Perhaps Rose/Thibs are building a relationship with Gay. Gay has been playing with Rose on the same line, although they make Gay SF/PF.

However, that would be a great complimentary piece to Rose, I don't know how salary would work but it would require the Bulls to go with Mirotic at PF and move Gibson/Dunleavy.

Rose-Gay-Butler-Mirotic-Noah in 2015? Gay opted into Sacramento for 19 million this season, and

Best case scenario Gay/Cousins/Stauskas can play well enough to get us their #1 pick i the mid round.

Won't have near enough cap space to even put in a respectable offer...

Gay as a SG and McDermott as a PF.

At least its not another person saying Melo should have been our starting SG.

This is dumb. You don't sacrifice a core player among other assets to land... Rudy Gay.

All I know is that he's pretty dope in NBA2K on the Kings. He lets me rack up my dimes.

Would he fit in on the Bulls? Maybe. If you think Melo could have fit in on the Bulls, then there's no reason for you to believe Rudy Gay (who is essentially just a poor man's Melo) would have trouble fitting in on the Bulls. Granted, the dude would take a lot more bad shots and miss a lot more shots, but still, he can score.

I would rather go all in for somebody like Klay Thompson or JJ Redick. But wait and see what McDermott can do before anything happens.

Gay>Reddick

Gay is a nice piece, I prefer to Deshon Stevenson as well. He compliments us particularly well, can defend 3's in the NBA and 4's internationally, and just needs to shoot less, but has he played with a ball dominater that limited his shots?

I could see it, but the fact that he is commanding near max contract is hard to deal with, we are better served if Butler became a defensive version of Gay, or Snell got as good as him.

Rudy Gay would be a wonderful addition to the Bulls. A perfect addition. The 2nd scorer that they've needed ever since Rose arrived. It'll never happen but this is the kind of team that would win multiple championships. They are short right now in that necessity.
