more like #4-5 option..

i think Dray likes assists over scoring and will defer to Dwight and the other dude on the court will be Barnes' replacement... basically shoots 3s, guard the other team's best perimeter player, and take advantage of mismatches off switches

Honestly all paths this offseason leads to sucks as Bulls fan. Unless they luck up something serious in FA. I'm so apathetic right now, I don't even know what I want them to do.

Complete rebuild makes most sense in terms of hoping to start to compete at end of Brons prime tho.

I'd like to see Derrick in a Bulls uni with a full season and full offseason finally under his belt tho.

The bulls will have cap space to sign 2 max fa's next summer this off season they need to be adding younger,more athletic players they should be trying to acquire another 1st round pick so they can draft 2 solid rotation pieces Like Malik beasley/timothe luwawu,deyonta davis,wade baldwin or dejonte murray then next summer add the final pieces in free agency.

He wants more post touches (he led the League last season) despite being an awful post player.
He refuses to stick to Pnr
Dwight does not like switching on defense
He's a poor passer of the ball
Dwight doesn't not like leaving the paint & contesting shots
His rim protection has fallen off a cliff
He's a liability in the 4th quarter for obvious reasons
He sets the worst picks
He's a cancer when he doesn't get his way & destabilizes locker rooms.
He admitted to quitting last season on live television

Draymond and Curry will make sure he gets the ball in the post. Remember those two players are unselfish. Neither one of them are ball hoggers like Harden. That will keep Howard from being unhappy because he won't be left out in the offense.
:mjlol: Teams will take that all day. Let Dwight get the ball in the post & put him on the line rather than let Curry launch 3's.

yall went from dikkriding him to come to your team in 2013 to acting like hes such a horrible cancer 3 years later

as if kobe isnt a historically horrible teammate and person
as if harden isnt a ball dominant fukkboy who never let dwight get any touches.. I woulda lost motivation playing with those fakkits too, if he goes to a situation next season where he'll be the main option watch yall hop back on his dikk

get it done mj:mjpls:
:dahell:Kobe is Kobe though

Let's keep it funky, even though he's an emotionally unstable player, he's better than more than half the centers in the league, he can still contribute defensively and he can still get you about 15 points a game. If he's smart he'd go to the Celtics, Brad Stevens could get the most out of him. But I'm sure he's taking the largest paycheck.

The Ummah!
If he goes to Golden State, they're going to be a problem for any team, might lose less than 9 games, they'd get a presence inside and already got the outside game on lock.

He doesn't want to go to a situation where like he becomes a savior or a key component of a franchise.... Dude wants to be in a place where he can get his numbers and go home at night win or lose


Yeah, dude isn't built for the pressure. :yeshrug:
