Doc is a huge fan of Lou Williams. Wonder if he makes a run at him if Ray decides to go to Miami.

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
I agree, Bulls need to be aggressive everywhere but based on the rumor mill they're not at all.Not saying Rose is coming back in the spring. This team's future is a lot brighter than what Dallas' looks like though two years from now. Believe me, I know what's up with this season, I've been beating that drum for a while now. I was just saying it wouldn't hurt to pick up the phone and see if you could swing something.
As far as Dirk, I just don't see him coming here because he'll come here knowing this season is a lost cause.
A lot of guards are getting picked up and I see nothing by Chicago. I don't want to see Brewer, Korver, or Asik back.Comment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
So updated list of things I'd like to see the Bulls get done here in the offseason.
Sign either (preferably two of them if possible) Courtney Lee, Lou Williams or Kirk Hinrich
Sign Marcus Camby
Let Asik go to Houston
Don't resign Watson, Brewer and KorverComment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
I've heard reason we took away our offer for Courtney Lee is so we could offer him a 30-35 million contract. Expect Kevin Martin to be aggressively shopped in the coming weeks then.Comment

Thanks for the perspective sirI think they pursued it as a trading chip but if they didn't amnesty Brand, I don't think they could have signed Nick Young. So they would have to re-sign Lou Williams and they probably weren't comfortable doing that long term. I think the logic is that ideally both are a 6th man but Lou already established an identity as someone who finishes game. Now its easier to leave Holiday and Turner on the floor because there aren't established roles. I think they may pursue Hinrich now.
I really believe they wanted to keep Brand but the money was too much and then nobody wanted to trade for the contract. I heard before that Brand was willing to use his ETO ( early termination option) if they could come to an agreement on a 2 or 3 year deal.

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
If the Sixers amnesty Brand, then yeah I'll take him in Dallas for the cheap. I'd actually be happy about that. However, if our current offseason trend is any indication...PSN: xxplosive1984Originally posted by J. ColeFool me one time that's shame on you. Fool me twice can't put the blame on you.

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
I agree w/ all of this. My order being Williams, Lee, then Hinrich.
I hope the Bulls can find a way to get him.

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
Lou Williams is interesting... problem is he is extremely streaky.
At this point as a Bulls fan I know one thing. I want certain players to leave with no real desire to grab anyone out there at this point... except Mayo.Comment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
Mayo and Lou Williams are most likely looking for multi-year sizeable deals. I wonder if their options are shrinking at this point though, and are forced to do a Nick Young type deal.Comment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
My only issue with Mayo (I actually think he's a decent fit for a Rose-less Bulls team) is that he seems to want more than the MLE. Didn't he turn down Boston who was offering the MLE?
If the Bulls overpay for Mayo...they are potentially stuck with some very bad contracts for a long period of time.
I think Lou Williams would be a better fit on the Bulls.Comment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
Problem with Williams is what happens when Rose comes back? Goes back to 6th man? This is why I kind of wanted Crawford this year.My only issue with Mayo (I actually think he's a decent fit for a Rose-less Bulls team) is that he seems to want more than the MLE. Didn't he turn down Boston who was offering the MLE?

I think Lou Williams would be a better fit on the Bulls.
Hopefully Mayo gets forced to do what ex says. I'm honestly surprised none of the cap room teams haven't over payed him yet.Comment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
I would gladly take Mayo or Williams. I prefer Mayo though, he's a year younger and 3 inches taller.
I also thinks he has a higher ceiling. This guy average like 18pts, 4reb, and 3 ast in his first two years in the league with 38% from three. I think his situation in Memphis wasn't ideal for his development, but I think he could thrive in Chicago.
Lou is a better PG, but Mayo could get some minutes at PG when were waiting for Rose.
If it means amnesty Boozer so we get the full MLE, then I'm up for it. That also gives us room to extend Taj and let him start.
