Lindsey Hunter just went to Chicago...

I always thought he would have been an excellent fit here. Anybody have any reasons why he wouldn't have fit in green?
"Let me call him," Floyd said.

The man shook his head. "O.J. doesn't give out his cell," he said. "He'll call you."

can't score.

We already have an excellent on the ball PG defender who struggles to score, not sure what the benifit of another would have been.

Just what Chicago needs, another PG. ::)

What is Paxson thinking?

Trade bait? Cover for Hinrich who's out for 3-4 months?

TP4U for the link. That's too bad because Paxson could have got someone promising at the deadline or sooner for Hinrich.

Rose is also hurting... so this is not a bad pick-up even with the huge amount of guards the team has.

Not bad. Everytime I think about the Bulls though I think about guards guards guards. They got more guards then the white house.  :-X

I think this is a terrible decision. Hunter is old. He only played 24 games last year for a reason. Sure he's great with defensive pressure, but why does Chicago need that? They already have enough trouble scoring the ball, they don't need a guy like Hunter to take up any more minutes who has a questionable amount of gas left in the tank anyway. I was expecting him to go to Detroit or another playoff/championship contender.
