so who's left that would lift our spirits up here?
Powell
Dinwiddie?
DeRozan?
Hope and pray we've been working on a trade all this time?

Reggie is a guy that I would have been ecstatic to get on a sub 10 mil deal off the bench.

But increasingly it is looking like we might be paying someone like him 12-15mil to be our starter. And if that is the case, here's to hoping his bubble performance wasn't a fluke.

Yea we couldn’t get White out of them for Ball?? I woulda told them screw it, sign Ball out right and we may or may not match. Let them sweat a few days.

If the plan was for the bulls to sign 2 pgs, then why couldn't we have gotten white? They obviously have given up on him.

And our PG be like the next Drew Brees. A floor general who everyone didn’t expect to go all star level.

He’s more of a SG than a PG

The bulls are going to pay Lonzo and Caruso a combined $30,000,000 per for the next 3 seasons?

Whoof. I’m not so sure about that, Chicago.

Caruso will probably be starting over Lonzo by January. He’s just a far better player than Zo at this point in almost every single way imaginable.

I wouldn’t have minded Caruso on that contract.

He was awesome in the playoffs this year. Not the bubble.

I was thinking I’d wouldn’t mind a Caruso signing as a cheaper Ball replacement if/when he left. Much better value at less than half of what Ball will make. Bulls signing him is out of left field though.

@NetsDaily
Dinwiddie options more and more limited. Fewer teams who need starting PG, less money available. If it’s the Wizards, he’ll need Nets help. If Nets don’t want big salaries in return, probably need third team. Surprises always possible but …

Thing is, Washington is in the same position we are, arguably worse.

They need to prove to Beal it's worth him not deciding "frick it" half way through this upcoming season like he almost did last season, and the Wiz have 25 million in cap space.

They can match any offer we throw up to that point. and if it gets to that point, man, that's bad, and desperate.

I honestly don't think this tweet will age well. Dinwiddie probably gets paid, the question is who hands him that bag?
