Kevin martin is another good option and JR smith is to small, can't play D, and has a major attitude....that doesn't sound like a player I want to be signed :nope:

I'd personally like to see the Bulls go after a guy like DeShawn Stevenson and then draft somebody to develop behind him. That seems like a viable route to go because a guy like Stevenson isn't going to be a big money player and he brings great shooting to the table and plays excellent defense. He would make Brewer, Korver, and Bogans all expendable from the day he got here.

i hate to "group" ellis with the ben gordons and jason terrys of the world, but i think that ellis would be a PERFECT sixth man.

he could get up his major shots and get going during the second and beginning of the fourth quarter, and could be a more than reliable scorer when rose is out of the game. with the bulls second unit constructed as it is, you could just give ellis the ball and let him go to work.

in the fourth playing next to derrick rose, is there a more scary player to leave to double rose than monta ellis? and eventually i think the great team defense of the bulls can win out.

at the same time, i wouldn't be opposed to starting ellis either, i think rose and ellis could both take turns guarding the shooting guard.

however i don't think boozer for ellis would be near enough to get it done.

Monta Ellis was one hell of a sixth man back in 2007 when they upset Dallas.

Not feeling Stevenson...he can't create offense like Martin or Ellis can...not in the same ballpark. You have to remember, Pax/Forman swing for the fences...I don't think Stevenson is the answer to what they are looking for.

He's not the answer but I think getting him and losing Korver, Bogans, and/or Brewer would be a big step in the right direction. The team would be able to shed some money off of their pay-roll or maybe getting some young players in return. Getting some rookie contracts under their cap would be a good idea. They will keep their main core intact along with a couple of bench guys in Taj and Omer.

The beauty of getting a guy like Stevenson is how expendable he makes all of this team's current SGs because he does almost everything they can do, to a certain degree. He's a lot like a rich man's Keith Bogans.

Rose, Watson
Stevenson
Deng, Stevenson
Boozer, Gibson
Noah, Asik

And also add in whatever it is that the Bulls would get for Korver and Brewer.

Could Jonathan Blake be an future option for the Bulls to recruit, draft or trade rights for...??? A 6'7 2 guard who can shoot and create his own shot from anywhere on the floor....

Just an idea.......

The kid can ball...A decent future draft pic for the Bulls scout to watch out for...

He is talented young man no doubt... But there is some questions how he will play in nba.... Will he work hard? How he will play against personal defender? How he can play with his teammates... Is he smart enough to learn and release his talent fully.

He definately has a lot of potential, skill and size...A lot of people are sleep on him because he doesn't play for a big school..
