This summer will be interesting as the Bulls have the team option Watson (which I doubt they will exercise), Korver is only guaranteed 500K of his contract, Brewer contract is up, and Asik contract is up as well.  It will be interesting to see what the Bulls do.  If JR wants to win he should prepare himself to pay the luxury tax.
 
Have to resign Watson with Pooh's injury and I want Asik back... now the figures need to be team friendly otherwise it's a bad look.

Have to find an upgrade over Watson. 
Aaron Brooks is better than nothing
 
I think Brewer and Korver are gone this summer. Korver's shooting is great, especially with Pooh but in the playoffs he can't even lose his man off screens.

I'd prefer an upgrade over CJ, someone who is more of a natural PG who can score when needed. I'm tired of seeing the offense getting initiated when there's 12 seconds or less left on the shot clock.

I forgot all about Aaron Brooks G... Would love to have him.

Hell I'll take Dragic.

I think Brewer and Watson need to go. Theyre both good at times but we both are nothing special. Korver id prefer to keep since his shooting does come in handy. Rip really came through for us this series. To be as frail as he was in the regular season, he was a warrior against the Sixers.

Keep Lucas, bench Boozer and make Taj Gibson a starter. We need as much athleticism on this team as possible. Possibly sign Josh Smith?

Dragic's play this season has me buying in that he can really help a contender.  Good instincts, nice size, can score a bit, and he's young.

i was convinced when he showed out vs the spurs/lakers in the playoffs when he was with the suns.  still dont know why they let him go.  thought he was gonna be the one to step in for nash.  mini ginobili at the pg position
 
Honestly don't want Lucas back anyone of us can do what he does given a trainer and professional basketball coaching lol
 
I think we are going to have to pony up some money for Omer. I feel Booz will be around one more year. I would love to get Dragic but he might cost too much. Ronnie should be gone to get Jimmy some time. I am indifferent on Kyle. Rip proved he can still play, especially in the fourth quarter. If CJ is gone we are going to need someone who can start most of the year. Who starts at the 3 with Lu out for a couple months. JR its time to stop being cheap.
 
They aren't going to amnesty Boozer. Jerry isn't going to pay him $50M to go play somewhere else just so we can get some cap space. The reality is, we're probably going to Extend Taj and Omer and call it a summer. Nikola needs to get here ASAP

[h1]Dump Carlos Boozer? It’s complicated[/h1]
Chicago Bulls, Playoffs | Comments
Carlos Boozer quaked under the burden of being the Bulls’ first scoring option after Derrick Rose tore his ACL in Game 1 against the 76ers. This isn’t shocking: Boozer is not an NBA first option, even if he made $13.5 million this season and will make only about $500,000 less than what Chicago’s real first option will receive next season when Rose’s five-year contract extension kicks in. That tiny 2012-13 salary gap between Boozer ($15 million) and Rose ($15.5 million) speaks more to the difficulty of building an NBA team and signing the right kind of second option, at the right price and at the right time, than it does about Chicago’s management or Boozer’s place in the league.
Boozer just couldn’t do enough on offense to carry Chicago past a scoring-challenged Philadelphia team that is about to start a seven-game race to 80 points against the Celtics. The 30-year-old power forward wasn’t really bad until Game 6 on Thursday, when he shot just 1-of-11 and sat the last 16 minutes as coach Tom Thibodeau rode the same lineup into the ground. He was a combined 2o-of-44 in Games 4 and 5, with 10 assists, and had Chicago in position to win Game 4 in Philadelphia before getting swatted out of a pick-and-roll in crunch time and then fumbling the ball out of another one less than a minute later.

The Bulls ran those plays for Boozer for a reason, though: He is skilled enough and threatening enough to shift defenses a bit his way, creating space for others. Some of those open jumpers that power forward Taj Gibson got flashing to the foul line or hanging around the baseline, for instance, came in part because defenses converged on Boozer during pick-and-rolls or as Boozer slithered around picks near the rim. Point guard C.J. Watson got open looks down the stretch of Game 4 because Philadelphia was more worried about containing Boozer on the roll. Sixers forward Thaddeus Young was late helping on Luol Deng’s “and-one
