group expendable.

I wouldn't be opposed to getting Marcus Thornton if that is all they can get.

I don't get why Chandler is pnt getting mor support :shrug: I mean he puts up decent scoring numbers, he plays with heart, he's got more length than all of our 2's and he isn't undersized SI he could hold his own against the best and his defense could be really good with thibs. Plus he is a hometown guy :buttrock:

Chandler is more of a SF/PF I doubt he can play SG full time. He seems like he could be a good defender he has yet to shown he can be. I think in the right situation he will play defense though.
