Yeah, I'm assuming Rip will be traded in this scenario (or any where we bring in another wing).
We dump him, get under the luxury tax threshold and hopefully are able to bring in a guard and a big.

When will the Bulls stop going after all these washed up players. There was a laundry list of them this off-season and they got none of them. This is sad. Even in the East, the Bulls will have a hard time getting in. Sit down Rose til 2013 so he can become fairly close to the player he once was. Don't want a Roy 2.0 on our hands.
Yup, because the two injuries between Rose & Roy are comparable.
I think it would take Rose even longer to get back to where he was if he were to sit the entire season. It gives him less tick to play in game and get re-acclimated to game speed. Also, I hear that the Lakers are interested in Bell too.
Well, Raja did put up career highs in TS% and eFG% last season. He still shot 39% from 3.
He'd be a useful player off the bench.

I would bring him in for his defense and 3 point shooting. Belinelli's playing like ****. At least he would help us off the bench like KH12 said.
I'd like to see Marco utilized more also, but I'm not sure at whose expense. Kirk needs to work out of his shooting slump, Rip and Nate have been playing well and bring key scoring abilities, and Jimmy needs more developmental minutes.
I expect that Nate/Rip will fluctuate in their overall minutes and Teague may be reached to far earlier than usual as the season progresses. Marco's added minutes should come at the expense of Nate/Rip, not from Butler.
I don't think Butler should get many more minutes than he is currently unless Lu's health becomes a concern.
Jimmy should get a few of Lu's minutes at SF. He should be playing 15-20 mpg every night.
Right now, I'd like to see something like:
PG: Kirk (28) - Nate (20)
SG: Hamilton (22) - Belinelli (20) - Butler (6)
SF: Deng (34) - Butler (14)
