my money's been on a 2 expirings for one (expiring or potentially longer term, depending on player quality) type deal when the deadline gets here, which may open up both some wiggle room and a roster spot. but yeah, if smith really is a lou williams/monk type guy (i actually doubt this), we have avenues.
That consolidation trade whereby Gabe and Kleber go out and bring back salary around 20m would open up another roster spot. That could be pretty useful in converting a two way and adding someone else on the buy out market too.
your boy's having a great start to the year, but that's all the more reason chicago's not doing this.
Nick reminds me of Monk a bit. Both have some edge, seem like team first guys and can get white hot. Nick seems better laterally which shows defensively while Malik has some crazy hops.
lol, he was shooting that from the time he got it back. excellent steal and save. we've been saying we could use a guy off the bench who can get a shot and make it. maybe he's already here.
