Adding to the backcourt rotation
Another option I would consider is putting combo guard Tomas Satoransky back in the starting line up. with that said, that will not fix the glaring problem the Bulls suffer with at the point guard position. Sato has a high IQ but he is not the playmaker we need at the one.
I think a Lonzo Ball trade helps the bulls solidify the point guard position. There’s already rumors floating around at a possible Ball trade. Ball brings a calmness to the floor. He also has shown he can make the correct basketball play and doesn’t turn the ball over at high volumes.
Yes he’s not a score first point guard, but setting the tone and commanding Donovan’s offense is more important to this point in the season.
We have seen enough film to back my criticism of White. Easy fix is that you pull the trigger, then you move White to the bench as a volume scorer with the second unit. White needs more time to develop but he also is capable of scoring in bunches so I would keep White on the roster.
George Hill is another option, he comes much cheaper as well and has the ability and experience the Bulls are lacking at PG. Bringing D-Rose back for his final chapter could bring more excitement to Chicago as well.
Actually I think along with Zach LaVine (who should be an All-Star), Patrick Williams and White should be seen as the untouchables. Williams will be an All-star in the future, that I can guarantee. Everyone else should be available for trade, for either future assets or that defensive presence.
A splashy win now move should not be out of the question for the Bulls new front office either. I’m absolutely positive Arturas Karnisovas is not satisfied with the currently underachieving Chicago Bulls team. There are many less talented teams around the NBA that are playing much better than the Bulls are. Yes the Bulls are better this year but this roster has many years together and should be better.
