Marco Belinelli ladies and gentlemen!!!!!! The scary part is I kind of like this move. Your 2012-13 Bulls....Rose (injured), Hinrich, Teague, Belinelli, Hamilton, Deng, Gibson, Boozer, Vlad, Noah, Mohammed.......There is still plenty of room to get the White Mamba back on this roster. This team might be lucky to win 30 games with Rose out.

Someone who can at least shoot a 3 and isn't eligible for social security yet

Actually a pretty decent move - can shoot the 3 (upper 30's), has some ability off the dribble as well. I believe he can handle some PG although he's primarily another SG.

While the Bulls are making their moves to avoid the luxury tax (or to pay as little as possible), I think they've done ok this off-season. Jimmy Butler will get an opportunity to play solid bench minutes for Ronnie Brewer, and Kirk Hinrich, if healthy, is about as good as C.J. Watson. I do think losing Kyle Korver hurts some, but they have replaced him with 2 shooters (Radmanovic and Bellinelli) off the bench. Losing Asik hurt their defense, but it also means that Gibson will get even more minutes so the Bulls will play a 3 man rotation in most games and probably mix in Mohammed. Obviously, without Rose, this is a team that will probably be battling for a playoff spot, somewhere between 6 and 9 in the East, but, in a year where they just aren't going to pay without Rose, I think they have made some decent moves, despite them being financially driven.

That lineup seems really small to me. Well, Radmanovic is big but plays small. And Mohammed is big but plays old.

Marko Jaric on #Bulls training camp roster.

EDIT: Damn you McKracken. Never saw you hit this (in a manner of speaking) already. Pics stays though. You can never have enough shots of this one.

I know it's fun for everyone to Bulls bash these days, but thatt ain't bad. Good enough to win more games than you lose 'til Rose is ok...

The starting five is still SOLID, probably better than the Rose-less lineup that was run out there most of last year. What worries me is the awful bench that was assembled this summer. The "Bench Mob" played some lock-down defense, and I don't see any great defenders around anymore besides Taj. There could be some ugly stretches when the bench gets on the floor this season.

Looks like he's trying to recreate the Janet Jackson album cover sans the guy standing behind him. Should have had Marko Jaric cover the nips instead...

Well when Marcus Teague is starting by the 3rd week of the season you can count on Captain Kirk's D coming off the bench
