    Well Goran would have been that guy, but now as it stands, no - not a single one.

    Then Chandler Parsons is tweeting "SMH" at the news of Dragic - you just know players are itching to get the hell out of Houston.

    I missed that tweet. Yea - this can't be good for keeping our good players much less wooing good players.

    KC is the beat writer for the Chicago Tribune and has the reputation of being the mouthpiece of the bulls organization. Prepare for a match.

    I see your point. While we can't say Scola or Martin are out yet I think there replacements are on the team.

    Martin - Lamb
    Scola - White or DMo

    Sad day though. I'm one of those that think Dragic was a second tier point guard with a chance at many all star games in his future.

    I was half expecting Lee to sign with Chicago, one of those you-sign-mine, I'll-sign-yours "trades".

    Yeah, why would young players want to stay here on a rebuilding team and have a legit chance to start, when they can go sit on the bench of a veteran team.

    Hope they match. If we're gonna tank we may as well make it count.

    Amen, losing Dragic really hurts, if he blows up as many expect, Morey will be whiping egg of his face for years.

    I hope it does get matched, save our cap room and continue blowing this mutha up. We're rebuilding from scratch and gathering draft picks, GOOD for MOREY!
