    Coach believes the Rockets need an experienced wing to go deeper in the playoffs. He feels the Bulls may have a fire sale and don't want to be in that 8th spot.

    McHale loves Dunleavy and feels he will add what this team needs.

    More as it comes.

    Mike Dunleavy rejected the Rockets in the offseason.

    Pass. He won't be effective in the playoffs. He's soft, can't get separation against defenses that lock onto him especially come playoff time. Despite his offense, he offers zero defensively, exacerbating our existing woes on that end.

    I would be ecstatic to have Dunleavy on this team. His ability to take kicks to the face like a champ is an element that this team has been missing for a long time.

    I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure we went after him this summer and he chose the Bulls.
