Just bought out by the Clip Show. Sounds like he might end up with the Bulls if he clears waivers.


I don't think he is that much better than Bogans, but his name is cool.

The report I heard had him signing with the Bulls. I read another that said he might see what other options are out there first.


He is averaging like 5 points a game this year. He isn't very good. 31 years old or so. I think I heard his 3point percentage is somewhere around 35 for his career.

Just got off the phone with my Bulls guy and the bigger 2nd guard is the focus, thus Butler is being talked to right now.

Of course my Bulls guy called me to ask if he use my account to bet on Colin Firth on Bodog.com for best actor. Looked it up, and he is a -4000.00 Yes, lay $4000 to win $100. He passed.

Good point, he is 6'6/6'7

Brewer and Korver are both 6'7", aren't they?

Good point, he is 6'6/6'7

I'm not saying he's a world beater, but Butler is a legit thick 6'7" and possibly could spell Deng at the 3. Give him the prorated veterans minimum, and let him rot in Thib's doghouse of he doesn;t play D.

I think Brewer is just rounding into shape off his leg injuries, IMO Brewer/Tard/Rose should be the 3 guard playoff rotation, with Korver in to space the floor at the 3 when the Deng is catching a blow...

No thanks. I would rather they just leave things alone.

again, they want him as a starting 2 guard that can defend a bigger guard. My guy is pretty tight with Paxson and when I said I want a guy that can hit the open 3's that are open in the first quarter as everyone doubles Rose.

While my guy agreed, they want Defense.

Free-agent forward Rasual Butler signed with the Chicago Bulls on Thursday and will be available to play on Friday against the Orlando Magic.

Butler was bought out by the Los Angeles Clippers late Sunday night and cleared waivers on Wednesday.

The Bulls had considered trading for a shooting guard, but they were unwilling to part with Omer Asik or Taj Gibson, preferring instead to wait to see who was bought out.

The Bulls don't intend for Butler or any new player to break into the starting lineup or even log major minutes, a source told

Butler averaged five points in 18 minutes this season after averaging 11.9 points last season. A 6-foot-7 swingman, Butler, 31, has averaged 8.6 points a game in eight NBA seasons.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Agreed.

once in awhile is an understatement

he's a career 31% 3pt shooter

It's official now. Sounds like Scalabrine is headed to the injured list with a broken heart.

Bulls don't need to get rid of anyone because they needed to add a player to have a minimum roster after they trade JJ
