I thought a thread like this already existed, but I could not find it. 

Robin Lopez is not fitting in with the Bulls this season.  Reportedly, the Bulls have refused to negotiate a buyout because they have been hoping to get a pick for him, but yesterday he got into a heated argument with Dunn and left practice.  That could push them to move forward on a buyout.

I think he'd serve as great depth at center.  Some guys are too big for Theis and Time Lord is still quite raw.

What do people think?

Sure, but what happens once Baynes comes back?
"I bomb atomically, Socrates' philosophies and hypotheses
Can't define how I be dropping these mockeries."

Is the glass half-full or half-empty?
It's based on your perspective, quite simply
We're the same and we're not; know what I'm saying? Listen
Son, I ain't better than you, I just think different

depth... and I understand the another move will have to happen first.  Bird will have to be cut or a trade will have to happen first.
