Jimmer to be bought out

[Glenn]

We could always bring up Trent Lockett from our D-League team. He doesn't do anything spectacular, but he's solid, can hit an open shot, and he's a very good defender. At least he has the size to play the position.

Which position?

Trent Lockett is a SG, and he ain't that raw from what I saw in summer league.

Rumor has it Orlando Johnson, former Kings 2nd round pick (who was traded to Indiana on draft night) will be signed to a 10-day when Jimmer is eventually bought out.

I don't know if Johnson will get any minutes here, but he can play.

I don't get it. Why don't we just buy out Outlaw and JT and Acy or Evans, and terry then. What's so special about jimmer. I'm sure the other guys would love to be somewhere else.

These are the final, fading cries of Jimmermania, a foreshadowing of the coming cold silence soon to be echoing out of the empty camp where the fanatics once huddled alone together, resisting the onrush of the future, now unable to cope with the present. Goodbye strange friends, goodbye.

Although not confirmed, looks like Fredette could be headed to Chicago. If so Bulls can make it official on Saturday.

I wish Jimmer all the best...and I'm glad he's going to the East.

That's fair.

But then together lets build a make-believe world where we pretend that it was meant in the way I took it, because I don't want to void the fun I had writing my response, nor do I wish to steal joy from the hearts of future readers.

Fair enough. It was pretty good.

PDA on morning show with Carmichal Dave, 'I told Jimmer I hope you embarrass the hell out of me.' Classy.

Bulls close in on Fredette

...When told of Fredette's buyout, Bulls forward Taj Gibson seemed pleased about the potential move and believes the young shooter would benefit from a change of scenery.

"I've seen that he's got talent," Gibson said. "It's just that the team that he was on he never really got a chance to do much because they've got the characters on that team where they don't seem too serious, you know what I'm saying? Playing on strict, good teams kind of brings the best out of a player."...

Thompson, Cuz, Outlaw and IT are still left.

So we swapped those guys for the following:

Gay
Williams
Landry
Acy
Reggie
Ray
Gray

If you have "a" and "y" in your name, in that order, we will take you.

Not an ideal location for him, but not a bad one either. Thibodeau runs a short roster (only 7 guys get significant play time right now), but he also has a soft spot for no defense scoring guards like C.J. Watson, Nate Robinson, and now D.J. Augustin. They have the second best defensive front line in the game right now after Indiana.
