    Buyouts are in the interest of both players and owners, that's not going to change.

    I'll miss Rip and the video clip/interview they used to show on TV during the playoffs about him and his stupid mask.

    Id rather have Justin Beiber on our team, at least he'll sell tickets and he kinda looks like Emma Watson with that short haircut...ha ha

    Hamilton would make us a better team.. but what's the point? I'd rather us take our lumps with the young guys than bringing in a vet to get us 1-3 more wins. I don't think Hamilton would be interested from going to one lottery team to another.

    Are you implying that you're getting aroused by Justin Beiber? :eek:

    If we were contenders, I'd love to add Hamilton off the bench. And I would bet teams like the Celtics, Spurs, Mavs and Heat are all going to look at him.

    But we're not even a contender to make the 8th seed in the playoffs. Why would we sign a guy like this who could only make us better, thus hurting our standing in the draft lottery?

    HECK NO! (wait one sec...*zip* flame suit on...) :cool:
    I would resign T-Mac though for a mil especially with what he's done for his value, basically a decent back up PG,SG, and SF for a cheap price couldn't be bad.:grin:

    We are rebuilding people, get that through your heads. Rebuilding teams don't sign washed up vets that only have limited time left in the league.

    outside of looking alike, do you think courtney lee will have a solid midrange offensive game like rip did in his prime? my guess is hell no.

    Not a chance. We don't need him and it makes no sense for him to come here -- especially whenever he has the chance to put a team like Chicago over the top.
