    Still a great opportunity in Chicago. Guards do well there and DJ has been struggling.

    Are Jimmer's defensive struggles attributed to lack of size/speed/quickness or knowing where to be? If it's the latter it seems maybe Thibs could help him out?

    Maybe I'm watching a different DJ, but most times I have watched him he has been productive

    ^ I'm sure he meant that DJ Augustin was struggling prior to getting to Chicago. You should hear the way Pacers and Raptors fans talk about him.

    This seems like a Nate Robinson replacement. If he can go off for a game or 2, they can steal another series in the east.

    Overall DJ has been very productive in Chicago but recently went through a bad stretch offensively and defensively.

    If Jimmer works hard he will get shots in Chicago.

    He'll probably play a year or two with the Bulls and then his NBA career will be over. Adam Morrison v2.0

    It's not a terrible contract. Can we cut Greg Smith and claim Jimmer off waivers?

    Why? Jimmer sucks. Why not just sign Adam Morrison?
